About Scalingo
Scalingo is a commercial European PaaS and database-as-a-service. Developers connect a Git repository and the platform builds, deploys, scales and monitors the application, following the same push-to-deploy workflow popularized by Heroku while running on European infrastructure.
The application runtime offers Git-based deploys, autoscaling based on metrics and zero-downtime rolling deploys, with support for many languages and frameworks such as Ruby on Rails, PHP, Node.js, Python, Java, Go, Django, Laravel and Next.js. Its database service operates, secures and backs up databases, with point-in-time recovery, high availability and automatic failover options, and encryption at rest and in transit. Databases include PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, caching and Elasticsearch offerings, with pgvector and OpenSearch options for AI and semantic search. Scalingo is proprietary and vendor-hosted. A free start is offered, along with a pricing page, a compliance section and demos.
