Deploy Docker on DCDeploy

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.

Deployment Options

Method	Use Case
Dockerfile	Build from your source code on DCDeploy. Best for CI/CD pipelines.
Docker Image	Deploy prebuilt images from a container registry. Fast and portable.

Example: Using a Dockerfile

Create a Dockerfile in your project:

FROM node:18-alpine
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm install --production
COPY . .
EXPOSE 3000
CMD ["npm", "start"]
