هاستینگ Matrix homeserver روی سخت‌افزار offshore

A Matrix homeserver gets heavier as the federated room set grows — Synapse's Postgres database can outgrow a 60 GB disk in a year of active federation with 50 active users. Sized to vps-business at 240 GB NVMe minimum; for a public homeserver expect to outgrow that into ded-shield within 12–18 months. The CPU profile is bursty (encryption key shuffling), not sustained.

Federation requires inbound 8448 (or your TLS-terminated variant) with stable IPv4 — same constraint as a Lightning node. We don't filter Matrix federation traffic, don't cap connection count, and don't fingerprint Synapse's worker pattern. Multi-worker Synapse setups (master + 3 workers) run fine on vps-pro; for performance-critical public homeservers, ded-shield with 2× NVMe lets you split Postgres onto its own disk.
