# Overview
Uncloud makes setting up a **Docker cluster** and **self-hosting web applications** in production dead simple.
Uncloud makes **self-hosting web applications** across multiple machines in production dead simple.
You can combine any machines — from cloud VMs to bare metal servers (no matter where they're located) — into a unified
computing environment that you fully control. Then run and scale multi-service and multi-container web apps and
databases across your machines using simple Docker-like commands
and [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/reference/compose-file/) files.
You can connect any machines — from cloud VMs to bare metal servers (no matter where they're located) — into a secure
private network. Then run and scale multi-service and multi-container web apps and databases across your machines using
simple Docker-like commands and [Docker Compose](https://docs.docker.com/reference/compose-file/) files.
Uncloud covers all the essentials for operating apps in production without overwhelming you with the complexity of
traditional container orchestrators like Kubernetes or Swarm:
* Initial machine and network setup
* Zero-downtime rolling deployments
* Health checks and automatic restarts
* Automatic HTTPS and reverse proxy configuration
* Scaling services across multiple machines
* Cross-machine service communication
* Service discovery
* Cross-machine service communication without exposing ports to the internet
* DNS-based service discovery
* Load balancing
* Persistent storage
