The DIY VPS Path
- Manual security patches and OS updates
- Complex networking and firewall setup
- DIY database backups and monitoring
- Hidden costs in time and maintenance
Stop wrestling with infrastructure
Why waste hours on DIY VPS setups when you can focus on your code?
The Hostim.dev Way

Built for European Developers
Hostim.dev is designed for teams that need to run Docker apps in the EU without the overhead of hyperscalers or the fragility of DIY setups.
GDPR by Design
Your data never leaves the EU. We use German bare-metal servers for maximum privacy and performance.

Connect your GitHub repo or push a Docker image. We handle the rest, from build to HTTPS.
Integrated Stack
Persistent volumes, private networking, and managed databases are all part of the platform.

Managed Databases
Provision production-ready Postgres, MySQL, or Redis with one click.
Automatic HTTPS
Free SSL certificates via Let's Encrypt, automatically renewed.
Private Networking
Secure internal communication between your app and databases.
Live Logs & Metrics

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the free tier include?
You can create free MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis databases, and persistent volumes. App containers start at €2.5/month. Each user gets one 5-day trial project with everything included – apps, DBs, volumes, metrics.
Can I deploy with just a Compose file?
Yes. Paste your Docker Compose YAML and we'll generate the services automatically. You can also deploy from a Dockerfile or Git repository (repo should have Dockerfile so our system can build the image).
Where is my app hosted?
On bare-metal servers located in Germany. We do not use AWS, GCP, or other large cloud providers – your data stays in the EU.
Do I need to know Kubernetes?
No. Hostim.dev removes Kubernetes complexity. You manage apps, databases, and resources – not clusters or YAML.
Is this for solo devs or teams?
Right now, each account manages projects individually. Multi-user roles and team collaboration are planned – we're actively listening to early users to shape this.
