# GitLab CE hosting

GitLab Community Edition brings Git repositories and code collaboration together. Host your development workspace on a VPS and organise projects and teams.

- Centralise Git repositories
- Review changes through merge requests
- Organise issue tracking

Size the server for users, repositories and CI jobs. Runners consume additional resources; plan where they run and how backups work.

## From shared code to reviewed changes

A team can centralise code, propose changes in branches and review them before merging. Merge requests give technical discussions context, while issue tracking records the work still to do. This also suits small teams that want to stop exchanging project files manually.

## Separate repositories from test execution

Pipelines require configuration and runners capable of executing the planned jobs. Budget their resources alongside GitLab and restrict access to deployment secrets. Include repository, artifact and log growth when estimating storage.

## Are CI runners included in the price?

The price covers the VPS. Runner configuration and additional resources for your pipelines must be planned for your project.
