Miraheze is a non-profit MediaWiki wikifarm similar to Orain which was set up in August 2015. As of August 2017, they host about 2300 wikis (including private ones).

Hosting

Based on their Finance page, they operate on a rather tight budget with hosting provided by RamNode.[1] As of September 2016, their whole cluster sits on approximately 12 CPU cores, 7 GB RAM and ~1 TB of disk space[2], hardly enough to survive a DDoS attack (which they have experienced multiple times before). The finances seems to suggest that they have enough assets to survive for about 1 year without any growth.

The wikifarm also hosts the All The Tropes wiki, which is also the largest wiki that they host.

Backups

Miraheze makes their own backups of their services regularly to an offsite server (provided by Backupsy).[3] WikiTeam also managed to grab about 685 public wikis hosted on its cluster in September 2016.[4] and in April 2017[5]

A list of all wikis can be found here.
