About Relay

Relay gives your team the deploy experience of a managed cloud on machines you already run.

What Relay is

You push to GitHub. Relay builds your image, rolls it out to a server you own, checks that it's healthy, and only then switches traffic to it. You get streaming logs, HTTPS, and one-click rollbacks, without handing your stack to someone else's cloud.

Relay is the control plane. Your VPS, dedicated box or homelab is the fleet. A small agent on each server does the work locally, so your apps and their traffic stay on your machines.

Relay is a personal project, built and run by dquansah.com.

What we believe

  • Your servers should stay yours. Containers run on hardware you choose and pay for, and images live in your own registry.
  • Nothing should reach production unhealthy. Every deploy, including rollbacks, passes a health check before it sees a single request.
  • Less surface to defend. The agent only connects out, so there's no inbound management port to expose or firewall.
  • The deploy loop should be boring. Push, watch it go live, roll back in seconds if you need to.
