Media Server
Jellyfin
Self-hosted media streaming for movies, shows, music, and home libraries.
What this service needs
Ports
- 8096/tcp (web)
- 8920/tcp optional for HTTPS
Storage
- Media library volume
- Config volume
- Cache/transcoding volume
Notes before you ship it
- Transcoding can be CPU-heavy; validate hardware acceleration early if multiple users will stream.
- Media paths, permissions, and backup scope should be documented before the library grows.
Want this in your stack without the guesswork?
We can assess fit, deployment shape, backup approach, and what it will take to run this service like real infrastructure instead of a side project.
