Flexible hosting. Clear ownership.

Our cloud.
Your cloud. Your choice.

Launch with Backify hosting, or deploy into your own Azure subscription. Choose managed convenience or ownership of your application infrastructure—with Backify coordinating the path to production.

Start with paid Starter: €19 or $19/month before tax. A 30-day money-back guarantee applies to your first Starter purchase. Compare plans and guarantee terms.

Choose the right starting point

Start managed. Choose customer Azure when you need it.

Both routes use Backify for deployment operations. Your plan determines which hosting choices are available.

Backify hosting

Start on Starter or Team without connecting your own Azure subscription. Hosted apps include monthly capability allowances; Starter has hard caps and Team bills excess usage.

Your own Azure

Available on Business and Enterprise. Involve your Azure administrator to review scope and permissions. You pay Microsoft directly for your resources; Backify platform fees remain separate.

Plan for long-term ownership

Your source stays in GitHub. Review data export, runtime dependencies, identity access, support, and offboarding before adoption; customer hosting does not remove every platform dependency.

Cloud ownership that fits your business

Keep application resources in your subscription.

Use customer Azure when your team needs to own application infrastructure and its cloud bill. Backify provides the control plane separately; it does not run entirely inside your subscription.

YOUR AZURE

Resources you own

Application hosting
Application containers, registry, storage, and associated runtime resources in the connected subscription.
Cloud billing
Azure charges for the resources running in your subscription.
Authorization to connect
Your administrator authorizes setup and reviews the designated resource-group scope.
BACKIFY

Control plane responsibilities

Governed operations
Authorization, policy evaluation, applicable approvals, and recorded deployment activity.
Provisioning and deployment
The worker reconciles application infrastructure and deploys authorized revisions.
Platform billing
Platform fees remain separate from your Azure resource costs.

Your data. Your hosting region.

Choose where your application data lives.

Host your application and its regional data resources in a supported region you choose for your deployment target. Align your hosting location with your users and your organization’s requirements.

A deliberate deployment choice.

Select a permitted region
Your cloud connection and deployment target determine which regions are available. Confirm support for the resources your application needs.
Set your workspace defaults
Preselect a region for new applications. Changing the default does not move existing applications or their data.
Review the whole data flow
Check application data, backups, replication, and external services against your residency requirements—not just the hosting location.

Application hosting, not a blanket residency guarantee. Backify control-plane data is a separate boundary and should be reviewed independently.

Discuss your region requirements

Review the permission model

Three identities. Three different jobs.

Agree on access with your cloud administrators before onboarding.

01 / DEPLOY

Backify deployment principal

Contributor on the designated resource group, plus required registry, storage, and Key Vault data roles. Used by the deployment worker.

02 / BUILD

GitHub CI principal

Registry image-push access through repository- and branch-specific federation. CI passes an immutable image digest to Backify.

03 / RUN

Application runtime identity

Registry pull and required application-resource access. Runtime access is distinct from cloud-management operations.

Build on your existing cloud foundation

Connect with your cloud team, then build.

An organization Owner or Administrator selects Connect Azure, chooses a subscription and region, and confirms onboarding.

  1. 1

    Confirm the target

    Review region, resource-group scope, administrator permissions, and your organization’s hosting requirements.

  2. 2

    Establish the connection

    Create the required resource and identity boundaries. Restricted tenants can review the advanced manual setup.

  3. 3

    Connect GitHub and publish

    Link the repository and branch. Preview and production use separate Container Apps; publishing follows the Backify authorization path.

Plan offboarding before adoption. Your resources and cloud billing stay in your subscription. Agree on data export, deployment dependencies, identity revocation, and application ownership. Customer hosting does not eliminate all platform dependencies.

Deployment planning

Bring your next app to your Azure.

Plan your customer Azure deployment with our team. Bring your hosting requirements and Azure administrator to discuss scope, access, and the path to your first release.
