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.
