Frigate is a Docker container that can be run on any Docker host including as a [Home Assistant Add-on](https://www.home-assistant.io/addons/). Note that the Home Assistant Add-on is **not** the same thing as the integration. The [integration](/integrations/home-assistant) is required to integrate Frigate into Home Assistant, whether you are running Frigate as a standalone Docker container or as a Home Assistant Add-on.

The Frigate container also stores logs in shm, which can take up to **40MB**, so make sure to take this into account in your math as well. The Frigate container also stores logs in shm, which can take up to **40MB**, so make sure to take this into account in your math as well.
You can calculate the **minimum** shm size for each camera with the following formula using the resolution specified for detect: <ShmCalculator/>
```console
# Template for one camera without logs, replace <width> and <height>
$ python -c 'print("{:.2f}MB".format((<width> * <height> * 1.5 * 20 + 270480) / 1048576))'
# Example for 1280x720, including logs
$ python -c 'print("{:.2f}MB".format((1280 * 720 * 1.5 * 20 + 270480) / 1048576 + 40))'
66.63MB
# Example for eight cameras detecting at 1280x720, including logs
$ python -c 'print("{:.2f}MB".format(((1280 * 720 * 1.5 * 20 + 270480) / 1048576) * 8 + 40))'
253MB
```
The shm size cannot be set per container for Home Assistant add-ons. However, this is probably not required since by default Home Assistant Supervisor allocates `/dev/shm` with half the size of your total memory. If your machine has 8GB of memory, chances are that Frigate will have access to up to 4GB without any additional configuration. The shm size cannot be set per container for Home Assistant add-ons.
