Your containers on our platform.

You book resources - RAM, CPU and fast NVMe storage - and run your own containers in them. You choose the software yourself: from our catalogue of official images from the vendors or, after review and approval, other images as well.

We take care of the platform: separate projects without root privileges, web addresses with SSL, your own networks, a firewall for incoming and outgoing traffic and, if you wish, backups, snapshots and monitoring. You remain the operator of your software and observe its licence terms.

Explained simply

What is container hosting?

A container is a ready-packaged program - with everything it needs to run.

Instead of setting up an entire server, you start software directly as a container. The vendor supplies it as an image; we provide computing power, storage, network and security. You choose the image, set the settings and make the service reachable. We take care of the server, operating system, firewall and certificates.

All services in detail

¹ Provisioning takes place automatically after the contract is concluded (if prepayment has been agreed, after the time of your payment order).

How it works

Four steps to a running container.

No server for you to set up: you choose resources and software, we provide the platform.

  1. Choose a plan

    Container S, M or L. Your project is set up automatically once the contract is concluded; you can add resources at any time.

  2. Choose an image

    From the catalogue of official images or by address. If you like, a docker-compose template fills in the settings.

  3. Make it reachable

    Web address with SSL, your own domain or your own port. A test shows you straight away whether your service responds.

  4. Operate

    Logs, statistics, snapshots and backups in the customer area - with notes on what to do.

Examples of use

What Container Hosting is a good fit for.

A few examples from practice. Which software you run is up to you - from our catalogue of official images, from the Docker Official Images or after review and approval.

  • WordPress with its own database

    WordPress and MariaDB as two containers: the website is publicly accessible with SSL, while the database is on an internal network with no connection to the internet.

  • Your own web application

    Your Node.js or Python application on official runtime images or as an image from your own registry after our approval.

  • Automation

    Workflows using tools such as n8n: exchanging data between services, triggering workflows on a schedule, receiving webhooks.

  • Monitor availability

    A status monitor such as Uptime Kuma checks your websites and services around the clock from outside your own systems.

  • Dashboards and reports

    Grafana for metrics from your systems - hosted under your own domain and, if required, accessible only from specific IP addresses.

  • In-house tools

    Wiki, form or admin interfaces for your team, protected by a password, an IP allowlist or both.

  • Databases and caching

    PostgreSQL, MariaDB or Valkey for your applications - accessible internally via the container name, and externally only if you choose to allow it.

  • Test and staging environments

    Try out new versions before they go live: take a snapshot, install the update and roll back in seconds if necessary.

Networks & overview

You can see who is talking to whom.

Containers in the same network reach each other by name. Internal networks have no route to the internet - ideal for databases. The overview in the customer area shows what is reachable from outside and which containers talk to each other directly. You allow outbound traffic completely or only to specific destinations.

Container Hosting in the customer area: structure of a project with public containers and internal networks without internet
Example from the customer area: WordPress and n8n are publicly accessible, while their databases are located on separate internal networks.

Security & data protection

Securely isolated.

Each project runs under its own Linux user account without root privileges - with strict limits, its own firewall and checks before anything starts.

  1. Rootless Podman - each project on its own

    Containers run on the server without root privileges. Each project has its own Linux user, fixed limits for RAM, CPU, storage and processes, and its own ZFS storage with a quota.

  2. Checked images

    Each version is checked for known vulnerabilities using Trivy before it is launched. Critical findings for which a fix is available will prevent the launch.

  3. Firewall in both directions

    You decide who can reach your ports and whether your containers may connect to all destinations or only to allowed ones. No sending via port 25, no access to internal networks or other projects.

  4. Nightly scans and quarantine

    Volumes are scanned every night with ClamAV and patterns for PHP backdoors. We report findings by email and in the customer area, without blocking automatically. In the event of a confirmed incident, our team takes an infected project off the network - the containers keep running while it is cleaned up.

  5. Location: Germany

    Operated in Germany, GDPR-compliant. Two-factor login for the customer area; sensitive values such as passwords are stored encrypted and never displayed again.

Operations & data

Operations without a command line.

01Snapshots: back in seconds

A snapshot captures the state of your volumes directly on the server. If something goes wrong during an update, you are back to the previous state in seconds.

You can set automatic snapshots to off, daily, every 6 hours or hourly; slots for your own snapshots can be added as an option. Snapshots only take up space for changed data, but they count towards your storage quota.

02Backups in a separate data centre

With the Backup option, we back up your project encrypted to a separate data centre every night. The retention period depends on your plan. You can restore the entire project or a single volume.

03Files directly in the browser

The file browser opens every volume: create folders, upload and download files, edit text files up to 5 MB in the editor. Access is limited to the volume in question.

04Container control with confirmation prompts

Start, stop and restart with a confirmation prompt. ‘Recreate’ pulls the image again; your data is kept. ‘Reinstall’ empties the volumes and sets up the container as on its first start - we automatically take a snapshot beforehand. The history shows all operations; a console in the browser is available as an option.

05Logs and notes with troubleshooting steps

Logs with a filter and the ‘Copy for support’ button. If something isn’t working, the customer area shows a note with specific troubleshooting steps and recommends checked versions of your images.

06Monitoring and notifications

Statistics on RAM, CPU, storage and processes over 24 hours, 7 or 30 days. Notifications per project on downtime, application errors, low resources or a missing backup - by email, with an all-clear.

The Monitoring option adds checks via HTTP and TCP - whether a container is running and how its resources look - and restarts it automatically if necessary.

  • Service und Beratung direkt vom Chef

    Ich hatte einige Fragen vor der Buchung. Zunächst kam ich telefonisch nicht durch, aber kurze Zeit später rief der Gründer und Chef persönlich zurück. Das Gespräch war sehr freundlich, hat mich überzeugt und so habe ich mich entschieden, Kunde zu werden. Bisher lief alles reibungslos und ich bin sicher, es bleibt auch so. Besonders gut finde ich die Philosophie, möglichst mit deutschen Unternehmen zusammenzuarbeiten und einen telefonischen Service zu bieten.

Frequently asked questions

Good to know.

Here we answer the most frequently asked questions about Container Hosting.

Ask a question

What software can I run?

All images from our catalogue come from official sources such as Docker Hub and ghcr.io. You can also search the Docker Official Images or specify the address of an image from an official source. We will make images from your own registry, such as Harbor or GitLab, and from other sources available to your account following a request and verification.

Who is responsible for licences?

You. We provide the resources and the platform; you operate the software and are the licensee. For restricted or commercial licences, we show the key condition and ask for your confirmation before the first start.

Will I have root access to the server?

No. Your containers run on the server without root privileges, within their own separate project. You can work as normal within your containers.

How do I make a container reachable on the web?

When creating the container, choose ‘Web address’ and the port. You get an address with SSL straight away; you connect your own domains via DNS records.

Can I send emails from containers?

Direct sending via port 25 is blocked to prevent misuse. Please use a mail server with authentication via port 465 or 587.

What happens to my data once the contract ends?

Your containers will be suspended, and we will retain the data for the period specified in the plan. After that, it will be permanently deleted.

How is this different from my own server?

With your own server, you set up the operating system, updates, firewall and certificates yourself. With Container Hosting, we take care of the platform: you choose images, configure settings and make your services reachable - all in the customer area. If you need access to the entire system, your own server is the better choice.

Can I use a docker-compose file?

Yes, as a template. If the image’s repository contains a docker-compose file, we offer it to you; alternatively, you can upload or paste your own file. Variables, ports, volumes and the start command are imported. We never pre-fill passwords with sample values - you set them yourself.

How are images checked for security?

Each version is checked for known vulnerabilities using Trivy before it is launched for the first time, and then checked again at regular intervals. Critical findings for which a fix is already available will prevent the launch. In the customer area, we recommend versions that have been checked and have fewer findings.

How do I back up my data?

With two tools: snapshots are stored on the server and take your volumes back to an earlier state in seconds - automatically daily, every 6 hours or hourly. Backups (option) store your project encrypted in a separate data centre every night; you can restore the entire project or a single volume.

What happens if malware is detected?

We scan your volumes every night with ClamAV and patterns for PHP backdoors and alert you by email and in the customer area. There is no automatic block, as false positives do occur. If a project is actually infected, our team disconnects it from the network; your containers keep running so that you can clean them up.

How do I find out about disruptions?

Notifications per project report outages, application errors, low resources and missing backups by email - with an all-clear as soon as everything is running again. The Monitoring option adds checks via HTTP and TCP and restarts a container automatically if necessary.

Can I add more resources later?

Yes. In the customer area under Plan & options, you can add RAM, CPU, storage, backups, snapshot slots, the console and monitoring; the limits are adjusted immediately. You can also switch to a larger plan at any time.
