ServerOS

About ServerOS

Connect any VPS in one command. ServerOS finds what's already running, shows you all of it in one place, and handles deploys, backups, monitoring and recovery. Bring a server you already run, from any provider (Hetzner, DigitalOcean, Vultr, Linode, OVHcloud and more) or the one under your desk. A read-only scan discovers your sites, databases, workers and containers, whether they run under systemd or Docker, along with ports and resource usage. Nothing is restarted and no config is rewritten. - Import existing servers in about a minute - Scheduled backups to storage you own (any S3 bucket or another machine) - Uptime and response-time monitoring, checked every minute - Alerts to Slack, Discord, email or a webhook, with workflows that can fix issues automatically - Security scan for open ports and pending updates, explained in plain words - 100+ one-click apps like WordPress, Ghost, n8n, Uptime Kuma, Umami and Vaultwarden The daemon generates its own key that never leaves the server and holds a single outbound mutual-TLS connection, so no inbound ports need opening. Your servers, your provider, your bill.

ServerOS FAQ

Do I have to move my servers anywhere?

No. ServerOS runs on the servers you already have, with whichever provider you already pay. Connect one and it stays exactly where it is, on your bill.

What happens to what's already running?

Nothing. The first scan is read-only: it finds your sites, databases, workers and containers and shows them as services. Nothing is restarted and no config is rewritten.

What does the server need?

Linux with systemd on amd64 or arm64, plus curl and outbound HTTPS on port 443. Run the install command as root. No inbound ports need to be opened.

Is it safe to put a daemon on my server?

The daemon makes its own key, which never leaves the server, and holds one outbound mutual-TLS connection to the panel. It can only do a fixed list of things, asks before anything destructive, and logs every action on your server.

What if I stop using ServerOS?

Run serverosd disconnect on the server. Every service keeps running exactly as it is. Remove the machine in the panel and uninstall the daemon whenever you like.
