Velociraptor is a Django- and Celery-powered web application for building and
deploying software services. It is very opinionated about how this should be
done, adhering (with one or two exceptions) to the Twelve Factor App
_
methodology.
Velociraptor is language agnostic. It can deploy apps in Python, PHP, Ruby, Node.js, Java, Scala, Go, or any other language that runs on Linux.
Velociraptor supports zero downtime deployment for apps that include
uptests <http://velociraptor.readthedocs.org/en/latest/uptests.html>
