Node.js 24 from app.js
Express, Fastify or any framework that serves HTTP, started from app.js. NODE_ENV is production unless you set it otherwise.
Node.js hosting
Node.js hosting: git push, and your Node.js 24 app is live
Connect GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket. Every push runs npm ci and your build, then switches live — no server, PM2 or reverse proxy to run.

Everything a Node.js app needs, run for you
You write the app. We install it, build it, start it, keep it running and keep the last five versions ready to switch back to.
npm ci on every deploy
Dependencies are installed from your package-lock in a fresh directory, then your build command runs, before the new release takes over.
Preview URL per branch
Push any branch other than production and it gets its own address, served beside your live app without touching it.
Secrets out of your repo
API keys go in the environment variables panel, stored in a secret store and handed to both your build and your running app.
Logs where you look
Your app's own stderr appears in the log viewer next to the web server's lines, from the dashboard or the zinnector CLI.
Memory and CPU that are yours
Each app has its own memory and CPU allowance, enforced per account, so a neighbour cannot take it.
Deploys that cannot take your site down
A failed npm ci or build never reaches visitors: the release already live keeps serving and the deploy log shows why. When a release does go live and you change your mind, switching back is instant, because the last five releases stay on the server.
- npm ci and your build finish before any traffic moves
- One-click rollback to any of the last five releases
- A restart button when you need one
- Free SSL certificate for your domain
- SSH and scheduled tasks on every plan
From repository to running Node.js app
Start the free trial
Node.js is picked for you. A card is required for the trial and is not charged.
Connect your repository
Link the GitHub, GitLab or Bitbucket repository that holds your package.json and pick the production branch.
Set your build and variables
Add a build command if you have one, and your environment variables.
git push
Push to production and it becomes a release; push any other branch for a preview.
The one file we look for
An app.js that starts your server. Dependencies come from package.json.
// app.js — the file we start
const express = require("express");
const app = express();
app.get("/", (req, res) => res.send("Hello, world"));
app.listen(process.env.PORT || 3000);Node.js hosting plans
Sized by the Node.js process: 1 GB of memory and 1 CPU core on Dev Start, 2 GB and 2 cores on Dev Pro, 4 GB and 4 cores on Dev Scale — for one, five or twenty apps.

- Try it firstEvery managed plan starts with a free trial of 14 days, so you can put a real site on it before you pay for anything.
- 30-day money-back guaranteeIf a managed plan is not right for you, tell us within 30 days of your first payment and we refund it. Application hosting is covered. Read the refund policy
- Real support, includedSupport is included on every plan, from people who run this platform rather than a script. Accounts that cannot wait can go to the front of the queue. How priority support works
What these plans do not run
- Containers, Docker images and Kubernetes run on a Zinn® Private Cloud server, not on these plans.
- Long-running background workers and queue consumers are not supported here; scheduled tasks are.
- Production and its branch previews share the app's memory and CPU allowance.
Node.js hosting: questions
Which Node.js version do you run?
Node.js 24. Your app starts from app.js, and NODE_ENV is set to production unless you set your own value.
Do I need PM2 or NGINX?
No. The web server starts and runs your app for you, so there is no process manager or reverse proxy to configure.
Can I run Next.js or another framework with a build step?
Yes, if it runs as a Node.js server from app.js. Set your build command and it runs on every deploy, before the new release goes live.
Can I use WebSockets or background workers?
Long-lived background workers are not supported on these plans. For WebSocket-heavy apps, workers or containers, a Zinn® Private Cloud server is the better fit.
Is there a free trial?
Yes, 14 days on Dev Start with Node.js preselected. A card keeps trials for real people; nothing is charged unless you choose a plan.
Can I connect a database?
Yes. Use a Zinn® Managed Database (PostgreSQL or MySQL) or a Redis cache fenced to your site, and put the connection details in your environment variables.
