v1.0.0 — first public release

BRIDGEPORT is a lightweight, self-hosted deployment management tool for Docker-based infrastructure. Manage servers, deploy containers, monitor health, and orchestrate multi-service rollouts from a single web UI — no Kubernetes required.

This is the first public release. Apache-2.0 licensed.

The problem it solves

Managing Docker containers across multiple servers usually means SSH-ing into each machine, running the right docker pull / docker compose by hand, hoping nothing breaks, and having zero visibility into what's running where. Kubernetes is overkill when you have 3 or 10 servers. BRIDGEPORT fills the gap between "manual SSH" and "full orchestrator".

What's in v1.0

• Multi-server management — connect servers via SSH or Docker socket; auto-discover running containers
• One-click deploys with auto-rollback on failed health checks
• Real-time monitoring — server, service, and database metrics via the bundled Go agent or SSH polling
• Health checks — container, URL, TCP, and TLS-certificate checks with bounce protection
• Encrypted secrets (AES-256-GCM) and SSH keys scoped per environment
• Database backups to any S3-compatible store (DO Spaces, AWS S3, MinIO, Backblaze B2, Wasabi, R2)
• Notifications — in-app, email (SMTP), Slack, and outgoing webhooks
• Interactive service topology — your stack, dependencies, and health at a glance
• Deployment plans — multi-step, dependency-aware rollouts across services
• CLI — bridgeport ssh / logs / exec / deploy from the terminal
• Plugin system — JSON-defined service and database types with monitoring queries
• RBAC with admin / operator / viewer roles
