Supabase is the open-source Firebase alternative. This cloudimg image self-hosts the official Supabase stack on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, giving you a complete application backend in minutes: a full PostgreSQL database with auto-generated REST and GraphQL APIs, authentication, realtime subscriptions, S3-compatible file storage and a polished Studio dashboard, all behind an nginx reverse proxy on port 80, with data on a dedicated Azure data disk and per-VM secrets generated on the first boot of every VM. Backed by 24/7 expert support.
Complete Backend
A full PostgreSQL 17 database with auto-generated REST and GraphQL APIs (PostgREST), authentication (GoTrue), realtime subscriptions, S3-compatible file storage, and the Supabase Studio dashboard for managing your database, tables, SQL, auth and APIs.
Official Stack
The official docker-compose stack (postgres, kong API gateway, gotrue, postgrest, realtime, storage, imgproxy, postgres-meta, studio, supavisor) runs under Docker behind nginx on port 80; the Studio dashboard and every API are reached through that one endpoint.
Dedicated Data Disk
The PostgreSQL data and uploaded files live on a dedicated, independently resizable Azure data disk mounted at /var/lib/supabase, separate from the OS disk and re-provisioned with every VM.
Secure First Boot
On the first boot of every VM a fresh set of per-VM secrets is generated - a unique POSTGRES_PASSWORD, a random JWT_SECRET, the matching anon and service_role API keys signed with it, and a Studio dashboard password - written to a root-only file, so no two VMs ever share keys.
