Matomo is included by default and treated as a required part of the Matomo stack.
This stack service is based on Matomo 5 and keeps the service-specific setup for Matomo in one place.
It is linked to MariaDB and OpenSMTPD inside the stack.
Available versions include 8.3.
Review the operational capabilities exposed by Matomo inside this stack, including backups, imports, configs, settings, cron, actions, storage, and service links where they exist.
Keep one-off and lifecycle commands with the service instead of relying on manual runbooks.
See how services are wired together so dependencies stay consistent across environments.
