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 rewrites, 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 off-site 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.
