I don't think there is. I have looked in the past and everything I could find was PHP based.

I am currently using Linode (if you look at their documentation there is a promo code), and any other similar hosting service can allow you to run Django, however you have to do all the setup yourself, e.g. install the OS, install python, nginx reverse proxy.

It's not too hard, but it is a little time consuming.

Thanks for your response, Let me check

Also, Is Linode having 24/7 live support.

Yes, you can see what support they offer at linode.com/support/

If you work always with the same stack I'd recommend you to write a bash with all that configuration so you just need to run it whenever you pick a new server 😁

Try pythonanywhere.com

I hadn't seen this! Looks like a good solution.

You can use Linode, Digital Ocean and Microsoft Azure or any other cloud provider to deploy your Django web app. But you have to do a lot of stuff manually like installing gunicorn, configuring the reverse proxy like Nginx etc. There is a youtube tutorial that explains all of this in a great depth. You can take a look at it.

Step 1. Pick any VPS (managed or not, depending on your preferences or needs)
Step 2. enter through SSH
Step 3. Install python (and any other Django dependency if any)
Step 4. Deploy your application into the server using any methodology that suits best to you ( check that for reference ).

Enjoy your own VPS!

This approach is usually cheaper and becomes even cheaper once you scale (you just need to scale the VPS resources if needed) so I'd start with a 2€/month VPS and scale it only if needed.

Moreover you can host almost unlimited websites and applications into it and even using different languages if you want as well as having different databases self-hosted so you can do a project using PostgreSQL, another one with MySQL and so on.

I work with JS but as far as I can remember, if you pick a VPS with CPanel they provide an easy way to handle python apps.
