Beacon v1.5 — Self-hosted Docker images
You asked, repeatedly, and we listened. Beacon v1.5 brings official self-hosted Docker images. Run the exact same analytics you get on Beacon Cloud, entirely on your own infrastructure.
What shipped
- Official images:
usebeacon/beaconandusebeacon/beacon-collector, published to Docker Hub and tagged per release. - One-command start: A maintained
docker-compose.ymlthat brings up the app, collector, and Postgres in a single step. - Migrations on boot: Schema upgrades run automatically, so
docker compose pullis the whole upgrade path. - Same privacy model: No cookies, no third-party calls — your visitor data never leaves your server.
We've documented the full setup, including reverse-proxy and TLS notes, in the self-hosting guide. If you hit a snag, the install troubleshooting section covers the usual suspects.
Funnels from v1.4 work identically on self-hosted instances — nothing is gated behind Cloud.
What's next: we're turning our attention to dashboard performance. Big speedups coming in v1.6.
If you're self-hosting, tell us how the rollout went:
Happy hosting, the Beacon team
