Deployment Modes

Upbound Spaces can be deployed and used in a variety of modes:

  • Cloud Spaces: Multi-tenant Upbound-hosted, Upbound-managed Space environment. Cloud Spaces provide a typical SaaS experience.
  • 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.
  • Managed Spaces: Single-tenant customer-hosted, Upbound-managed Space environment. Managed Spaces provide a SaaS-like experience, with additional guarantees of all hosting infrastructure being served from your own cloud account.
  • Self-Hosted Spaces: Single-tenant customer-hosted, customer-managed Space environment. This is a fully self-hosted, self-managed software experience for using Spaces. Upbound delivers the Spaces software and you run it yourself.

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.

By default, customers have access to a set of Cloud Spaces.

Supported clouds

You can use host Upbound Spaces on Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Regardless of the hosting platform, you can use Spaces to deploy control planes that manage the lifecycle of your resources.
