Ubicloud
The open-source alternative to AWS
Ubicloud is an open source cloud platform that provides infrastructure-as-a-service features on bare metal providers such as Hetzner, Leaseweb, OVH, and AWS Bare Metal. It addresses the cost, lock-in, and complexity associated with closed-source public clouds, allowing users to either self-host the platform or use Ubicloud's managed service.
Core services include Elastic Compute for provisioning isolated VMs, Virtual Networking with IPv4/IPv6, firewall rules, and network load balancers, and Block Storage with encryption at rest. The platform also offers Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) for fine-grained permissions and Managed PostgreSQL with automatic backups, point-in-time restore, and high availability. Additional capabilities include a GitHub Actions integration for isolated CI runners and support for Kubernetes.
Ubicloud is designed for startups and enterprises seeking an open, portable alternative to major cloud vendors. It is available as a self-hosted open source deployment or as a managed service, with a pricing page and documentation available for further details on packaging.
