DollarDeploy is:
- a hosted application deployment control plane
- a way to deploy applications to servers you control
- a PaaS-like deployment experience for VPS/cloud servers
- a server provisioning and application operations platform
- a native systemd deployment platform with optional Docker Compose support
DollarDeploy is not:
- a VPS provider
- a hyperscale cloud provider
- a serverless compute platform
- a Kubernetes distribution
- a self-hosted control plane
- an open-source deployment panel
- a replacement for the underlying cloud/VPS provider
The simplest mental model is: DollarDeploy manages how your application gets onto and operates on your server; your infrastructure provider supplies the server.
