# Notploy

> Notploy is a self-hostable Platform as a Service (PaaS) that simplifies the deployment and management of applications and databases. The core product is open source and free to self-host, making it a compelling alternative to platforms like Heroku, Vercel, and Netlify. It is built on Docker and Traefik, and is available as a self-hosted installation or as a managed cloud product. Enterprise features—including SSO, fine-grained RBAC, audit logs, and white labelling—require a commercial licence. Notploy is designed for individual developers, small teams, and large enterprises alike.

Notploy lets teams deploy any application—using Nixpacks, Heroku Buildpacks, or a custom Dockerfile—alongside databases and Docker Compose stacks, across single or multiple servers. It supports Docker Swarm for clustering, real-time monitoring, automated backups, and granular role-based access control. AI-assisted deployments are supported via an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, enabling AI agents and tools to interact with Notploy directly.

Key facts:
- Core product is open source (GitHub: github.com/skygenesisenterprise/notploy) and licensed under Apache-2.0; enterprise features require a commercial licence
- Supports MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MariaDB, and Redis with built-in backup management
- Multi-server and Docker Swarm cluster support with zero-configuration setup
- Enterprise features include SSO/SAML (Okta, Azure), fine-grained RBAC, audit logs, and white labelling
- One-click templates for popular tools including Supabase, Cal.com, and PocketBase
- Full REST API, CLI access, and Swagger documentation
- Notifications via Slack, Discord, Telegram, email, and webhooks
