Jokku runs git-pushed apps in Firecracker microVMs
Jokku presents a self-hosted deployment platform for building apps from a Dockerfile and running them across servers you own.
- For
- Operators deploying apps on their own servers
- Worth noticing
- The page describes moving persistent volumes during node drains while apps keep running, with encrypted backups to S3-compatible storage.
Field notes
The getting-started path calls for a fresh Ubuntu or Debian server with KVM, SSH keys, and four commands: install, push, attach a domain, and enable Let’s Encrypt. The page describes each instance as a Firecracker VM with a read-only image-derived disk and separate writable root and volume disks. It labels the release v0.5.0 and the project “Early development,” so the stated capabilities should be read as project claims rather than independently verified behavior.
