Swarmlet Alternatives for Self-Hosted

Dokku is a free and open-source project that helps you build and manage the lifecycle of applications. With Dokku developers can setup their own PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) in a matter of minutes. Dokku provides extra plugins which can be used to manage database, and tools needed for your application. If you need to server your application over HTTPS, Dokku got you covered as well, with the help of Let's Encrypts free TLS certificates.

CapRover is an free and easy-to-use application deployment and server manager for NodeJS, Python, PHP, ASP.NET, Ruby, MySQL, MongoDB, Postgres, WordPress and more. With CapRover you can create your own PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) similar to that of Heroku, and deploying it to your own cloud instance.

OpenFaaS makes it simple to deploy both functions and existing code to Kubernetes. With OpenFaaS developers can deploy their applications and serveless functions to their very own scalable, fault-tolerant event-driven serverless platform powered by Docker and Kubernetes.

Docker is an open-source platform that automates deployment and development life cycles with OS-level virtualization. These virtualization are called containers and contain application specific operating system, software and configurations that are built on deployment. Containers are encapsulated and work across systems, be it in local development or on production servers, they run anywhere. Docker provides a Community Edition (CE) and an Enterprise Edition (EE) and can be used for personal and enterprise level projects alike.

Docker Swarm is a container orcherstration tool based on Docker. With Docker Swarm you can manage multiple containers deployed across multiple host machines. Current versions of Docker includes swarm mode, which allows you to run Docker Engines as swarms. You can manage your Docker Swarm's with the Docker CLI, to create, deploy and manage your Docker Swarm's.

Swarmlet is a free and open-source, self-hosted Platform as a Service that runs on any single server. It's mainly intended for use with multiple servers, a server cluster / swarm. Swarmlet is inspired by Dokku and brings the same simplicity to Docker Swarm. Swarmlet also uses Traefik v2 and Let's Encrypt to provide automatic SSL and load balancing on your apps.
