SnapDeploy is a modern container deployment platform that lets you deploy Docker containers from source code to production in minutes, not hours. It supports Node.js, Python, Java, Go, PHP, Ruby, and .NET applications.

How much does SnapDeploy cost?

SnapDeploy is free to deploy on Small (512 MB) containers — 10 deploys a day (5 per rolling 12 hours) and 100 hours a month, no credit card required, up to 4 containers that sleep after 15 minutes idle and wake in about a minute when someone visits. Medium (2 GB, $25/month) and Large (4 GB, $45/month) need an Always-On subscription, and you can add Always-On to a Small container ($12/month) to keep it running 24/7. Free SSL and GitHub integration are included for everyone.

Is SnapDeploy a good Heroku alternative?

Yes, SnapDeploy is an excellent Heroku alternative. It offers similar ease of use with faster deployments, transparent pricing, and support for all major programming languages. Deploy in minutes, not hours.

What programming languages does SnapDeploy support?

SnapDeploy supports Node.js, Python, Java (Maven/Gradle), Go, PHP, Ruby, .NET, and static HTML sites. It automatically detects your project type and generates optimized Dockerfiles.

How do I deploy an application on SnapDeploy?

Upload your source code as a ZIP file or connect your GitHub repository. SnapDeploy automatically detects your framework, builds your application, and deploys it to a container with SSL and a unique URL in minutes, not hours.

How does SnapDeploy compare to Railway?

SnapDeploy offers faster deployment times, a free-forever tier with 10 deploys a day (5 per rolling 12 hours) and 100 hours a month, and simple per-container Always-On pricing from $12/month. Both platforms support Docker containers, but SnapDeploy is optimized specifically for container workloads with AWS infrastructure. Deploy in minutes, not hours.

Does SnapDeploy support custom domains?

Custom domains come with Always-On (from $12/month per container). Free apps get a yourapp.containers.snapdeploy.app address with HTTPS. On an Always-On container, add your domain in the container settings, update your DNS records, and SnapDeploy automatically provisions and manages SSL certificates via Let's Encrypt.

What is SnapDeploy's uptime SLA?

SnapDeploy targets 99.9% monthly uptime for Always-On containers; there is no formal SLA yet. Every app runs as its own AWS Fargate task behind a health-checked load balancer, unhealthy tasks are restarted automatically, a failed redeploy never takes traffic from the running one, and the platform is monitored around the clock.

Can I deploy from GitHub automatically?

Yes, SnapDeploy supports GitHub integration with automatic deployments. Connect your repository, select the branch to deploy from, and every push will automatically trigger a new deployment. You can also trigger manual deployments anytime.

Does SnapDeploy support environment variables and secrets?

Yes. You can set environment variables and secrets per container — at deploy time (SnapDeploy auto-detects them from your repo) and anytime afterwards from Container Settings, applied with a zero-downtime rolling restart. Build-time (public-prefixed) variables need a redeploy. Secret-named values are masked in the dashboard, and all data is stored on AWS with encryption at rest.

Does SnapDeploy offer GPU hosting?

Yes. SnapDeploy offers Dedicated GPU hosting in two tiers — your own physical NVIDIA T4 (16 GB VRAM, flat $499/month) or NVIDIA A10G (24 GB VRAM, flat $999/month) on a dedicated on-demand instance, running 24/7. It is never shared, never spot, and never interrupted. Deploy any Docker container, build straight from your GitHub source code, or use one-click templates: PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face, ONNX, Ollama (open LLMs like Llama and Mistral), vLLM (OpenAI-compatible API), ComfyUI (Stable Diffusion XL image generation), and Whisper (speech-to-text).

What payment methods does SnapDeploy accept?

In India: UPI (including Google Pay), all major cards and net banking through Razorpay, billed in INR. Everywhere else: credit or debit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay on a secure hosted checkout page, or PayPal, billed in USD; no PayPal account is needed. Always-On and Sprint Packs are also available as in-app purchases in the SnapDeploy iOS and Android apps.

How much does a dedicated NVIDIA T4 cost?

A dedicated NVIDIA T4 on SnapDeploy costs a flat $499/month (₹48,403 in India) — no hourly metering, cancel anytime. Spread over ~730 hours of 24/7 runtime, that is an effective rate of about $0.68/hour, fully managed with GitHub deploys, TLS, and monitoring included. A dedicated NVIDIA A10G (24 GB VRAM) is $999/month (₹96,903 in India).
