# Cloud Documentation
|
|
|
|
Welcome to the Cloud documentation. Learn about Cloud, its features, how to sign up, and how to use it.
|
|
|
|
## What is Cloud?
|
|
|
|
Cloud is Medusa's Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) offering that facilitates deploying and operating your Medusa projects. You don't need to worry about configuring, scaling, and maintaining your application's infrastructure and resources.
|
|
|
|
By using Cloud, you only need to focus on building a commerce application that meets your business requirements. Cloud provides a seamless developer experience with features like direct deployments from GitHub, instant preview environments, and more.

## Features
|
|
|
|
- **Direct deployments from GitHub**: Deploy your Medusa projects directly from your GitHub repository, and trigger deployments automatically on every push to the main branch.
|
|
- **Multiple Environments**: Create multiple environments for your projects, such as staging and production, to test changes before deploying them to production.
|
|
- **Instant Preview Environments**: Every time you open a Pull Request (PR) in your GitHub repository, a new preview environment is created where you can review changes before merging them.
|
|
- **Fully Managed Resources**: Cloud manages your project's resources like PostgreSQL, Redis, S3, and more. You don't have to worry about configuring and maintaining them.
|
|
- **Zero Downtime Deployments and Scalability**: Cloud rolls out changes to production with zero downtime, never interrupting your users. Cloud also automatically scales your project to meet peak traffic demands.
|
|
- **Logging**: Monitor your project's runtime and build logs for all environments, so you can easily debug issues in your project.
|
|
- **Dedicated Support**: Based on your plan, you can receive dedicated support from the Medusa team to help you with any issues you may encounter.

## Frequently Asked Questions
|
|
|
|
### Do I need to learn about Medusa to use Cloud?
|
|
|
|
Since you deploy Medusa projects on Cloud, you need a developer who is familiar with Medusa to set up your project and add customizations for your business needs. Learn about Medusa in the [Getting Started](!docs!/learn) guide.
|
|
|
|
You can also contact a [Medusa Expert](https://medusajs.com/experts/) to help you with building your Medusa project and deploying it on Cloud.
|
|
|
|
### Does Cloud support hosting storefronts?
|
|
|
|
Cloud can only host Medusa servers and admin dashboards. To host your storefront, you can use hosting providers like Vercel.
|
|
|
|
Learn more in the [Connect Production Storefront](./connect-storefront/page.mdx) guide.
|
|
|
|
### What resources does Cloud provide?
|
|
|
|
Cloud fully-manages your [PostgreSQL databases](./database/page.mdx), [Redis instances](./redis/page.mdx), and [S3 buckets](./s3/page.mdx). You don't need to configure or maintain them.
|
|
|
|
### Do I own my code and data for my Medusa project on Cloud?
|
|
|
|
Yes, your code is hosted on your GitHub repository. You can also export a dump of your Cloud database at any time.
|
|
|
|
### Can I deploy multiple projects on Cloud?
|
|
|
|
Yes, if your plan supports multiple projects. Contact our [sales team](https://medusajs.com/contact/) to learn more about the available plans.
|
|
|
|
### Can I use my custom plugins and modules on Cloud?
|
|
|
|
Yes, you can use any custom and out-of-the-box plugins and modules in your Medusa project deployed on Cloud. You retain the same flexibility as you would with a self-hosted Medusa project.
|
|
|
|
You can deploy projects like marketplaces, B2B, subscription-based stores, and more on Cloud.
|
|
|
|
### Does Cloud create new Medusa projects for each deployment?
|
|
|
|
No, Cloud does not create new Medusa projects for your deployments. Instead, it deploys your existing Medusa project from your GitHub repository. |
