Why Forte exists
The first deployment is easy. Running the whole product is the hard part.
As your user base grows, someone has to handle builds, rollbacks, scaling, and security. On Forte that work is done for you.
- Builds your app
- Forte detects your language and framework and packages the app. A Dockerfile is optional.
- Rolls back failed deployments
- A release only receives traffic after it passes its health checks. If it fails, Forte keeps the last working release live.
- Scales with traffic
- Autoscaling adds capacity when the workload needs it and removes it when traffic drops.
- Blocks abusive traffic
- DDoS protection, a managed firewall, and bot detection on sign-in are on from the first deployment.
- Patches security issuesEarly access
- Forte finds known security issues in what you run and patches them for you.
- Catches breaking changesEarly access
- Forte checks each commit for changes that would break production before the release rolls out.
