Running on bunny.net

bunny.net is a global platform for content delivery and edge computing. Magic Containers lets you deploy and run containerized applications across bunny.net's global network with built-in CDN integration.

You can deploy Umami alongside a PostgreSQL database using Magic Containers.

Setup

1. Create a new application

1. Go to Magic Containers in the bunny.net dashboard and click Add App.
2. Give your application a name (e.g. umami).
3. Choose Single Region deployment since this is a stateful application with a database.

2. Add the PostgreSQL container

1. Click Add Container.
2. Enter the name postgres.
3. From the Registry dropdown, select DockerHub Public.
4. Set the image to library/postgres and the tag to 16-alpine.

bunny.net will auto-detect the environment variables. Update them with your preferred values:

• POSTGRES_USER = umami
• POSTGRES_PASSWORD = choose a strong password
• POSTGRES_DB = umami
• PGDATA = /var/lib/postgresql/data/pgdata

Setting PGDATA to a subdirectory of the mount path prevents a permissions conflict between the volume and the PostgreSQL startup process.

Add a 1 GB persistent volume mounted at /var/lib/postgresql/data.

3. Add the Umami container

1. Click Add Container.
2. Enter the name umami.
3. From the Registry dropdown, select DockerHub Public.
4. Set the image to umamisoftware/umami and the tag to postgresql-latest.

Update the environment variables:

• DATABASE_URL = postgresql://umami:<your-password>@localhost:5432/umami
• APP_SECRET = a random string used for encryption
• DISABLE_TELEMETRY = 1

Replace <your-password> with the POSTGRES_PASSWORD you set in the previous step.

Add a CDN endpoint pointing to container port 3000.

4. Deploy

Review your configuration and click Confirm and Create. Once the containers are running, open the CDN endpoint URL to access Umami.

Log in with the default credentials — username admin and password umami — and change your password immediately under Settings → Profile.

Notes

• Both containers run in the same pod and communicate over localhost.
• Data is stored in the PostgreSQL persistent volume and survives redeployments.
• You can update the Umami image tag to upgrade to newer versions.
