GitLab VPS

A GitLab VPS Community Edition is a solution that allows you to have a dedicated GitLab instance, pre-installed on Ubuntu, with full root access.

GitLab is a complete DevOps platform for source code management, project tracking, CI/CD pipelines, team collaboration and continuous deployment. It centralizes the entire development lifecycle in a single web interface.

At LWS, GitLab is offered as an automated template for KVM VPS. You thus benefit from a self-hosted GitLab, ready to use, on a secure virtual server with dedicated resources (CPU, RAM, SSD).

When your secure private GitLab VPS is activated, you receive an email containing your interface address, your login credentials as administrator and your root SSH access. The GitLab Community Edition instance is already pre-installed on Ubuntu and ready to use.

You immediately access your personal interface, with all the GitLab features: project creation, user management, tickets, groups, CI/CD pipelines and more. You can also technically manage your server at any time via the LWS KVM panel. It allows you to restart, reinstall, backup or monitor your VPS with full autonomy.

With a self-hosted GitLab VPS at LWS, you have your own server, with GitLab installed and ready to use. Unlike GitLab.com (shared hosting), you benefit here from:

• full root access,
• a dedicated GitLab instance, with no sharing with other users,
• guaranteed resources (CPU, RAM, storage),
• greater freedom: customization, plugins, runners, integrations…
• and hosting in France, on a secure infrastructure certified ISO 27001:2022.

It's the ideal solution to maintain complete control of your GitLab environment, without depending on a third-party service.
