Introduction to Qeda

What Qeda is, how projects and services fit together, and where to go next.

Qeda is a developer-first cloud platform built for the African market: deploy from Git or Docker, pay by the minute from a prepaid wallet in local currency, and manage everything from one dashboard.

How it fits together

Everything you deploy lives inside a project. A project can hold several services — a web app, a database, a background worker — each deployed independently but able to talk to one another over the internal network.

  • Project — the container for everything related to one app (services, env vars, members).
  • Service — one deployable unit: a Git repo, a Docker image, or a managed database.
  • Deployment — one build-and-release of a service, with its own logs.

The Projects page — every project you have access to lives here. Yours starts empty until you create your first one.

Billing model

Qeda runs on a prepaid wallet, billed per minute of actual usage. Top up from Billing & Wallet with Mobile Money or a card — there is no monthly invoice to forget about.

Note. Running services pause automatically if your wallet reaches zero — your data and configuration stay intact until you top up.

Once your service is live, checking on it doesn't require anything new to learn — its URL and logs are one click away from the project page:
