wdot runs your apps and databases on servers that belong to you. Everything in the console is organised in three levels:
- Servers — a machine in the region you picked. It has its own address and its own resources (CPU, memory and storage) that only your projects use.
- Projects — a group of services on one server, usually one product or one environment (for example shop and shop-staging).
- Services — one app or one database. An app is built from a Git repository; a database is created for you.
When you deploy an app, wdot fetches your code, builds it, starts it on your server and gives it a web address. Every deploy is kept in the service's history, so you can go back to an earlier one in a click.
