Paste & deploy – no boilerplate
Import your Compose YAML directly in the dashboard. We parse it into a live app in minutes.
What is Docker Compose hosting?
Docker Compose hosting runs the multi-container stack defined in your docker-compose.yml on a managed platform, so you don't set up servers, networking, or TLS yourself. You paste the Compose file and each service becomes a live app.
On Hostim.dev your stack runs on EU bare-metal with private networking, automatic HTTPS, and managed databases — in minutes, without Kubernetes or Terraform.
Made for Compose-first workflows
Keep Compose as the source of truth – no YAML detours, no Terraform required.
Built-in services
Provision Postgres, MySQL, Redis, and persistent volumes instantly – env vars pre-wired.
Zero-downtime updates
Push changes and redeploy quickly – no cluster admin, no pipelines to babysit.
EU bare-metal
Runs in Germany for low latency and GDPR by default. No big-cloud rent.
Private networking
Isolated per-project networks so your internal services stay private by default.
Logs & metrics out of the box
See live logs and app metrics without extra setup or add-on sprawl.

Docker Compose hosting FAQ
Can I deploy a Docker Compose file directly?
Yes. Paste your docker-compose.yml into the Hostim dashboard and each service becomes a live app. Built-in Postgres, MySQL, Redis, and volumes are wired in with environment variables automatically.
Do I get a database with Docker Compose hosting?
Yes. You can provision managed PostgreSQL, MySQL, or Redis alongside your stack, with daily backups and private networking, instead of running databases inside containers.
Where are the servers located?
Hostim runs on bare-metal in Germany (EU). Your apps, databases, and volumes stay in the EU and are GDPR-compliant by default.
Do I need Kubernetes or Terraform?
No. Hostim runs your Compose stack for you. There is no cluster to manage and no Terraform to write — Compose stays the source of truth.
Is there a free trial?
Yes. Every new project is free for 5 days, with no credit card required. Paid app plans start at €2.5/month.
