Features
Everything Pier ships with — alerts, multi-server, backups, load balancing and more.
Auto-build from source — zero Dockerfile required
Pier ships Railpack — Railway's open-source builder and successor to Nixpacks. Push code to Git, Pier detects the language, compiles with BuildKit and runs the resulting image. Supports 24+ languages and frameworks out of the box.
Read moreSelf-hosted npm registry — Pier
Private packages and a transparent npmjs.org mirror in one Rust binary. Works with npm 7–11, yarn classic, yarn berry 2/3/4, pnpm and bun — no Verdaccio container required.
Read moreAlerts & notifications for self-hosted infrastructure
Catch failing deploys, crashed containers, expiring SSL and runaway CPU before your users do — with delivery to Telegram, Discord, Slack and email.
Read moreMulti-server PaaS with lightweight agents
Manage a fleet of remote VPS or bare-metal servers from one dashboard. Agents install with one command, heartbeat every few seconds, and let you spread deployments wherever capacity lives.
Read moreScheduled database & volume backups to S3
Native pg_dump, mysqldump, mongodump and redis BGSAVE. Cron-scheduled, encrypted in transit, shipped to any S3-compatible bucket — including Bunny.net Storage Zones — with retention policies.
Read moreContainer load balancing with replicas
Scale stateless services horizontally — round-robin, weighted or sticky-cookie — and let Traefik distribute traffic across replicas, with automatic health checks and per-server placement.
Read moreBuilt-in database editor — browse & query from the dashboard
Browse tables, collections and keys, and run SQL, mongosh or Redis commands inline — for PostgreSQL, MySQL/MariaDB, MongoDB and Redis. No Adminer, no pgweb, no exposed port. Built into the binary, gated by RBAC, every query audited.
