CLUSTER SELF-SERVICES-ALTERNATIVE · 18 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2025-12-21

Self-hosted SSH deployment platforms

This cluster comprises self-hostable platforms that deploy and manage applications, databases, and servers over SSH, offering an alternative to managed cloud services. The dated entry history before the index start is sparse, with one entry in November 2025, one in December 2025, one in March 2026, and three in June 2026, indicating sporadic early activity. Among traction leaders, raycast-homelab stands out with 19 stars, followed by incubacloud (2 stars) and Paperboard (1 star).

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
