Laravel Forge is a server management and deployment service for PHP and Laravel applications that provisions servers on providers such as DigitalOcean, AWS, Hetzner, Vultr, and Linode. Founded in 2014, it configures an Nginx, PHP, MySQL/MariaDB/Postgres, and Redis stack on servers you own. It targets PHP and Laravel developers running their own servers, with paid plans rather than a free tier and the server cost billed separately. It includes a control panel, multi-provider support, and backups on higher plans, though not staging or auto-scaling.
