DCDeploy natively supports Docker deployments.
You can bring your own Dockerfile or deploy directly from a Docker image hosted in a registry.

​
When to Use Docker on DCDeploy

  • You want full control over runtime, dependencies, and OS libraries.
  • You’re deploying apps not natively supported by a language/framework guide.
  • You already maintain Docker images in registries like DockerHub, GitHub Container Registry, or AWS ECR.
  • You need multi-service setups with custom networking.
