Thindeck.com is a web hosting that deploys itself.
How it works:
- You create a
Dockerfile
in your Github repo - You give us your Github repo coordinates (and a private SSH key, if necessary)
- We pull your repo and start a container (with a public IP and open ports)
- Every five minutes we pull your repo and restart a container on changes
- You pay for our CPU usage (per load!) and traffic (per Gb)
We're aware of their existence (you also should be):
- aws.amazon.com
- heroku.com
- cloudbees.com
- quay.io
- stackdock.com
- digitalocean.com
- orchardup.com
Our advantages are:
- you don't need to "push/deploy", we pull instead (means big convenience)
- we charge per CPU load, not per hour (means big saving)
What Thindeck can be used for:
- Hosting of simple stateless PHP/Python/Ruby/etc websites (as an alternative of a traditional FTP-deployable shared hosting)
- Pre-production testing and staging
