# Linux VPS / Dedicated Server

{% hint style="info" %}
The deployment steps are the same as the [Manual Local Setup](https://docking.shipsaas.tech/getting-started/run-on-local).
{% endhint %}

**Different things here**, you need to:

* Setup your internal domain & connection between services
* Uses NGINX/Apache to serve DocKing

#### New from v1.3.0

You can run the application in high-perf mode, check this out: [Octane](https://docking.shipsaas.tech/getting-started/octane-high-perf-mode)

### Note

As recommended, use DocKing as **an Internal Microservice** that empowers other microservices.

It is OK to publish DocKing externally (your choice). For the highest security & least concern, keep DocKing in your internal layer and let DocKing empower your other services.
