Frequently Asked Questions
What is the pricing model of Diploi?

Can I use Diploi for free?

What is Diploi?
Diploi is a platform that combines cloud development environments and app hosting in a single place, and is meant to be an all-in-one solution where developers can scaffold applications from zero, start developing applications without a local setup using cloud development environments, which do not require any configuration work, and deploy staging and production environments instantly. All applications launched and hosted on Diploi come with a CI/CD pipeline setup by default, automatic SSL cert
Where is my code stored, and how does Git integration work?
Your code lives in your own GitHub repository. Diploi configures a GitHub Action that triggers a CI/CD workflow that updates your staging and production environments, and is triggered when new updates are pushed to the repository linked to a project hosted in Diploi.
Is there a limit to how many components or add-ons a project can have in Diploi?
There is no limit, so you can have all supported frameworks and databases supported by Diploi, the only limitation is the computing power required by a deployment to handle a large stack of components and add-ons.
Is Diploi a VPS provider?
No, Diploi is a fully managed development and deployment platform. You cannot choose the OS where your application is deployed, and you do not have configuration access to the server's settings.
Do I get SSH access to the servers where my project is hosted in Diploi?
Yes, Diploi uses Kubernetes to host your application's cloud development environment, components, and add-ons as individual pods, which you can access via SSH.
Can I share my application with others for testing?
Yes, each environment has a unique URL you can share, so others can access and test your app instantly.
How do I monitor logs or production status?
Diploi provides real-time logging for each component and add-on that is part of your application. Additionally, from the deployment's dashboard, you have access to graphs showing the resource usage of your app's cluster and its current health status. Additionally, all development deployments on Diploi come with a Diploi CLI, which gives you access to logs in real-time and can be used for programmatic log data tracking.
What if I want to move off Diploi later?
You can move your project out of Diploi at any point. All Diploi projects can be run on any VPS or managed hosting service, either by running each component and add-on as you usually would do via terminal commands (eg. npm run start), or by using the Dockerfiles that Diploi generates for your app's components.
Is there a free trial or credits?
When you sign up with GitHub, you receive €50 in free credits valid for 14 days. These credits let you explore Diploi fully without a credit card. After the trial, you only pay for the time that your application is online and the storage utilized. There are no additional costs or fees for extra services.
What is the Stack Builder in Diploi?
Stack Builder is a tool for scaffolding new apps. It can generate boilerplate code and project structure for common stacks. For example, you can pick frameworks and databases, and the Stack Builder will create a ready-to-launch application template. This jumpstarts new projects so you can begin coding immediately.
