Apps Store

The App Store is the central place to download and install apps. It is open to anyone to upload their own apps.

Networking

When an app is installed, Ocelot-Cloud acts as a network proxy so that users can immediately access the app through a subdomain.

Updates

Download and install the latest version of an app from the App Store.

Backups

Create local and remote backups of your apps via SSH and restore them when needed.

Certificates

Ocelot-Cloud automatically manages wildcard certificates that encrypt the network data transmitted between the user’s device and the app.

Users

Create user accounts and assign them to other people to grant them access to the apps.

OIDC Server

Without single sign-on, users would need separate accounts for each app. Ocelot-Cloud solves this problem by providing an integrated OIDC server. Users can log in once with their Ocelot-Cloud account to access all apps and the platform itself.

Groups

Groups provide granular access control. Users are assigned to groups, and groups are granted access to apps. This makes managing permissions easier, especially in larger organizations.

Public Instance

This feature set supports the foundation of public clouds. Apps can be made public, allowing anonymous users to access them without logging in to the Ocelot-Cloud. This is ideal for blogs, forums or public websites. In addition, self-registration can be enabled, allowing users to create their own local Ocelot-Cloud accounts to access the apps.

Auto Setup

To make the deployment of Ocelot-Cloud even easier, we offer premium users the option to get a domain and a corresponding wildcard certificate without any manual intervention.

Monitoring

Ocelot-Cloud includes infrastructure monitoring for metrics such as CPU, memory, disk usage and network traffic. In addition, Ocelot-Cloud provides a GUI that allows visualization and analysis of these metrics.

Log Collection

Logs are critical but often buried in containers. Ocelot-Cloud aggregates these logs centrally and provides tools to view and analyze them.

Notifications

Using collected metrics and logs, Ocelot-Cloud sends alerts to administrators about critical events such as high CPU load, low disk space, or failed backups.
