How it works
- 01Run dock deployRun
dock deployin your project folder, or connect a GitHub repository. - 02We build itWe detect Python from
requirements.txt · pyproject.toml, install dependencies and build an image. - 03It goes liveYour app gets a container, free SSL and a live https://….dockhosting.cloud URL.

Compare
Python shared hosting usually means a fixed interpreter and a WSGI setup you cannot change. DockHosting runs your app under Gunicorn or Uvicorn with the dependency manager you actually use - requirements.txt or Poetry - and runs migrations before switching traffic.
| Feature | DockHosting | Python shared hosting |
|---|---|---|
| First deploy | pip/Poetry install, run migrations, zero-downtime switch | Upload code to a fixed interpreter with pre-installed packages |
| Runtime & dependencies | Auto-detected and matched to your lockfile | Whatever version the host pinned at signup |
| HTTPS | Automatic Let's Encrypt on your subdomain and custom domains | Manual certificate setup and renewal (or a paid add-on) |
| Process supervision | Automatic restarts and zero-downtime releases | You babysit it, or hope the panel restarts it |
| Managed database | 1 included on Free, unlimited on Pro/Team | Host it yourself, or pay for a separate add-on |
| Idle / always-on | Sleep + instant wake (Free) or always-on (Pro/Team) | You pay for an idle server 24/7 |
| Pricing | Flat $0 / $4 / $9 / $19 per month, no metering | Server cost + setup fees + your time |
The bottom lineFor Django, Flask or FastAPI you get your choice of dependency manager, async workers and a managed PostgreSQL on the Free plan - things most Python hosts leave to you.
Everything you need to know before you deploy your first Python app.
Yes - if a manage.py is detected, migrate runs automatically before traffic switches to the new release.
