Deploy Fastify in 60 Seconds

Fastify is a high-performance Node.js framework focused on speed and developer experience. Deploy your Fastify server with one command — real server, no overhead.

Deploy Fastify Starting at $3/mo

The usual way to deploy Fastify

Fastify listens on 127.0.0.1 by default — must change to 0.0.0.0 for production, which trips up many first-time deployers
Plugin registration order matters: a single await/register mistake and your production server silently fails to start
Setting up fastify-autoload for production file paths that differ from your local dev structure
Configuring PM2 with cluster mode for Fastify requires careful handling of the listen address and graceful shutdown
Logging with pino in production needs log rotation, and piping JSON logs to a file without filling the disk

Fastify is built for speed, but the deployment gap between localhost and production is still wide.

Or just run one command

$ instapods deploy my-fastify-server --preset nodejs

→ Uploading files...

→ Installing dependencies (npm install)...

Fastify deployment notes

Listen on 0.0.0.0

Fastify defaults to 127.0.0.1 which rejects external connections. Set host to "0.0.0.0" and use process.env.PORT for the port.

Schema Validation

Fastify JSON schema validation works the same in production. Compile schemas at startup to avoid runtime overhead on first requests.

Graceful Shutdown

InstaPods sends SIGTERM before stopping your pod. Use fastify.close() in a signal handler to finish in-flight requests cleanly.
