What is Redmine?
Redmine has been a mainstay of software and engineering teams since 2006. It tracks issues with custom workflows per tracker and role, plans with Gantt charts and roadmaps, hosts a wiki and documents per project, records time, and links commits from Git or Subversion repositories to issues. More than a thousand plugins and themes extend it, including agile boards and CRM modules.
Ruby on Rails applications need a specific Ruby version, bundled gems and an application server such as Puma or Passenger, which is where many self-hosted Redmine installs stall. The package deploys a Ruby application server with Redmine installed and configured against a linked database, so you reach the first login in minutes.
What the Redmine Package Deploys
Marketplace packages are not bare container images. One click provisions a complete, production-shaped environment on MassiveGRID infrastructure.
- Ruby on Rails application server: A Ruby container with the Redmine release installed, gems bundled and the application server configured.
- Database: A linked MySQL/MariaDB or PostgreSQL container with credentials configured in Redmine.
- Persistent files: Attachments and repository data on persistent storage with snapshots.
- Built-in domain and SSL: HTTPS on a platform subdomain immediately; attach your own domain via Let's Encrypt.

Why Run Redmine on MassiveGRID PaaS
Built for uptime. Redmine runs on MassiveGRID's high-availability platform, where every environment is covered by a 100% uptime SLA. Nodes live on redundant hosts, storage is replicated, and failed containers are restarted or migrated automatically.
Pay for what you use. Billing is hourly and per cloudlet (128 MiB RAM plus 400 MHz CPU). Vertical auto-scaling adds and removes cloudlets as load changes, so a quiet Redmine environment costs a few dollars a month and a busy one grows without a migration. Full details are on the PaaS page.
Your choice of jurisdiction. Deploy in New York, London, Frankfurt or Singapore and keep data inside the region your users or regulators require. MassiveGRID is ISO 9001 certified and GDPR compliant, and has run hosting infrastructure since 2003.
No lock-in. The package is a standard Jelastic Packaging Standard (JPS) manifest. You keep root-level access to the containers, can export the manifest, and can move the workload to any other Jelastic-compatible platform or to your own servers at any time.
