Probably not average.  You will need the ability (or the sysadmin to)
install and run perl modules and the zebra indexing server software,
and to configure cron (timed) jobs.  That probably means some sort of
Virtual Private Server or at least very helpful server manager.

I did some work on this back in 2.0 and it was possible (but a bit
fiddly) then, but things have moved on a lot since.

Of course, there are lots of us in the support directory offering Koha
hosting...

Good luck!
