Database Replications - Cloud 66 Demo

Database replication involves configuring a master and replica database architecture, whereby the replica is an exact copy of the master at all times. This feature is supported for MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis and MongoDB. Database replication can be set up for a single application, between applications, or between database groups. What is Cloud 66? Cloud 66 gives you everything you need to build, deploy and maintain your applications on any cloud, without the headache of dealing with “server stuff”.

Preview Deployments - Cloud 66 Demo

What are Preview Deployments? Preview Deployments automatically build and deploy a (private) preview version of your application whenever you commit changes to your repo. The preview runs alongside your active application and helps you to quickly test changes to your code without having to deploy to a separate environment. What is Cloud 66? Cloud 66 gives you everything you need to build, deploy and maintain your applications on any cloud, without the headache of dealing with “server stuff”.

Upgrading Databases - Cloud 66 Demo

Cloud 66 will not do in-place database upgrades, because this process may cause your application to stop working or may not be possible automatically. To upgrade your database through Cloud 66, we recommend that you create a new application (at which point Cloud 66 will deploy the newer database version). Once the new application is created, you can migrate data from your old application to your new application.

Traffic Rules - Cloud 66 Demo

Traffic consist of one or more functions that run in a sequence. They run from top to bottom and affect the route that each web request to your application takes. They can also block traffic based on different conditions. If traffic is blocked, it will not run through the rest of the rules that come after the current one. What is Cloud 66? Cloud 66 gives you everything you need to build, deploy and maintain your applications on any cloud, without the headache of dealing with “server stuff”.

Team Features - Cloud 66 Demo

Cloud 66 Team Access Control features: Organizations Organizations are the foundation of team access control. They allow you to manage distinct groups of users, teams, applications and other components. They are useful if you need complete separation between different sets of applications and/or users. You can be a member or owner of several Organizations and switch between them using the top-right menu in the web dashboard or the `--org` option of the Cloud 66 Toolbelt (CLI).

Database Backups - Cloud 66 Demo

Cloud 66 supports two types of backups: managed and unmanaged. Managed backups: Using managed backups has several benefits: The 100 most recent managed backups are kept by default. Unmanaged backups: Unmanaged backups are stored on your local server and are available under `/var/cloud66/backups`. The 10 most recent unmanaged backups are kept by default. We don’t charge for unmanaged backups. What is Cloud 66? Cloud 66 gives you everything you need to build, deploy and maintain your applications on any cloud, without the headache of dealing with “server stuff”.
