Bytstack
Push your repo — builds, Postgres, domains, previews, and rollback are handled for you. One platform from git to production for Node.js teams.
$ npx bytstack deploy
Designed for your stack
The system
From a git push to a served request — this is the actual path your Node app takes, and every box on it is something Bytstack runs for you.
Diagram of the Bytstack deploy path. A git push, CLI command, or dashboard action triggers a build. The build produces an immutable version, then deploys to the cluster as web, worker, or cron. Managed Postgres, Redis, and object storage join the app on a private network. The edge terminates domains with automatic SSL and serves visitors, and any previous version can be restored in one click.
A git push, the CLI, or the dashboard. Whatever your Node stack — Next, Nest, Express, a monorepo — it is detected for you.
The image builds in the platform pipeline, not on your production pods. Every build comes out as an immutable, versioned artifact.
It deploys as a fresh container on your cluster — web, worker, or cron — with a zero-downtime swap onto the new version.
Postgres, Redis, and object storage join it on an isolated private network — reachable by your app, never by the internet.
Your domains resolve to the edge, which terminates auto-renewing SSL and hands each request to the new container — zero downtime.
The version you were running stays warm. One click puts it back — no rebuild, no waiting, no lost state.
How it works
No mystery agents on your machines. Here’s the exact path your Node app takes — and why production stays focused on serving.
Link a GitHub repo and Continue. Analyze opens a monorepo checklist (or classic configure with a clear reason). Path filters and build mode come from the real detector — same flow as the dalufy api/web/worker fixture.
On every push the image builds in the platform pipeline — auto-detected Node stacks, workspace or isolated install, dependency and layer caches, health-gated releases. Your production pods stay focused on serving.
Watch each service card to live (or open deploy detail for the stage timeline). Immutable versions roll out with zero downtime. Every PR can get a preview URL — torn down on merge.
Postgres, Redis, object storage, and secrets attach on a private network. Preview DBs can branch with the app. Env changes redeploy when you need them to.
Stream logs, watch metrics, schedule jobs, scale with HPA, and roll back to any previous version in one click — from the dashboard or the bytstack CLI.
Where it runs
Same platform from first deploy to multi-workspace production — without rewriting your app or paying an exit tax.
Bytstack Cloud
Sign up, connect GitHub, ship. Multi-region edge, autoscaling, backups, and monitoring included — zero infrastructure decisions.
Every PR
Every pull request gets its own URL, status checks, and optional branched database. Torn down on merge — no leftover environments.
Workspaces
Organizations, RBAC down to the project, audit logs, and billing that matches how you ship — not how many plugins you bolted on.
Straight comparison
Git deploys and TLS exist everywhere. What changes is whether Node backends, data, and previews live in one place — and what it costs you to change your mind.
| Feature | Bytstack | Managed FE PaaS | Self-host DIY |
|---|---|---|---|
| Who runs your Node workload | Managed cloud built for long-running Node services, workers, and cron — not only serverless functions. | Excellent for frontends and functions; backends and workers often need another vendor. | You bring every box, proxy, and database upgrade. |
| Databases with the app | Postgres, Redis, branching for previews, PITR, and connection presets in the same dashboard. | Often a separate product or partner add-on with its own bill. | You operate CNPG/Helm charts and DNS yourself. |
| Preview environments | URL, GitHub checks, PR comments, and optional branched data — torn down on merge. | Strong previews for static/edge; backend parity varies. | Scripted if you have time; rarely complete. |
| Leaving later | Standard containers, standard Postgres, portable env. No mystery runtime. | Workloads only exist in their cloud. | You already own the machines — and the toil. |
Connect a repo. Deploy Node with Postgres, domains, and previews in one place. No lock-in tax — just the path from push to production.
