On-Prem Cloud Platform guides
On-Prem Cloud Platform (OPCP) is a comprehensive solution for deploying, automating and maintaining on-premises cloud environments. It brings cloud capabilities directly to your own locations — on site, at the edge or in isolated environments — and can operate in a fully independent, disconnected mode, helping you meet your sovereignty and compliance requirements while keeping full control of your data.
The platform is built from three layers, each covered by these guides:
- OPCP Core automates infrastructure management (node discovery, network configuration, resource allocation) with built-in traceability, security and observability.
- CloudStore lets you deploy pre-configured services — virtualisation, containers, databases and more — from a local, automated catalogue.
- Landing Zone Manager gives your teams a dedicated, isolated space to deploy and manage their workloads, with fine-grained access control and lifecycle management.
To find the right guide for your needs:
- Are you preparing, deploying or operating your platform? See the Getting started section for prerequisites, controller installation, node and instance operations.
- Are you managing identities and permissions? See the Security section.
- Are you using CloudStore or the Landing Zone Manager? See the corresponding sections.
