On-prem Cloud

The full cloud experience on your own hardware

Stackship brings cloud-like developer self-service, managed services, and automated operations to your on-premises infrastructure, without sending data to the cloud.

On-prem Cloud Features

Everything you expect from a cloud provider, running on infrastructure you own and control.

Developer self-service portal

Developers provision applications, databases, and services through a portal. No tickets, no waiting. Platform teams set the guardrails, developers move fast within them.

Managed services on your infrastructure

Deploy managed databases (PostgreSQL, MariaDB, MongoDB), application runtimes, and serverless functions, all running locally on your hardware.

Automated day-2 operations

Stackship handles patching, scaling, backups, monitoring, and certificate management automatically. Reduce operational overhead and focus on delivering value.

Deploy in hours, not months

Go from bare metal to a fully operational cloud platform in hours. Stackship's installer automates cluster bootstrapping, network configuration, and service deployment.

Predictable, transparent costs

No consumption-based surprises. Stackship uses subscription-based resource licensing with clear, predictable pricing that makes budgeting simple and eliminates cost overruns.

Multi-cluster management

Manage multiple on-prem clusters from a single control plane. Deploy policies, updates, and configurations consistently across your entire fleet.

On-prem Cloud Use Cases

How organizations can use Stackship as their internal cloud platform.

Data sovereignty requirements

Organizations in regulated industries that cannot use public cloud due to data residency, privacy, or jurisdictional requirements.

Cost optimization

Companies repatriating workloads from expensive cloud subscriptions to owned hardware, cutting infrastructure costs by 40–60%.

Developer experience

Platform engineering teams that want to offer developers a cloud-like self-service experience without the complexity of building a custom internal developer platform.

Legacy modernization

Organizations modernizing from traditional VM-based infrastructure to containerized, cloud-native operations without migrating to public cloud.

Latency-sensitive workloads

Applications in trading, gaming, real-time analytics, and IoT that require the lowest possible latency by running compute close to users and data.

Compliance-driven infrastructure

Organizations that need to demonstrate complete control over their infrastructure to meet GDPR, NIS2, ISO 27001, or sector-specific regulations.
