Coolify Server Migration Guidance

I’m moving my current Linux-based DirectAdmin servers over to Coolify and want an experienced hand to walk me through the entire process. The main workloads we’ll be lifting are a mix of web servers and database servers; no mail services are in scope for now.

What I need from you is a practical, screen-sharing style collaboration: help me design the optimal Coolify architecture, then guide me while I deploy it so I fully understand every step. English or Dutch communication is fine—whichever lets us work fastest.

Some DirectAdmin tweaks may have to be reproduced, but I’m still mapping out exactly which ones, so part of our first session will be reviewing the existing setup and deciding what should be carried across versus what Coolify can handle out-of-the-box.

By the end I expect:
• A running Coolify environment with my web and database services migrated and tested
• Clear notes or a short checklist I can reuse for future servers
• Your availability for a quick follow-up if anything crops up in the first few days

If you’ve led similar migrations and know your way around Linux, containers and Coolify’s deployment flow, let’s get started.
