What you get with managed Meilisearch
Every Meilisearch instance includes the Hostwares platform — not just the container.
One-click deploy
Meilisearch is provisioned, configured and started for you. No compose file to write, no ports to wire up — Hostwares pulls the meilisearch image and wires storage.
SSL included
Every Meilisearch deployment gets HTTPS automatically, on a free hostwares.app subdomain or your own domain with auto-renewing Let's Encrypt.
Dedicated resources
Meilisearch runs on the CPU, RAM and SSD of the pack you pick — not squeezed onto a shared box with everyone else. Resize when you need more.
Full container access
It is your container: exec into Meilisearch, read files, tail logs and set environment variables whenever you need to.
Status and logs
Start, stop and restart Meilisearch from the dashboard and read real container logs when something misbehaves.
Managed by HW
Ask our AI to deploy Meilisearch, change its settings or debug it — from the dashboard, the CLI, or Claude and Cursor over MCP.
