Prepare the Environment & Steps of Metabase Deployment

Prepare the Environment
Ensure the server or virtual machine has a supported operating system (Linux recommended), sufficient CPU and memory resources, and required ports open. Install Docker and Docker Compose to support containerized deployment.

Steps to Install Metabase

  1. StepsPrepare the System
    Ensure the system meets the minimum requirements, including a Linux operating system, at least 2 GB of MetabaseRAM, Deploymentstable internet access, and administrator (sudo) privileges.

  2. Step1:Install EnableDocker
    Install Docker on the system to enable container-based deployment of Metabase. Verify the installation to ensure Docker is running correctly.

  3. (Optional but Recommended) Install Docker Compose
    Install Docker Compose to manage multi-container applications, especially when using an external database such as PostgreSQL.

  4. Pull the Metabase Image
    Download the official Metabase Docker image from Docker Hub to ensure a stable and startsupported Docker:installation.

    sudo

  5. systemctl enable docker

    sudo systemctl start docker

  6. StepRun 2:the CreateMetabase Container
    Start the Metabase container using Docker or Docker Compose and expose the default Metabase port (3000).

  7. Access Metabase Web Interface
    Open a directoryweb forbrowser Metabase:and access Metabase using the server IP address or hostname followed by port 3000.

    mkdir

  8. -p ~/metabase

     cd ~/metabase

  9. StepComplete 3:Initial Setup
    Create docker-compose.yml:an administrator account, configure basic settings, and connect Metabase to the required data sources.

  10. nanoVerify docker-compose.ymlInstallation
    Confirm that Metabase is running correctly by creating a test question or dashboard.
