Expertise OVH Cloud & Coolify - Infrastructure moderne
Déployez vos applications sur une infrastructure cloud européenne robuste et évolutive
Cloud infrastructure is the foundation of any modern web project. The choice of hosting provider and deployment platform directly impacts the performance, security, and costs of your project.
We chose OVH Cloud as our infrastructure provider and Coolify as our deployment platform. This combination offers the best of both worlds: the power and reliability of a major European player, with the simplicity of a modern self-hosted PaaS platform.
This stack guarantees you a fully European infrastructure, compliant with the GDPR, independent of the American Cloud Act, with controlled costs and maximum flexibility to evolve your projects.

OVH Cloud: Sovereign European Infrastructure
OVH Cloud is the European leader in cloud hosting with data centers located in France and Europe. This location guarantees native GDPR compliance and independence from the American Cloud Act. Your data remains under European jurisdiction, a crucial criterion for many companies.
OVH's Public Cloud services offer flexible compute instances, S3-compatible block and object storage, load balancers, and private networks. The 99.99% SLA guarantees maximum availability. Prices are competitive compared to American giants (AWS, GCP, Azure) for equivalent performance.
OVH technical support is available in French with guaranteed response times. The management interface and APIs are complete and well documented. Billing is transparent and predictable, without surprise costs like on American hyperscalers.
Coolify: Simplified Deployment
Coolify is an open-source deployment platform that simplifies the management of containerized applications. It is a self-hosted alternative to Heroku, Vercel, or Netlify. You retain complete control over your infrastructure while benefiting from a modern developer experience.
Git-push deployment automatically triggers build and deployment on every commit. Let's Encrypt SSL certificates are automatically generated. The Traefik reverse proxy manages intelligent routing between your applications. Databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis, MongoDB) deploy with one click.
Coolify's intuitive interface allows you to manage your applications, domains, environment variables, and logs without a command line. Non-DevOps teams can deploy and monitor their applications. Slack/Discord notifications alert you in case of a deployment problem.
Deployment and Production
We deploy Directus on OVH Cloud via Coolify for a sovereign European infrastructure. Docker containerization guarantees a reproducible environment. Configurations are versioned and deployments are automated. Your Directus instance is production-ready from day one.
High availability is ensured by PostgreSQL replication, Redis caching, and automated Restic backups. We configure Grafana monitoring to track performance and alert in case of anomalies. Your CMS remains accessible and responsive even in the event of a load spike.
Directus updates are tested in staging before deployment to production. We manage schema migrations and breaking changes between versions. A maintenance contract guarantees that your instance remains up-to-date, secure, and performant over time.
Choosing our OVH Cloud + Coolify expertise means benefiting from:
- a 100% European infrastructure respecting the sovereignty of your data,
- a modern deployment platform with an excellent developer experience,
- controlled and predictable costs without proprietary lock-in,
- complete support from design to maintenance.
You get a robust, scalable, and autonomous infrastructure, adapted to the requirements of modern web projects.
