There are two easy ways to dive into Wikibase quickly.

Wikibase.cloud
Wikibase.cloud is Wikimedia Deutschland's cloud-based service offering hosted Wikibase instances. No hardware required -- just your data and your data-modeling expertise.

Early access to the newly launched service is currently invite-only -- you can request access during the launch phase using this application.

Docker images ("Suite")
You can be running your own Wikibase on your own machine in a matter of minutes, thanks to Docker and docker-compose.

If you're familiar with Docker, dive right into the instructions on our Docker install page.
