# Deploy open source analytics in one click

Templates in this category deploy self-hosted analytics tools in one click. Umami and Plausible cover privacy-focused web analytics, Metabase and Apache Superset handle dashboards and business intelligence, and PostHog brings product analytics. Each template creates the app and its database in your own Railway project.

Your analytics data stays in infrastructure you control, on always-on servers with usage based pricing and a free trial.

## Common questions about Analytics templates

### How do I self-host web analytics?

Pick a template like Umami or Plausible and click Deploy. Railway creates the app and its database in your own project, and you add the tracking snippet to your site. Most analytics templates are live in a few minutes.

### Can I self-host an alternative to Google Analytics?

Yes. Umami and Plausible are open source, privacy-focused alternatives with one-click templates. You own the data because it lives in a database inside your own project.

### Do analytics templates include a database?

Yes. Templates ship with their required database preconfigured, usually Postgres or MySQL, with connection variables already wired to the app.

### Can I run business intelligence dashboards on Railway?

Yes. Metabase and Apache Superset both have one-click templates. Connect them to your existing databases and they run 24/7 on always-on servers.
