This is not strictly self-hosted per se, but I am looking for your guidance.
I am standing up a wiki. I want it to use available FOSS wiki frameworks, all our self-hosted loving things.
However: the probably of this becoming a moderately trafficked page are high. So I also need to consider scale (cloudflare, captcha, auth, do I use Vercel? etc.), light-weightness (this is a Wiki but not too massive), and all that jazz. This is also someone who won’t like alt-wikis and is a very layman, mainstream audience. So “wikipedia but SEO friendly/article style” is also a plus. It will be less deeply linked than Wikipedia across pages, but is still a repository for info that will be revisited for its different components for a long time.
People with experience spinning up or hosting trafficked wiki pages: what do I do?
Thanks gang.
Does it need to be self-hosted? Having someone else manage the infrastructure is a huge load off your plate.
No, not self-hosted. That’s why I put the caveat in here. I am a self-hoster, but this is beyond that scope, but I still want that vibe / workflow where possible.
