Deploying data capsules

Your capsules do not persist data by default as you might be used to from a VPS or your local machine. Every time they are restarted for any reason, they will pull a completely fresh copy of your code from GitHub. You can read more about persistence here. If you want your application to persist data that is not in your repository, you should use one of our data capsules. You can find guides to set up different data capsules below.

Deploying a MySQL data capsule

Follow our MySQL data capsule set up guide to set up a MySQL database for your Capsule.

Deploying a MongoDB data capsules
