Coolify is an open source PaaS that allows you to easily self-host and manage your own databases and applications such as WordPress.



When using or developing internet applications, building the infrastructure systems that underpin those applications, such as backends and web services, can be complex and time-consuming.

Platform as a service (PaaS) offered by major cloud services makes it easy to start a service, but cost and security can be a bottleneck. Coolify can deploy PaaS on any server, including self-hosted and VPS.
