## Documentation

# Deploy and Host Odoo on Railway

Odoo is a suite of business management applications that includes modules for accounting, inventory, sales, project management, manufacturing, and more. It provides an integrated platform for managing various business processes through web-based applications.

## About Hosting Odoo

Odoo runs as a Python WSGI application with PostgreSQL backend, requiring worker process configuration, connection pooling, and reverse proxy setup for production. Each module can extend the database schema, creating dependency and migration challenges. Key concerns include worker tuning for scaling, managing file attachment growth and database bloat, PostgreSQL optimization and caching, lengthy database migrations during deployments, and monitoring application logs and database metrics. The modular architecture allows business users to install apps that modify your database schema and application behavior.
