Deis is an open source Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) inspired by Heroku that makes it easy to deploy and scale LXC containers used to host applications, databases, middleware and other services. Deis leverages Docker, Chef and Heroku Buildpacks to provide a private PaaS that is lightweight and flexible.
Deis comes with out-of-the-box support for Ruby, Python, Node.js, Java, Clojure, PHP, Dart and Go. However, Deis can deploy anything using Heroku Buildpacks or pre-built Docker images. Containers can be deployed to any cloud provider, although only EC2 is currently supported.
Leverage Heroku Buildpacks to deploy a wide range of languages and frameworks with a simple "git push" or create custom Docker images to deploy pre-built apps, databases and other services.
Choose your hosting providers. Define your application formations. Scale nodes and containers independently. Control your routing layer. Manage the entire platform with a private Deis controller.
Scale nodes, containers and proxies with a single command. Node provisioning is transparent, container formations are rebalanced automatically and proxies are updated to re-route traffic without downtime.
Free, transparent and easily customized. Join the open-source PaaS and DevOps community by using Deis and complimentary projects like Docker, Chef and Heroku Buildpacks.
Installing the Deis client from the Python Package Index is simple:
