SSH Access
Direct access, full control!
Direct Access, Total Control
While most day-to-day development tasks can be handled through the DooWise interface, there are times when engineers need more: full terminal access to investigate issues, tweak configurations, or execute advanced DevOps workflows. That’s where secure SSH access comes in.
DooWise provides every environment with optional, controlled SSH capabilities. Whether you’re debugging, deploying manually, or inspecting logs in real-time, you get the access you need; without compromising platform security.
Why SSH Access Matters
Graphical interfaces are great for visibility and control, but SSH gives developers and operators full flexibility:
- Immediate access to running containers and servers.
- Real-time diagnostics and debugging tools.
- Manual updates, configurations, and script executions.
Sometimes, the fastest fix happens in the terminal. With DooWise, you can get there fast; and securely.
Secure by Design
SSH access on DooWise is built with security at its core:
- Key-based authentication only (no passwords allowed).
- Environment-specific access rules.
- Audit logs for every SSH session.
- Time-limited session tokens (optional).
You can grant access when needed and revoke it instantly, ensuring tight control over infrastructure exposure.
Granular Role - Based Permission
Not every user needs shell access; and not every environment should allow it. DooWise lets you configure who can SSH where, with fine-grained permissions:
- Per-environment access control.
- Developer, admin, and read-only roles.
- Automatic access expiration for contractors or temporary collaborators.
This protects production while enabling flexibility in dev and test environments.
Multi-Environment Shell Access
Need to compare logs across staging and production? Or test commands in dev before running in prod? DooWise supports seamless access across environments:
- SSH into any environment with one command.
- Match local development workflows with remote containers.
- View logs, metrics, and processes from the same terminal.
It’s one system, many environments; all under your fingertips.
One-Click Key Management
Managing SSH keys doesn’t need to be a chore. DooWise includes key management features directly in your user profile:
- Upload and manage your own public keys.
- Assign keys to specific environments or teams.
- Rotate keys without restarting services.
This gives every developer control over their access without needing a DevOps intermediary.
Container-Level Isolation
When you connect to your environment via SSH, you’re dropped into the exact container running your app or service:
- No shared infrastructure; your processes are isolated.
- Access scoped to container boundaries.
- Direct visibility into real service behavior.
This makes it easy to debug app-specific issues without noise from other services.
Logs, Monitoring, and SSH: Unified
DooWise integrates terminal access with your observability tools:
- Jump to container logs from the terminal.
- Trigger redeploys or backups via CLI.
- Connect SSH sessions to real-time alerts and anomaly detection.
This means your CLI and UI are two halves of the same experience — not competing systems.
Emergency Response Capability
In high-stakes scenarios like downtime or security incidents, immediate terminal access can make all the difference:
- Bypass UI latency with direct container access.
- Restart, patch, or kill processes in real time.
- Pull emergency logs before environments are rebuilt.
DooWise empowers your team to act fast and solve problems without waiting.
