# Deploy and Host Tracearr on Railway

Tracearr is the modern monitoring platform for Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby. It gives media server owners real-time analytics, an interactive stream map with geolocation, and intelligent detection rules to catch account sharing — all from a single unified dashboard. Free, open source, and self-hosted.

## About Hosting Tracearr

This Railway template deploys Tracearr as a turnkey, one-click setup — no manual configuration required. Everything is pre-wired and ready to go. Once deployed, open the web UI, connect your Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby servers, and you'll immediately start seeing real-time session data, stream locations on the world map, and activity analytics. Set up detection rules to automatically flag suspicious behavior like impossible travel or simultaneous streaming from different cities, and get notified instantly via webhooks. The template handles all infrastructure so you can focus on managing your media servers.

## Common Use Cases

- **Account Sharing Detection**: Catch users sharing credentials with impossible travel alerts, simultaneous location detection, device velocity tracking, concurrent stream limits, and geo-restrictions
- **Real-Time Stream Monitoring**: See who's watching what, from where, on which device — across all your Plex, Jellyfin, and Emby servers in one unified dashboard with a live interactive world map
- **Analytics & Trust Management**: Track watch history, bandwidth usage, streaming patterns, and device activity over time. Automated trust scores build behavior profiles for each user, with real-time alerts via Discord and webhooks when violations occur

## Dependencies for Tracearr Hosting

The Railway template includes all required dependencies: Web application, TimescaleDB database, and Redis message queue.
