Compliance and Security

Read more in our documentation.

Engineers

Read the Is my application a good fit for Aptible? community topic to ensure your application doesn't have any requirements that Aptible doesn't support.

Basic setup

• Download the Aptible CLI.
• If using Dockerfile Deploy, add an SSH Key to your account.

Choose which method for providing a docker image for your App works best for your organization:

• If you're already building docker images for your applications, Direct Docker Image Deployment can be used to deploy the images on Aptible.
• Otherwise, Dockerfile Deployment is generally the quickest way to get started.

Experience the Aptible workflow:

• Use Aptible's Direct Docker Image Deploy Example for Direct Docker Image Deploy.
• Use Aptible's Quickstart Guides for Dockerfile Deploy:
  • NodeJS
  • PHP
  • Python
  • Ruby on Rails
• Build Dockerfiles using Aptible's primer on dockerfiles.
