Cloud 66 vs Cloudforet

Cloud 66 deploys and manages applications on cloud infrastructure customers provide, including major providers, hybrid environments, and their own servers. It supports Rails or Sinatra apps, Docker containers on Kubernetes, and static sites built with Jekyll, Hugo, or Gatsby. Deployment options include zero-downtime, blue/green, and canary deployments, plus previews for branches, tags, and pull requests. Hosted Docker build servers and autoscaling based on CPU, memory, queue backlog, and Nginx response time are available. Managed databases can include off-site backups, replication, and monitoring; the platform also provides server monitoring, alerts, logs, and metrics. Listed cloud providers include AWS, DigitalOcean, Google Compute Engine, Hetzner Cloud, Latitude.sh, Linode, OVHcloud, Microsoft Azure, and Vultr.
