Dokploy Cloud is the managed version of Dokploy. Instead of installing and maintaining Dokploy on your own server, the **control plane** (UI, database, and management layer) is hosted by us — you just connect your own servers and deploy.
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
With **Self-Hosted** Dokploy, everything runs on a single server: the UI, the database (PostgreSQL), Redis, Traefik, and your applications — all on the same machine. This works well for small setups, but as you scale, your management layer competes for resources with your actual workloads.
|
|
|
|
**Dokploy Cloud** separates these concerns:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
┌──────────────────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────────┐

|
|
│ │ Monitoring │ │ │ └───────────────────┘ │
|
|
│ └────────────┘ │ │ │
|
|
└──────────────────────────────┘ └─────────────────────────┘
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- **Control plane** (Cloud): Dashboard, user management, deployment orchestration, monitoring dashboard, and notifications.
|
|
- **Data plane** (Your servers): Your actual applications, databases, Traefik, and a lightweight monitoring agent.
|
|
|
|
Your code and data **never leave your servers**. Dokploy Cloud only manages the orchestration.
|
|
|
|
## Key benefits
|
|
|
|
| Benefit | Description |
|
|
|---------|-------------|
|
|
| **No management overhead** | No need to maintain the Dokploy instance itself — updates, backups, and uptime are handled for you |
|
|
| **100% server resources for your apps** | The UI and management database don't compete with your workloads |
|
|
| **Multi-server from day one** | Connect as many servers as you need from any provider (AWS, GCP, Azure, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, etc.) |
|
|
| **Automatic updates** | Always on the latest version of Dokploy without manual upgrades |
|
|
| **Support** | Direct support via email/chat (Startup) or priority SLA (Enterprise) |
|
|
|
|
## Getting started
|
|
|
|
1. Register on [Dokploy Cloud](https://app.dokploy.com).
|
|
2. Add a server by providing the SSH connection details (IP, port, SSH key).
|
|
3. Dokploy Cloud will set up the server automatically (Docker, Traefik, monitoring agent).
|
|
4. Start deploying your applications, databases, and compose stacks.
|
|
|
|
<Callout type="info">
|
|
You can connect servers from **any provider** — they just need to be reachable via SSH. You can even mix providers (e.g., Hetzner for production, DigitalOcean for staging).

## When to use Cloud vs Self-Hosted
|
|
|
|
| Use Cloud when... | Use Self-Hosted when... |
|
|
|-------------------|------------------------|
|
|
| You don't want to maintain the Dokploy instance | You want full control over everything |
|
|
| You need multi-server from the start | You have a single server and want to keep it simple |
|
|
| You want built-in monitoring without extra config | You already have your own monitoring stack |
|
|
| You prefer automatic updates | You want to control when updates happen |
|
|
| You need HA for the management layer | Budget is the top priority |
|
