Overview

Home Assistant VPS

Home Assistant is a powerful open-source home-automation platform. Running Home Assistant Core (in a container) on a Linux VPS gives you an always-on hub with remote access — useful for cloud automations, dashboards and integrations that don’t need local radios.

With full root you deploy it via Docker, secure it with SSL, and access it from anywhere. Local device protocols like Zigbee/Z-Wave need hardware at home; cloud and network integrations run great on a VPS.
