About

Deploy anything with zero config — databases, backends, cron jobs. The easy full-stack PaaS

What it does

Railway is a cloud platform for shipping web applications: connect a code repository and it detects the right build and deploy settings automatically. It also provides built-in networking, log and metric monitoring, alerting, and support for multiple preview environments tied to pull requests.

Stated on the product site

Deployment model
Deploys from a connected code repository with automatic configuration detection and instant preview deployments.
Networking
Provides private connections, public endpoints, SSL, and load balancing automatically from the moment of deploy.
Protocol support
Automatically detects and handles HTTP, TCP, gRPC, and WebSocket traffic.
Scaling
Scaling is done by adjusting CPU and RAM or adding replicas behind load balancing.
Environments / CI workflow
Supports unlimited environments, an automatic preview deployment per pull request, and one-click rollbacks.
Alert integrations
Sends alerts to Slack, Discord, or email when specified conditions are met.
