Managed cloud containers # Managed cloud containers Run containerized applications on a managed platform. Available resources and features depend on your plan and configuration; service creation and deployment are currently paused.

Service creation and deployment are currently paused. ### Package and API connectivity Access to package registries and external APIs depends on network configuration and the service provider. No proxy, VPN, or regional connectivity guarantee is implied. ### Persistent storage options Persistent volumes can retain application data across container replacements when configured and supported by the service. Check the storage and backup settings for your plan. ### Resource scaling and service health Scaling behavior depends on the service’s configured resources and autoscaling settings. Health checks can inform rollouts; they do not guarantee uninterrupted availability. ## Frequently asked questions about cloud containers Answers about container deployment, data storage, and fixed monthly packages: What is a cloud container, and how does it compare with shared hosting or a VPS? Do I need to be a developer or Linux specialist to use containers? Will my files and database be deleted when a container restarts or updates? How is container hosting billed? How does Deplomo connect to external services? How do I connect a custom domain and certificate? You can manage services through the console; available actions depend on your account and plan. ## Managed container hosting for applications With a VPS, you manage the operating system, firewall, web server, and container runtime yourself. A managed platform handles some of that infrastructure, while its features and limits depend on the provider and plan. Shared hosting and managed container platforms offer different tools and resource limits. Deplomo provides containerized services with configured resources and platform-managed components. Review the service configuration and plan details to understand what is included. Deplomo aims to make container hosting easier to manage. The available features, service locations, and resource limits depend on the plan and platform configuration. ### Cloud container hosting considerations for businesses Choose a hosting setup based on your application, resource needs, and operational requirements. Review the platform’s limits and current availability before moving a service. - **Platform-managed infrastructure:** The platform manages parts of the underlying infrastructure. Operating-system updates, network operations, and monitoring depend on the service and platform configuration. - **Build and deployment workflow:** When deployment is available, a configured application can be built and released through the platform. Service creation and deployment are currently paused. - **External service connectivity:** Applications may need access to package registries and external APIs. Configure credentials and network settings, and check each provider’s access policies. - **Persistent storage:** Configure a persistent volume for files or database data that must remain available across container replacements. Persistence depends on the service configuration; maintain backups of important data. - **Resource scaling and health checks:** Autoscaling and rollout behavior depend on the configured service and platform settings. Health checks can guide rollout decisions, but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. - **Custom domains and HTTPS:** Domain and certificate options depend on the platform’s current configuration. Check available settings in the dashboard; service creation is currently paused. ### What kinds of applications can run on the Deplomo container platform? The platform supports configured containerized applications and curated templates, subject to plan limits and compatibility. Service creation and deployment are currently paused. - **WordPress sites and online stores:** Use the dedicated WordPress hosting option for WordPress and WooCommerce sites; available resources depend on the selected plan. - **Managed database services:** PostgreSQL and MySQL services can use persistent storage and private project networking where configured. Availability depends on the selected service and plan. - **Caching and queue services:** Redis can be used as a cache or queue service when available and configured for your project. - **Automation platforms and AI tools:** You can configure services such as n8n or Open WebUI for your workflow, subject to template availability, resource limits, and provider requirements. - **Web applications and microservices:** The platform supports applications built with technologies such as Node.js, Python, and Laravel when configured for the service. Resources and network access depend on the plan and settings. ### How to prepare a container service The Deplomo console provides a guided setup flow. Service creation and deployment are currently paused. - **Open the Deplomo dashboard:** Sign in to your account to review available services and plan settings. - **Choose a deployment method:** Select an available template or configure a compatible Docker image or Git repository when service creation is enabled. - **Review the resource limits:** Choose a package and configure resources within its limits. Any changes depend on plan availability and service settings. - **Configure the service and domain:** Follow the dashboard options for service configuration and domains. Service creation is currently paused. ### Container hosting, networking, and deployment A service zone can help you choose a broad deployment region. Network routes and latency vary; package and API access depend on provider policies and configuration. Deplomo provides managed container infrastructure and private project networking where configured. It does not guarantee access to every external service, a specific route, bandwidth, or latency. ### Who might use a managed container platform? A managed platform may suit teams that want to use containers without managing every part of the underlying infrastructure: - **Online businesses and entrepreneurs:** Teams looking for a dashboard to manage application services, subject to the selected package and current platform availability. - **Startups and early-stage projects:** Teams can compare package limits and fixed monthly costs when planning for growth. - **Web service providers:** Agencies can review whether the platform’s project separation, service limits, and management tools fit their customer workflows. - **Software and engineering teams:** Teams can use deployment and service-management tools where those features are available and enabled.
| Comparison criteria | Managed container platform | Unmanaged VPS | Traditional shared hosting |
|---|---|---|---|
| Level of infrastructure management | Some platform components are managed; service configuration and application operations remain your responsibility. | You manage the operating system, network, and deployment setup. | Features depend on the shared host and plan. |
| Setup and delivery time | Deployment time depends on the application and current service availability. | Setup time depends on the application, configuration, and available deployment workflow. | Setup effort and available features depend on the hosting provider and plan. |
| Availability under load depends on resources, application design, and configuration. | Autoscaling depends on the service’s configured limits and platform settings. | A self-managed server can require you to monitor and configure its resources. | Service restrictions depend on the shared host and its terms. |
| Package registry and API access | Access depends on the configured network and external provider policies. | External service setup depends on the provider and your configuration. | Package and API availability depends on each provider and network path. |
| Isolation and resource limits | Containers run with configured resources and platform isolation; plan limits apply. | You configure virtual machines, ports, and services on a self-managed VPS. | Resource sharing depends on the shared host and plan. |
| SSL certificate | Free, automatic issuance and renewal | You manage certificate configuration on a self-managed server. | Available domain and certificate features depend on the control panel and provider. |
| Pricing model | Fixed monthly EUR Hobby and Pro packages with zone-specific prices and hard limits. | Pricing and contract terms vary by provider. | Review the provider’s terms before choosing a plan. |
