# Self-Hosting Roadmap

## Voice Infrastructure Decision

The primary blocker for self-hosting is the **voice infrastructure choice**. The hosted version of Magne uses **LiveKit** for real-time audio/video, but LiveKit's self-hosting complexity may not be appropriate for all deployment targets.

### Options Under Evaluation

| Option                    | Pros                                     | Cons                                              |
| ------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
| **LiveKit (self-hosted)** | Battle-tested, already integrated        | Complex to deploy, resource-intensive             |
| **Jitsi Meet**            | Easier self-hosting, established project | Different architecture, requires integration work |
| **Alternative SFU**       | Could find optimal balance               | Unknown integration effort                        |

### Decision Criteria

* **Deployment simplicity** — Can a sysadmin deploy it with Docker Compose?
* **Resource efficiency** — Reasonable CPU/RAM for small team deployments
* **Feature parity** — Must support the same voice/video capabilities as hosted
* **Maintenance burden** — Ongoing updates and security patches

## Timeline

This is not a committed timeline — it's a rough indication of priorities:

1. **Phase 1:** Resolve voice infra decision
2. **Phase 2:** Docker Compose manifests for API + DB + voice
3. **Phase 3:** Configuration reference and deployment guide
4. **Phase 4:** Upgrade tooling and migration scripts
