# Deploy Medusa JS in One Click with AI

Open source headless commerce engine for building custom e-commerce backends

## What is Medusa?? Why use it?

Medusa is an open source commerce backend that gives developers full control over products, orders, customers, and checkout logic.
Medusa is not a template store. It's a flexible backend engine for serious ecommerce applications.

## Features

For Medusa deployment on Kuberns, you only provide 2 credentials. These credentials are used to access the Medusa admin panel after deployment.
Everything else is preconfigured for production.

## What's Included

### Self-Hosting Medusa JS: The Kuberns Way

Self-Hosting Medusa traditionally requires configuring databases, environment variables, and runtime setup.
On Kuberns, the process is simplified.

- Fork the Medusa starter repository
- Connect your GitHub repository
- Add the required environment variables
- Click Deploy
- That's it. Your Medusa backend launches with HTTPS and production runtime configured
- No Docker setup. No manual server provisioning. No infrastructure decisions.

### Why Deploying Medusa on Platforms Gets Complicated

On other platforms, deploying Medusa often means:

- Manual database provisioning
- Complex environment configuration
- Debugging build failures
- Managing scaling and runtime restarts
- Handling infrastructure alongside business logic
- Medusa is powerful, but the production setup can quickly become infrastructure-heavy.

### Built for Custom Commerce Backends

Medusa is designed for developers who want full control over e-commerce logic.
Kuberns ensures:

- Stable, always-on backend runtime
- Secure handling of credentials
- Clean deployment from your own repository
- Predictable infrastructure without manual tuning
- You build the commerce experience. Kuberns runs the backend reliably.
