Where Does Shynet Store Stats?
Where self hosted Shynet keeps stats in database on Linux servers. Full paths are listed below. More below.
Last updated
Shynet is cookieless analytics with server storage. The database holds services, hits, and sessions. Tracking scripts run from the same host.
Same database means same dashboards. Exact paths vary by Docker versus bare installs. Keep backups on schedule. One missing table restores services without history. For moves, stop writes first to avoid split counts during copies. When in doubt, verify paths inside the app before trusting a remembered folder. Screenshots of settings help when support asks for reproduction steps later.

Stats live in the server database with hit history. Back up the database stopped. Match releases before restore. Tracking scripts run from host.
Frequently asked questions
How do I migrate Shynet to a new server?
Back up the Shynet database with services stopped, then install the same release on the new server before restore. Stats follow the database. Mixed releases can refuse old schemas, so match versions first. Keep admin keys separate.
Does Shynet back up stats?
Yes, in the server database per service with hit history attached. The host holds a working copy plus script cache. Views rebuild after restore. Export CSVs from dashboards for records, since the data directory alone is working state.
