dFlow Cloud overview

Why use dFlow Cloud, where to sign in, browser requirements, and how it relates to your Worker Nodes.

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

Category

Guidance

Browser

Current Chrome, Brave, or another Chromium-based browser

Device

Desktop recommended; mobile may be limited for complex flows

Network

Stable 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 → Environment → Service model is the same.
