Certified Containers Deployment

Certified Containers Deployment

The platform provides popular software stacks as preconfigured and managed solutions for fast deployment and convenient administration. Certified containers are tested and optimised specifically for the platform.

Certified stacks receive regular updates and platform integrations such as resource-based auto-configuration, automated SSL installation, application deployment tools, and built-in Auto-Clustering.
