Appliku

Appliku is a deployment automation platform designed to simplify server management and application deployment for developers and teams. Think of it as a bridge between complex server administration and easy-to-use hosting platforms.

The service works by connecting to your existing cloud servers (like AWS, DigitalOcean, or any Ubuntu server) and automatically setting up everything needed to run your applications. It uses Docker and Nginx behind the scenes to create a reliable hosting environment without requiring you to learn server management.

What makes Appliku special is its BYOS (Bring-Your-Own-Server) approach. You keep full control over your hosting costs and server specifications while getting the same easy deployment experience as premium hosting platforms. Founded to help developers focus on building rather than server management, Appliku supports Python, Django, and other web applications with automatic Git-based deployments.

Using Appliku is straightforward and requires minimal technical knowledge. First, visit appliku.com and create a free account to start exploring the platform. The setup process involves connecting your cloud provider account or providing details for your custom Ubuntu server.

Here's how to get started:

• Connect your Git repository (GitHub or GitLab) to the Appliku dashboard

• Add your server by connecting a cloud provider account or custom server

• Configure your application settings including environment variables and build commands

• Deploy your application with a single click

Best practices for optimal results:

• Ensure your server has adequate resources for both running and building applications

• Use clear environment variable names for easier management

• Set up different applications for staging and production environments

• Monitor your application logs through the dashboard for troubleshooting

Appliku handles SSL certificate generation, domain configuration, and database setup automatically. The platform remembers your deployment settings, so subsequent deployments happen automatically when you push code changes to your repository. You can manage multiple applications on a single server as long as resources allow.

• One-click deployment from Git repositories

• Multiple database support (PostgreSQL, Redis, MySQL)
