# Deploy and Host GlitchTip on Railway

GlitchTip is an open-source, Sentry-compatible error tracking and uptime monitoring platform. It offers a simple, affordable alternative to proprietary solutions, allowing you to collect error reports, monitor application performance, and track uptime using standard Sentry SDKs.

## About Hosting GlitchTip

Hosting GlitchTip involves deploying a Python (Django) web application along with integrated background worker for processing event data. The architecture requires a PostgreSQL database to store issues, events, and user data, and a Redis instance to handle caching and the asynchronous task queue.

The application is container-native and configured entirely via environment variables, making it highly suitable for Railway. While GlitchTip is lightweight enough for small teams, it can be scaled horizontally by increasing the number of replicas to handle high-volume event ingestion.

## Common Use Cases

- Error Tracking: Capture and organize exceptions from your applications in real-time using Sentry SDKs.
- Uptime Monitoring: Verify that your external services and websites are reachable and responsive.
- Performance Monitoring: Track transaction latencies and identify slow database queries or API calls.

## Dependencies for GlitchTip Hosting

- PostgreSQL: Primary data store for organizations, projects, and event data.
- Redis: Used as the message broker for background workers and for caching.
- Bucket: Used to store uploaded data such as source maps.
