Host Dokploy on High-Availability Cloud
Deploy your own PaaS with Dokploy on MassiveGRID's HA infrastructure. Pick a preset below, from $9.58/month for a 2 vCPU, 4 GB server, run one command, and your self-hosted deployment platform is live in minutes. Full root access, NVMe storage and 12 Tbps DDoS protection included.
Dokploy Running in 3 Steps
From zero to your own deployment platform in minutes. No complex setup required.
Choose Your Server
Pick a preset in the configurator below. Every card is already sized for Dokploy; Starter (2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM) is the smallest we recommend, Growth is the production pick. Choose a data center, switch to dedicated cores if builds matter, and order.
Deploy & Connect
Your server is provisioned instantly with full root access. Connect via SSH — Ubuntu 24.04 or Debian 12 is recommended for the best Dokploy compatibility.
Install Dokploy
Run the single install command and Dokploy handles the rest — Docker, Traefik, SSL certificates, and the dashboard are all configured automatically. Prefer not to? Open a ticket and we install it for you at no charge.
Pick the Size That Matches Your Workload
Dokploy itself needs at least 2 GB of RAM and 30 GB of disk space (we recommend 2 vCPU), running Ubuntu 24.04 or Debian 12, with ports 80, 443 and 3000 free. What you deploy on it decides the rest. These four presets match the cards in the configurator below; prices are per month in New York, London or Frankfurt with 1 TB of traffic and one IPv4, before any billing-cycle discount.
| You are running | Typical load | Server | Plan | Price | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Side project or staging | 1 to 3 apps, 1 database | 2 vCPU, 4 GB RAM, 64 GB NVMe | Cloud VPS Starter | $9.58/mo | |
| Production for a small team Recommended | 4 to 8 apps, 2 to 3 databases | 4 vCPU, 8 GB RAM, 128 GB NVMe | Dedicated VPS Growth | $39.60/mo | |
| Agency or several clients | 10 to 20 apps, Supabase or similar stacks | 8 vCPU, 16 GB RAM, 256 GB NVMe | Dedicated VPS Pro | $79.20/mo | |
| Build server or Swarm node | Dedicated build server or extra Swarm worker | 16 vCPU, 32 GB RAM, 512 GB NVMe | Dedicated VPS Enterprise | $159.40/mo |
Shared cores cost about half as much and are fine while builds are occasional; dedicated cores keep Docker builds and response times steady under load, which is why the production rows recommend them. Singapore storage and traffic are priced higher; the configurator shows the exact figure once you pick a location. Prefer Coolify? The same presets are on the Coolify hosting page.
Configure Your Dokploy Server
Every card is preset for Dokploy: Starter is the smallest server we recommend for the dashboard plus a few apps, Growth is the production pick. Adjust any slider, the price updates live, and your server is online in seconds. Ubuntu 24.04 is pre-selected on every card, since the Dokploy installer is tested on it. Debian 12 is under older versions.
One Command, Full Platform
SSH into your new MassiveGRID server and run this command. Dokploy will install Docker, set up Traefik, configure SSL, and launch the dashboard automatically.
Requires a fresh server with Ubuntu 24.04 or Debian 12, at least 2 GB of RAM and 30 GB of disk, and ports 80, 443 and 3000 free. The installer needs root access and sets up Docker, Traefik and all dependencies.
Your Own Deployment Platform
Dokploy is an open-source, self-hosted alternative to Heroku, Vercel, and Netlify. Full control, zero vendor lock-in.
Dokploy gives you a complete application deployment platform on your own infrastructure. Deploy any application using Nixpacks, Heroku Buildpacks, or raw Dockerfiles — with a clean web UI to manage everything.
Run unlimited applications and databases with built-in Docker Compose support, Traefik for automatic SSL and routing, real-time monitoring, and automated backups. Scale across multiple servers with Docker Swarm when you need more capacity.
Docker & Compose
Native Docker and Docker Compose support for any application stack.
Database Management
MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MariaDB, and Redis with automated backups.
Auto SSL & Routing
Traefik handles certificates, domains, and routing automatically.
Real-Time Monitoring
CPU, memory, and network dashboards with comprehensive logging.
Team Management
User roles and permissions for collaborative deployments.
App Templates
One-click templates for Supabase, PocketBase, Plausible, and more.
Dokploy on a VPS, Dokploy Cloud or MassiveGRID PaaS?
Dokploy Cloud hosts the control plane for you and you connect servers you rent elsewhere, from $4.50 per server per month at the time of writing. You still need a VPS for every app you run, so the Cloud fee comes on top of the server bill, and the dashboard lives outside your infrastructure. Self-hosting Dokploy on a MassiveGRID VPS puts the dashboard and your apps on one high-availability server you control. If you would rather not run a platform at all, MassiveGRID PaaS is the managed option. Competitor figures were checked on docs.dokploy.com on 31 October 2026.
| Dokploy on MassiveGRID | Dokploy Cloud | MassiveGRID PaaS | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly cost | Server only, from $9.58 (Starter preset) | $4.50 per server per month (Startup $15 for 3 servers, 20% off annually), plus the servers you connect | From $2.46 per cloudlet-month, billed by actual usage |
| Where the dashboard runs | On your MassiveGRID server | Dashboard, users, orchestration, monitoring and notifications run on Dokploy’s servers | On MassiveGRID PaaS, operated by us |
| Where your apps and data run | On your MassiveGRID server, Ceph 3x replicated | On servers you bring, from any provider | On MassiveGRID PaaS, Ceph 3x replicated |
| Who updates the platform | You, when you choose (one command) | Automatic, on Dokploy’s schedule | MassiveGRID |
| Node failover | Proxmox HA migrates your VM to a healthy node | Depends on the servers you connect | Built in, with 100% uptime SLA |
| Root access | Full root and KVM console | On your servers, yes | No server to manage; SSH into containers |
| Multiple servers | Docker Swarm workers added from the dashboard | Included, per-server fee | Horizontal scaling per environment |
| Support | MassiveGRID 24/7 for the server, installation on request; Dokploy community for the app | Dokploy team | MassiveGRID 24/7 for the platform and the environment |
| Best for | Developers who want one server, full control and the lowest cost | Teams with servers at several providers who want a hosted dashboard | Teams who want deployments without running a platform |
The three are not exclusive: a MassiveGRID VPS can be a connected server under Dokploy Cloud, and teams often keep Dokploy for side projects while production runs on MassiveGRID PaaS. Read the PaaS marketplace for the packages the managed platform deploys in one click.
