Discourse Hosting, Maintenance, & Managed Services
Have a professional manage your Discourse server. All maintenance contracts include monitoring, backups on your or our S3-compatible service, and handling any tasks that require access to the command line. Literate Computing can maintain your Discourse instance on your infrastructure or ours depending on your policies and requirements. We have managed simple and complex deployments of Discourse on GCP, AWS, and Digital Ocean as well as our own bare metal servers hosted outside of Boston.
All plans include mail delivery sent from your own domain name. Standard and Business plans require you to have your own mail delivery service; Business and Custom plans optionally include mail delivery. Mailgun is recommended; other services may incur additional startup costs.
The Discourse tests-passed version is recommended, but for Standard and higher plans you can also choose the Beta or Stable branches.
