Application platform

Deploy apps from your code, a Docker image or a template. Builds, config, private networking, databases, and metered billing.

  1. 1

    How the application platform works

    Deploy an app from your code, a Docker image or a template. Each runs in its own private guest, billed for what it uses.

    Environment variables

    Set configuration and secrets, in bulk from a .env file. Values are encrypted; a change stages a release.

    Private networks and projects

    Apps in a project reach each other by name; connect a network to reach your servers and databases.

    Make an application reachable from the internet

    Apps are private by design. Put a Cloud Firewall in front to publish one on a domain with HTTPS.

    Managed databases for your apps

    Create PostgreSQL, MySQL or Redis, then attach it to apps in the same project by your own variable names.

    Deploy a new release, roll back to an older one with its own config, restart in place, or cancel a build.

    Logs, console and metrics

    Watch live logs, open a browser shell into the running container, and see CPU, memory and traffic.

    How applications are billed

    Metered on what the app actually uses: CPU, memory, disk and egress, sampled each minute and billed hourly.
