dFlow Cloud

dFlow Cloud hosts the dFlow control plane for you. You still attach or purchase Worker Nodes for the environments where Services run; your servers remain yours; dFlow orchestrates deploys and configuration.

Why use the cloud version

  • Less setup: no Docker Compose stack to run for the dashboard itself.
  • Updates: control-plane updates are handled by the service (exact cadence is defined by dFlow operations).
  • Access from anywhere; use a normal browser session to app.dflow.sh.
  • Secure connection to your nodes: SSH and credentials stay under your control; dFlow drives provisioning through the product flows.

Where to sign in

Open https://app.dflow.sh.

The cloud dashboard runs on that domain. Custom domains for the control plane login are not the default experience; expect to use app.dflow.sh unless your organisation has a documented exception.

Browser and connectivity

CategoryGuidance
BrowserCurrent Chrome, Brave, or another Chromium-based browser
DeviceDesktop recommended; mobile may be limited for complex flows
NetworkStable connection (roughly 5 Mbps or better for a smooth UI)

Relationship to self-hosting

If you need the control plane inside your network, use Self-hosting overview under Self-Hosting dFlow in the sidebar instead. The Application β†’ Environment β†’ Service model is the same.
