Clouddley

Clouddley is a robust backend infrastructure platform designed to give you the simplicity of a fully managed service while retaining complete control over your underlying compute resources. It solves the critical challenge of complexity and vendor lock-in, enabling you to run applications, databases, and AI workloads on your own Virtual Private Servers (VPS), virtual machines, or bare metal without extensive, dedicated DevOps teams. Clouddley is built for developers, SaaS companies, and infrastructure teams prioritizing ownership, cost efficiency, and deployment speed.

Key Features

Clouddley streamlines the deployment lifecycle, offering advanced automation and resilience features that typically require significant manual configuration.

🌎 Deploy to Any VM (Bring Your Own Compute)

Clouddley eliminates vendor lock-in by allowing you to connect and deploy seamlessly to any existing server, virtual machine, or bare metal, regardless of the cloud provider or Linux OS. This capability supports true multi-cloud strategies and allows you to maximize your existing infrastructure investments. Deployments are handled with zero downtime, featuring auto runtime detection and native Git integration for smooth CI/CD workflows.

🛡️ Secure by Default Infrastructure

Every application deployed through Clouddley ships with essential security and network components automatically provisioned. You benefit from Managed SSL/DDoS protection right out of the box, ensuring secure connections and baseline defense against common attacks. Additionally, the platform includes integrated Secret Management and Built-in Load Balancing to handle traffic distribution and protect sensitive configuration data.

🔄 Instant, Automated Rollbacks

Maintain application stability and build confidence in your deployment process. Clouddley provides comprehensive rollback functionality, allowing you to revert to any previous version instantly. You can trigger manual rollbacks for control or rely on automatic rollbacks upon deployment failure, ensuring minimal disruption, zero downtime, and no data loss, even when updates encounter unforeseen errors.

💾 Integrated Data and Broker Services

Beyond application hosting, Clouddley simplifies the provisioning and management of critical data infrastructure. Easily deploy and manage popular database engines—including Postgres, MySQL, MongoDB, and Redis (Valkey)—directly onto your own infrastructure. This feature ensures compliance readiness, low latency, and simplified maintenance, alongside support for brokers like NATS and RabbitMQ for message queuing.

Use Cases

Clouddley provides tangible benefits across various development and operations scenarios:

1. Launching a Compliance-Focused SaaS: If your application requires data residency or strict regulatory compliance (e.g., healthcare or finance), you must maintain control over the physical location of your databases. Use Clouddley to deploy your application and a PostgreSQL database directly onto a VM in a specific region, ensuring low latency and adherence to data sovereignty laws, all managed through a unified, simplified interface.
2. Optimizing Cloud Spend and Leverage Existing Credits: Instead of paying premium PaaS fees or being constrained by provider limits, connect Clouddley to your existing DigitalOcean Droplets, AWS EC2 instances, or GCP Compute Engine VMs. You maintain full control over hardware costs and utilization, drastically lowering your total cloud expenditure while gaining managed features like zero-downtime deployment and scaling.
3. Streamlining Microservice Deployment and Maintenance: For complex systems with multiple microservices written in different languages (e.g., a Next.js frontend, a Go API, and a Python worker), Clouddley automatically detects the runtime for each service. Connect the respective GitHub or Bitbucket repositories, and Clouddley handles the build, deployment, and logging for all services simultaneously, ensuring consistency across diverse technology stacks running on the same underlying infrastructure.

Why Choose Clouddley?

Clouddley is distinct because it solves the trade-off between control and convenience. You gain the operational efficiency of a managed platform without surrendering ownership or being restricted by a single vendor's ecosystem.

• Freedom from Vendor Lock-In: By adhering to the Bring Your Own Compute (BYOC) model, Clouddley ensures that your infrastructure is portable. You can run anywhere, move anytime, and keep maximizing your existing infrastructure credits across multiple Linux operating systems and cloud providers.
• Built for Resilience: Features like instant, automatic rollbacks and built-in load balancing mean you spend less time manually configuring fail-safes and more time developing features. This focus on stability allows SaaS teams to scale from MVP to millions of users with confidence.
• Zero DevOps Pain: Clouddley abstracts away the need for complex container orchestration setup, automated SSL provisioning, and manual log aggregation. It handles auto runtime detection and Dockerfile integration, allowing developers to focus purely on application code while the platform manages the underlying deployment mechanics.

Conclusion

Clouddley delivers a powerful, flexible, and cost-effective solution for modern backend infrastructure. By combining ownership with operational simplicity, it empowers developers to deploy faster, scale smarter, and remain in control of their entire compute environment.
