Why Choose Managed Directus Hosting

Most founders lose 4-6 hours every month to server maintenance. Managed hosting gives you those hours back.

Zero DevOps Burden

You stop managing servers. We handle backups, scaling, database optimization, and security patches. Your entire team stays focused on building your product. That's 50+ hours saved per year.

EU Data Residency + GDPR by Default

Your data lives in ISO 27001-certified German data centers. No data exports to the US. GDPR Data Processing Agreement included in every plan. Audit-ready from day one, no extra work.

Flat-Rate Pricing, No Surprises

Directus Cloud charges €50 per extra team member. Opsily's flat-rate model scales your team for free. Invite 10 people or 100 people, your bill stays the same. No seat-based overages, ever.

What It Actually Does

Managed hosting removes the infrastructure tax on startups

When you self-host Directus on a VPS, you're not just running the application. You're running a business: managing database backups, patching security vulnerabilities, scaling when traffic spikes, monitoring disk space, rotating logs, handling SSL renewal, debugging deployment failures at 2 AM.

None of that is your product. All of it takes time.

Managed Directus hosting puts those tasks on a dedicated team:

  • Daily encrypted backups retained for 90 days. One-click restore if something breaks.
  • Automatic security updates to Directus and your database. No manual patching.
  • Automatic scaling when your traffic grows. No capacity planning.
  • 24/7 monitoring of CPU, memory, disk, and database performance. Alerts before things fail.
  • One-click deployments. No Docker, Kubernetes, SSH access required.

This matters most if you're under 50 people. A team that size has no dedicated ops person. Self-hosting forces a founder or engineer to own this burden part-time. Managed hosting lets them code instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about managed Directus hosting on Opsily.

Managed Directus hosting is a fully-managed service where a hosting provider (like Opsily) runs Directus for you on dedicated infrastructure. Instead of you managing servers, databases, backups, and security updates yourself, the provider handles all of that. You get a working Directus instance in minutes and spend your time building content and APIs, not maintaining infrastructure. It's especially valuable for small teams without a dedicated DevOps engineer.
