Sovern Cloud vs Sovern Business OS

Sovern ships as two product tiers that share the same architecture, the same fifteen-layer model, and the same design system. The difference is where it runs and how much control you need.

Sovern Cloud

Sovern Cloud is the hosted offering. Your workspace runs on Sovern-managed infrastructure with automatic updates, managed backups, and built-in high availability. Cloud is the fastest way to get started: sign up, create an organization, and begin structuring your operations immediately.

• Fully managed infrastructure with automatic scaling.

• Continuous updates delivered without downtime.

• Shared Marketplace access for plugins, templates, and service providers.

• Ideal for startups, growing teams, and organizations that want operational structure without infrastructure overhead.

Sovern Business OS

Sovern Business OS is the self-hosted edition for enterprises that require full data sovereignty, custom deployment topologies, or air-gapped environments. You deploy the same platform on your own infrastructure, with complete control over networking, storage, and compliance boundaries.

• Deploy on-premise, in your private cloud, or in hybrid configurations.

• Full control over data residency, encryption keys, and network policies.

• Custom SSO, SCIM provisioning, and enterprise identity federation.

• Private Marketplace for internal plugins and curated partner integrations.

• Dedicated support and SLA-backed uptime guarantees.

Same architecture, different deployment

Both tiers use identical domain modules, the same Drizzle-backed data layer, the same event bus, and the same automation engine. Workspaces created on Cloud can be migrated to Business OS and vice versa. Plugins built for one tier work on the other without modification.

Choose Cloud when speed and simplicity matter most. Choose Business OS when compliance, data sovereignty, or infrastructure control are non-negotiable. Both paths lead to the same operational OS.
