Developer infrastructure
Development and Docker
A development VPS is an isolated server used for compatible development tools, container workloads, test services or continuously available backend processes.
The requirement behind the solution
Development environments need predictable administrative access and enough capacity for containers, package builds, logs and supporting services without exposing private development interfaces.
Requirements to define
- Linux distribution compatible with the toolchain
- CPU and memory for builds and containers
- Storage for images, volumes and logs
- SSH keys and restricted network services
- Separation between development and production data
Important considerations
- Container limits still depend on the underlying VPS resources.
- Do not store secrets directly in images or source repositories.
- Review generated configurations before using them on a production server.

Frequently asked questions
Can an Ubuntu VPS run Docker?+
A supported Ubuntu image can run Docker when the plan has sufficient resources and the software is installed and administered correctly.
Should development services be public?+
Expose only services that users must reach. Protect dashboards, databases and development ports with authentication and network controls.
