Who is OpsCaptain built for?

OpsCaptain is built for developers, agencies, startups, SaaS businesses and software professionals that need to manage multiple apps and websites running in independent containers on your own fleet of servers, whether, bare metal or a VPS from your cloud provider.

The platform allows you to provision independent containers with specified RAM, CPU, and replication factor. Containers can be scaled up and down and even migrated to different host machines at any time independently without any downtime to the app.

For example: You can buy a 1 GB server from any SSD cloud server provider and host as many microservices running in independent containers or have your Dev, Stage and Prod instances running side by side in containers on the same host. With swap space configured, your instances should run without any issues. Compare this to a PaaS where you have to pay for each container. OpsCaptain is the obvious choice here.
