From an idea to a running application
Have website or application code that you want others to access? Start with Flash Deploy, add MySQL to store data and Redis when you need caching. Choose VPS when you need to manage the operating system yourself.
Where to start
- Choose products and learn the basic terms if you are new to servers.
- Follow the Quickstart to get your first public URL.
- Add data and caching when your application needs them. Connect products within the same organization using private networking.
- Read the security and responsibility guide before production. Use troubleshooting when you get stuck.
The operating workflow
Create a project, bring in source, provision the data services you need, configure environment variables and domains, deploy, then use logs, metrics and Billing to understand how your app is running.
