About the technology

What is Coolify?

Coolify is an open-source alternative to Heroku, Netlify, and Vercel. It enables the easy deployment of websites, APIs, and databases on any servers, including your own or cloud servers.

With features like Git integration, automatic SSL certificates, automatic backups, and a powerful API, Coolify offers full control without vendor lock-in.

Features of Coolify

  • Flexible

    With Coolify, projects of different programming languages and frameworks can be reliably deployed.

  • Any Servers

    Whether servers in the cloud, dedicated servers, on-premise - Coolify can deploy projects in any environment.

  • Git Integration

    With Git integration, a push is enough to trigger the build and deployment process. GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Gitea, and more are supported.

  • No Vendor Lock-in

    All settings and data are stored in your own environment. Migrating from Coolify to another service is also very simple.

  • Database Backups

    Automated backups of databases can be stored in an S3-compatible storage.

  • Webhooks

    With webhooks, the build and deploy process can be triggered and thus integrated into any CI/CD pipeline.

  • Powerful API

    With the extensive API, deployments can be automated, resources provisioned, or Coolify integrated into your own project.

  • Teams

    By creating teams, multiple users can manage a project. User permissions can be set individually.

  • Monitoring

    If a container is offline or other metrics are conspicuous, a notification can be sent via Discord, email, or Telegram.

Coolify in the system context

Coolify is the deployment layer, not the complete production environment

Applications, databases, identities and internal data sources may run at different locations. WZ-IT plans connectivity, ownership and operations as one production path.

Build and deployment

Repositories, build processes, staging and production are delivered through Coolify in a controlled way.

Backends and data

Supabase, external services and local source systems connect through clearly bounded network paths.

Operational ownership

With self-hosting, the customer operates the instance and servers; with Coolify Cloud, the vendor operates the instance; with managed hosting, WZ-IT operates the agreed scope. See the FAQ comparison.

Infrastructure, integration and operations

Coolify as part of your infrastructure

We do more than provide an application. WZ-IT designs the technical architecture, integrates network and identity, operates the agreed scope and develops integrations when the standard product is not enough.

Architecture and migration

Sizing, target environment, data transfer, cutover and recovery are resolved before production operations.

  • On-Premise

    In your data center: Installation on bare-metal, VM or Docker · Integration with existing Active Directory/LDAP

  • Cloud Installation

    AWS, Azure, Hetzner & more: Installation on AWS, Azure, GCP, Hetzner · Terraform/IaC setup (optional) · Kubernetes or Docker Compose · Capacity and scaling design

  • Enterprise Setup

    Advanced architecture after technical and licence assessment: HA and recovery design where supported by the application and edition · Logging according to feature set and edition · Custom security policies

Network and identity

SSO, secure access, internal systems and existing security components are integrated appropriately.

  • VPN Access

    WireGuard, NetBird, Tailscale, Headscale, OpenVPN, Cloudflare Tunnel · Easy client setup for all devices

  • SSO Integration

    Directly or through an upstream identity layer

  • Multi-Factor Auth

    Depends on application, edition and identity provider

  • Firewall & Hardening

    Fail2Ban, Rate Limiting, IP Whitelisting

Monitoring and service level

Updates, backups, technical monitoring and response paths follow a transparent operational scope.

  • 24/7 proactive monitoring

  • Updates and patches

    Regular updates, CVE monitoring and prioritised patches for critical vulnerabilities

  • Daily backup with 7-day retention

  • Personal technical contact

Integration and development

APIs, automation and custom extensions can be delivered beyond basic deployment.

  • REST API

    The API enables full automation: Create projects, trigger deployments, scale resources - all via code.

  • Deployment Webhooks

    Webhooks can be triggered after each deployment: Slack notification, smoke tests, monitoring check.

  • Custom Buildpacks

    For special stacks we develop custom buildpacks or Nixpacks configurations with optimized build steps.

Concrete Use Cases

Coolify Development & Integration

Coolify is the Heroku alternative for your own data center. We extend it for enterprise requirements.

Branch Preview Environments

Problem

PRs can only be tested on staging after merge. Feedback loop is too long.

Solution

Automatic preview environment for each branch/PR with unique URL. QA can test directly on feature.

Secrets Management Integration

Problem

Secrets are stored in Coolify, but security team wants HashiCorp Vault as single source of truth.

Solution

Integration pulling secrets from Vault and injecting at deployment time - Coolify no longer stores secrets.

Multi-Region Deployment

Problem

Apps should be deployed in EU and US, but Coolify only manages one server pool.

Solution

Multi-cluster setup with region tagging. Deployments automatically distributed to all regions with region-specific configs.

Target architecture

Integrate Coolify into your infrastructure

Development and automation platforms need controlled execution, secrets, persistent data and clearly bounded connections to source and target systems.

Developers, triggers and source systems

Teams, repositories, webhooks, schedules and business systems initiate defined processes.

Secure access

TLS, firewall rules, reverse proxies or private network paths are designed around the platform's exposure.

Identity and permissions

Local accounts, SSO, directories, service accounts and emergency access are connected through clear roles.

Coolify platform

Editor, API, build or workflow runtimes are deployed reproducibly and isolated appropriately.

Database and artefacts

Metadata, configuration, source state, packages or execution history.

Workers and runtimes

Queues, runners, containers, resource limits and separated execution environments.

APIs and target systems

Service accounts, secrets and controlled network paths to internal and external systems.

The diagram is a resilient target model. Its implementation depends on edition, data flows, load, availability objectives and existing infrastructure.

Client feedback and projects worldwide

WZ-IT moved our studio infrastructure from decentralised individual devices to a central platform: every site is securely connected via VPN, new devices are onboarded automatically and an entire site is provisioned from a template, without manual steps on location. What impressed me most is the breadth and depth of their knowledge: Timo and Robin are not a typical IT provider who sets up a server and leaves. The two of them think their way into highly complex infrastructure and software topics, work through every requirement we put in front of them, and build networking, provisioning and operations so that everything fits together in the end. WZ-IT is an excellent partner for complex software, network and architecture projects.
