Native Isolation + Docker: Why Both?

A common question: "If native isolation is active, why include Docker?"

The answer is simple — native isolation protects your hosting accounts at the kernel level. Docker serves a completely different purpose: it lets you quickly deploy and manage your own projects and services alongside your hosting infrastructure.

Want to spin up a workflow automation tool, a private code repository, a monitoring dashboard, or a database for your project? Docker makes it a one-click operation — without touching your server's hosting isolation.

Full Docker Management — Built Into the Panel

Panelica includes a complete Docker management interface with everything you need:

Containers

Create, start, stop, restart, pause, and remove containers from the panel. View real-time logs, open a web terminal directly into any container, monitor live resource usage, and even link containers to your domains for easy access.

Images

Pull images from Docker Hub or any registry, search for images, manage local images, build custom images from Dockerfiles, and clean up unused images to save disk space.

Volumes & Networks

Create persistent storage volumes and browse their contents with a built-in file manager. Set up custom networks to connect your containers, and clean up unused resources with one click.

Compose

Write and edit Docker Compose files with a built-in YAML editor. Deploy multi-container applications, validate configurations, and bring entire stacks up or down.

One-Click App Templates

Deploy popular applications instantly — no Docker knowledge required:

  • n8n — Workflow automation (like Zapier, self-hosted)
  • WordPress — With MariaDB included, ready to go
  • PostgreSQL — Production-ready database
  • MySQL — Classic database server
  • Redis — In-memory cache and message broker
  • Uptime Kuma — Beautiful uptime monitoring dashboard
  • Gitea — Self-hosted Git repository (like GitHub)
  • OpenVPN-AS — Your own VPN server

Custom Registries

Connect to Docker Hub, Amazon ECR, or any private registry. Pull images from your own infrastructure with full authentication support.

Docker + Hosting = Perfect Combination

Your hosting accounts stay isolated and protected by native kernel security. Docker runs alongside — giving you the freedom to deploy any tool, service, or project you need. No conflicts, no compromises.
