Dokploy

Dokploy is a free platform as a service you host yourself. It closes the gap between a bare VPS and a managed host, giving deployments, databases, backups and monitoring on a server you already pay for.

Installation is a single shell command run on the VPS. Traefik integration handles routing and load balancing automatically, Docker Compose is supported natively for multi service applications, and Docker Swarm scales an application across several nodes.

The dashboard covers the operational work that follows a deployment.

• Applications: deploy Node.js, PHP, Python, Go, Ruby and other stacks.
• Databases: create and manage MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MariaDB, libsql and Redis instances.
• Backups: schedule database backups to an external storage destination.
• Monitoring: watch CPU, memory, storage and network usage for every resource.
• Notifications: report deployment success or failure to Slack, Discord, Telegram or email.
• Templates: install open source projects such as Plausible, Pocketbase and Cal.com in a single click.

A CLI and an API cover the same ground as the interface for anyone scripting their workflow, and multi server support manages deployments on remote machines from one place. A hosted cloud version exists for teams that would rather skip the installation entirely.
