# Where is it hosted?

DotApparel solutions are hosted on a Google Cloud product called Firebase. This platform is designed to be more stable, scalable, and powerful than traditional server hosting. It is built using a serverless approach, which means that it automatically scales up and down based on usage, eliminating the need for manual scaling.

Serverless, essentially means there is not a server running 24/7 which makes it more cost-effective. This approach is the same as what larger products like Netflix and Spotify use, making it a reliable and proven option for hosting middleware.
