Solutions · 6 capabilities

Platforms and pipelines that make software shippable and observable.

Six infrastructure solutions for teams that build and run software, from a single pipeline to a hosting platform for many customers.

01

Deployment platforms

Connect a repository, build, deploy and observe applications with minimal friction.

Problems it solves

  • Manual, error-prone releases
  • No visibility into build failures

Example use cases

  • Internal developer platform
  • Customer app hosting

Core features

  • Git-connected deploys
  • Preview environments
  • Live logs
  • Rollbacks

Typical technologies

  • Docker
  • GitHub
  • Traefik
  • Node.js

Implementation note: Plan isolation and resource limits early if untrusted code will run on the platform.

02

PaaS products

Multi-tenant platforms that host customers' applications with quotas and billing.

Problems it solves

  • Offering hosting without custom engineering per customer

Example use cases

  • Agency hosting portal
  • Vertical SaaS hosting

Core features

  • Projects and teams
  • Quotas and usage metering
  • Domains and SSL
  • Billing hooks

Typical technologies

  • Docker
  • Coolify
  • PostgreSQL
  • Stripe Billing

Implementation note: Security isolation between tenants is the hardest requirement, so design it first.

03

CI/CD systems

Pipelines that test, scan and promote changes automatically.

Problems it solves

  • Slow feedback after a commit
  • Inconsistent release procedures

Example use cases

  • Monorepo pipeline
  • Regulated release approvals

Core features

  • Parallel test stages
  • Dependency and secret scanning
  • Environment promotion
  • Approvals

Typical technologies

  • GitHub Actions
  • Docker
  • Playwright
  • Terraform

Implementation note: Keep pipelines fast, since slow ones get bypassed.

04

Docker automation

Reproducible container builds, registries and runtime configuration.

Problems it solves

  • It works on my machine
  • Bloated, insecure images

Example use cases

  • Legacy app containerisation
  • Standard base images

Core features

  • Optimised multi-stage images
  • Build caching
  • Registry lifecycle
  • Image scanning

Typical technologies

  • Docker
  • BuildKit
  • Registries
  • Trivy

Implementation note: Pin base images and scan them on a schedule.

05

Infrastructure monitoring

Metrics, logs and alerts that show how systems behave and fail.

Problems it solves

  • Customers reporting outages first
  • Alert noise

Example use cases

  • SLO dashboards
  • Per-customer resource views

Core features

  • Service dashboards
  • Actionable alerts
  • Tracing
  • Capacity trends

Typical technologies

  • OpenTelemetry
  • Grafana
  • Prometheus
  • Sentry

Implementation note: Tie alerts to user impact and avoid paging on harmless noise.

06

Developer portals

A single place for documentation, APIs, keys, services and runbooks.

Problems it solves

  • Developers hunting for docs and owners
  • Slow onboarding

Example use cases

  • Partner API portal
  • Internal engineering handbook

Core features

  • API reference
  • Service catalogue
  • Self-service keys
  • Templates

Typical technologies

  • Next.js
  • OpenAPI
  • MDX
  • SSO

Implementation note: A portal is only useful if its content stays current, so assign ownership.
