A full Linux cloud dev environment in seconds, with a browser terminal, the hivepod CLI and its own name.dockhive.sh address.

Choose the region card when you create the pod, or run hivepod create web1 --region us.

Hive Functions

Run code without a server: each function gets its own HTTPS address and runs on every request or on a schedule.

Pick the region when you create the function, or run dockhive functions create orders --language typescript --region us.

Hive Functions

Hive Realtime

Pusher-compatible live messaging for chat, notifications, presence and dashboards. pusher-js and Laravel Echo work as they are.

Create the app in this region and connect to realtime-us.dockhive.io.

Hive Buckets

S3-compatible object storage for uploads, images and backups. Works with the AWS CLI, boto3, the AWS SDKs, Laravel, Django and rclone.

Make this region the bucket's home and read it from https://s3-us.dockhive.io.

DockHive Tunnel

Expose an app running on your own computer at a public HTTPS address on name.dockhive.live, with no port forwarding.

The CLI picks the fastest region on its own, or run dockhive expose 3000 --region us.

DockHive Tunnel

Faster for people near Los Angeles

Every request has to travel to where your app runs and back. Hosting in Los Angeles shortens that trip for people in the United States and the Americas, so pages load and API calls answer sooner than from a region on another continent. Put your app, its database and its storage in the same region and the calls between them stay short too.

Your app address, <name>.dockhive.app, works the same from any region, so you never need a regional hostname. Testing a local app? DockHive Tunnel connects to the fastest region from where you are on its own.

Keep data in the United States

If you need to keep data in the United States, create your resources in Los Angeles. Here is what stays in the region:

  • Apps, databases, n8n workspaces and HivePods you create in Los Angeles are stored there, together with their backups, and stay there.
  • A function created in Los Angeles runs there, and its code, stored data and schedules stay there.
  • A Hive Realtime app created in Los Angeles lives there; its clients and servers connect to the Los Angeles host.
  • Hive Buckets is the exception: files are encrypted and stored across multiple regions, so a whole region can go down without losing data. A bucket only has a home region it is fastest to read from.
  • Your account details (email, plan and billing) are kept centrally to run your account.

This is how DockHive stores data, not legal advice. Check what the rules that apply to you ask of your app. Details: Data and regions.

Pick Los Angeles from the CLI or API

In the console, choose United States (Los Angeles) in the region menu. From the terminal or the API, the region value is us:

Region us 
hivepod create web1 --region us
dockhive expose 3000 --region us
dockhive functions create orders --language typescript --region us
curl "https://api.dockhive.io/api/v1/databases?region=us" -H "Authorization: Bearer $DOCKHIVE_API_KEY"

Questions about hosting in Los Angeles

Which DockHive products can I run in Los Angeles?

App Hosting with Drone, Managed databases, HivePods, App Marketplace, Hive Functions, Hive Realtime, Hive Buckets, n8n workflow hosting and DockHive Tunnel.

How do I deploy to Los Angeles?

Pick United States (Los Angeles) when you create an app, database, HivePod or workspace in the console. In the CLI and API the region value is us, for example hivepod create web1 --region us. A resource stays in the region where you created it.

Will my data stay in the United States?

Apps, databases, n8n workspaces, HivePods and their backups stay in the region you create them in, and so do functions and their stored data. Hive Buckets files are stored across multiple regions for durability, and account details are kept centrally. DockHive does not give legal advice, so check what the rules that apply to you ask of you.

Does my app address change with the region?

No. Your app address (<name>.dockhive.app) works the same wherever the app runs, so you never need a regional hostname for an app.

Do plan limits apply per region?

Plan limits such as the number of apps or HivePods count everything you run across all regions combined. Hive Realtime and Hive Functions allowances are counted in each region separately.

How much does hosting in Los Angeles cost?

The same as every other region. There is a Free Tier, a Developer Plan at $3/month, a Pro Plan at $15/month and a Scale Plan through sales. Beyond your plan, compute is $2 per vCPU-month, billed by the hour. Plans are priced in US dollars.
