Hosting

Hyvor Relay is a self-hosted, open-source email API for developers. Think of it as an alternative to AWS SES, Mailgun, or SendGrid, but you host it on your own infrastructure.

Self-Hosting is first-class

Hyvor Relay is designed to be self-hosted easily.

  • Minimal Dependencies: Easy docker-based deployments with just PostgreSQL as a dependency.
  • Automation: Automatic server registration, IP address configuration, and health checks. In-built DNS server for DNS automation.
  • Self-contained: Everything (email queues, bounce SMTP server, webhooks, DNS) is built into a single docker image.
  • Dashboards for ease: Web interfaces for admins and users to ease setup and debugging.
  • Industry-grade Monitoring: Prometheus, Grafana, Altermanager integrations are built-in for observability.

Get started: Prod Deploy (multiple servers for large sending volumes) or Easy Deploy (single server for small to medium sending volumes).

Security

DDoS

Layer 7: Hyvor Relay has built-in rate limiting to prevent DDoS attacks at the application layer for the HTTP server.

Layer 3/4: You need to ensure that your server is protected against DDoS attacks at the network layer. This is usually managed by your cloud provider.
