Deployra Service Types
Identify the right service type for your use case.
Deployra supports two different service types for hosting your app:
- Web services (most common)
- Private services
You can also create fully managed datastores to use with your app:
- Deployra Postgres databases
- Deployra MySQL databases
- Deployra Key Value instances
These instances are compatible with virtually all Redis®* clients.
Choosing a service type is the first step of creating a new service in the Deployra Dashboard:

Summary of service types
The most common service type. Dynamic web apps with a public deployra.app subdomain for receiving traffic over HTTP.
If you're building a public web app using Express, Django, Rails, or something similar, use this service type.
Dynamic web apps that don't have a public URL. Private services expose an internal hostname for receiving traffic from your other Deployra services over their shared private network.
Private services are great for deploying tools like:
- Elasticsearch
- ClickHouse
For storing data
Fully managed PostgreSQL databases with automatic backups, point-in-time recovery, and horizontal scaling.
Ideal for relational data models and applications requiring ACID compliance.
Managed MySQL databases with strong performance, reliability, and ease of use.
Great for web applications, content management systems, and e-commerce platforms.
High-performance in-memory data store for caching, real-time analytics, and message brokering.
Compatible with Redis clients for seamless integration.
