How it Works
The World’s Easiest Wagtail Deployment
CodeRed Cloud is inspired by simplicity and “it just works” philosophy. Simply write plain vanilla Django, Wagtail, WordPress, or static site code. No special packages or 3rd party services required.
Then, deploy your site with a single command (cr deploy
),
or using SFTP, and your site is live in a matter of seconds!
Automate deployments on git push
with GitHub, GitLab,
Azure DevOps, or any continuous integration system.
Worry-Free Hosting for Agencies and Businesses
Simple. CodeRed handles everything for you: database, static + media files, daily backups, a staging environment for testing*, SSL certificates, and even automatic security patches.
Reliable. Our platform monitors your site 24x7 and pages a CodeRed engineer if your site goes down*. Engineers will resolve the problem, or quickly notify you to minimize impact.
Expert Support. Our support team of US-based developers is ready to help you navigate all things Django, Wagtail, and WordPress.
Inspired Security Suite
Free SSL
Full Encryption
Auto Security Patches
We take security seriously. Each website includes an SSL certificate by default, full data encryption in motion and at rest, encrypted backups, encrypted environment variables, and automatic security patches to PHP/Python.
Content Optimization
CSS+JS Minification
Image Compression
Caching
Our optimization service* is built on Google Pagespeed and automatically combines and minifies JavaScript and CSS. Images are compressed and optimized on the fly to further reduce page load times. Static assets are automatically cached and served with proper headers to speed up page load times.
High-Powered Hardware
Built on Azure
AMD EPYC CPUs
Premium SSDs
CodeRed Cloud runs on premium tier Microsoft Azure infrastructure: massive D-Series machines, premium solid-state storage, and powerful database servers. Each website runs in a secure container with reserved resources. Python/PHP workers use in-memory caches to serve up requests at lightning-fast speeds.

Our Backstory
CodeRed LLC was founded in 2013 in Cleveland, Ohio, USA as a web development and cloud services agency providing consulting and technical project work. Over the years we have built hundreds of Django-based websites, APIs, and projects for our clients.
By 2019, our in-house hosting platform had become so advanced, that we realized it should be opened to the public and fill the last piece of the puzzle: a truly simple way of hosting Django. Further inspired by Tom Dyson’s lightning talk about Wagtail as a Service — it was clear that Django developers wanted a service like CodeRed Cloud.
We officially launched CodeRed Cloud in 2020, and concluded the beta program in 2021. We now have a permanent Free tier, and an Enterprise tier for businesses and governments with numerous Django and Wagtail sites.
