Staq Software is a DevOps as a service platform. What does that mean exactly? We provide the infrastructure and deployment pipeline that enables your engineering team to launch and scale your product, without spending enormous amounts of time managing clusters, servers, cloud service providers, terraform, vaults, … you get the picture. Our mission is to give your engineering team the toolkit they need to launch and scale your applications, all with the click of a button, so that you can focus entirely on the code and building your product.

Your team will have it’s own dedicated pool of one to many hosts that are only available to your applications (all managed by Staq Software). You can create a team by clicking on the button or going here.
Once your team is created you’ll be taken to your new team’s landing page, where you’ll be able to setup your first application. On Staq Software, an application represents… well.. your application - be it a website, a monolith, an api, anything that can run on a server! Your application is not what you’ll be deploying directly - you will be able to setup multiple environments for your application, and those are what are actually running.
Click the button to create your first application. To “run” versions of your application, we need to know:
