What you give up vs Netlify
- No built-in CI/CD pipelines or Git-based deploy workflows like Heroku/Render
- App store limited to curated Docker images; no support for custom buildpacks
- No auto-scaling, horizontal scaling, or load balancing across multiple hosts
- SSL/TLS certificate management is basic compared to managed PaaS offerings
What you gain
- • Full data ownership — self-host CasaOS on your own infrastructure.
- • No per-seat SaaS bill (Netlify: surprise bandwidth overages).
- • Open-source code you can audit and extend (Apache-2.0).
