Deployment Modes
Upbound Cloud Spaces come in two deployment modes:
- Cloud Spaces: Multi-tenant Upbound-hosted, Upbound-managed Space environment. Cloud Spaces provide a typical SaaS experience. All customers have access to Cloud Spaces by default.
- Dedicated Spaces: Single-tenant Upbound-hosted, Upbound-managed Space environment. Dedicated Spaces provide a SaaS experience, with additional isolation guarantees that your workloads run in a fully isolated context.
The Upbound platform uses a federated model to connect each Space back to a central service called the Upbound Console, which is deployed and managed by Upbound.
For customer-hosted deployments, see the Self-Hosted Spaces documentation. Self-Hosted Spaces include Managed Spaces (Upbound-managed, customer-hosted) and Self-Hosted Spaces (customer-managed, customer-hosted).
Dedicated Spaces
Dedicated Spaces offer the following benefits:
- Single-tenancy A control plane space where Upbound guarantees you're the only tenant operating in the environment.
- Connectivity to your private network Establish secure network connections between your Dedicated Cloud Space running in Upbound and your own resources behind your private network.
- Reduced Overhead. Offload day-to-day operational burdens to Upbound while focusing on your job of building your platform.
