What are Codesphere workspaces

Your applications live inside workspaces, they’re lightweight like containers with features suited for VM workloads.
Compared to VMs they are rootless and kept up to date by us providing major security advantages.

Compute units

  • Distributed across multiple servers (nodes)
  • Number of CPUs / RAM size adjustable
  • GPU’s are supported as well

Network filesystem

  • Distributed across multiple servers
  • Optimized for fast “connecting”
  • Isolated access per workspace

Codesphere's core technology

feature icon

Patented deploy tech

  • Our optimized deployment technology is based on pooled resources and smarter file system mounting
feature icon

Off-when-unused

  • Automatically free unused resources to save on dev and occasional apps
  • Supports stateful and complex workloads
  • Near-instant restarts for fast access

Landscape deployments

  • Our simplified version of helm
  • Configure & run multiple independently scaling services for your application
  • Distributed compute for mono repository services

Scaling

  • For horizontal scaling, replicas can be added via the UI or API for autoscaling
  • Vertical scaling allows increasing resources in seconds
“Big fan of Codesphere. Been using their web IDE in the early days, and excited about how simple deploying and testing scalable apps is via their solution!”

Challenging the status quo

Improved development processes

Self-service deployments and delivery targets without any prior k8s know-how with a single source of truth in git combined with better collaboration within and across teams.

Developer self service

Developers own and understand the entire process without any k8s know how requirements. The process is standardized according to opinionated best practices, traceable via git and well integrated into existing workflows.

Collaboration & reviews

Every feature branch and master gets automatically deployed from git (GitHub, Gitlab, Bitbucket & others) and available via the collaborative web IDE. This reduces the time developers wait for local to be checked out and built and facilitates true shift left.

Integrated without any code changes

Monitoring & observability

Zero setup and fully integrated without any code changes. Developers are exposed to their applications performance early on in the process and create all the artifacts needed for monitoring later.

Resource & Uptime monitoring

Know how much CPU, Memory and storage you use and how the uptime of your application has been evolving.

Application performance monitoring

Monitor requests (in/out/intra tracing), explore logs to find errors and keep an eye on your uptime.

FinOps monitoring

Track usage and explore opportunities for increasing efficiency.

Standardized across any infra

Managed services

We build databases, managed storage, and “bring your own Docker/Helm” on open-source frameworks and abstraction layers so our managed services work on any underlying infrastructure. These services are tightly integrated across the platform, letting your developers stay focused on building.

“The ease of use & flexibility of Codesphere is market leading; anyone can deploy their first application within minutes.”

Patrick Kürzer

Head of Software Engineering @ Eurotours

Supported infrastructure

Codesphere runs anywhere—on managed Kubernetes clusters (like OpenShift or AKS), directly on VMs (in the cloud or on-prem hypervisors), or even on bare metal.

We also support air-gapped and hybrid setups, with flexible management options ranging from fully self-managed to semi- or fully managed instances.

FAQ

The most frequently asked questions

We decouple compute from runtime, standardize network storage remove the complexity introduced with Docker - which enables us to introduce a new paradigm for deployments.

Yes most definitely! We have large enterprises using Codesphere (both on prem & as PaaS) for their productive workloads. There is even companies running production AI workloads on basis of Codesphere workspaces.

Codesphere’s main base of operations is in Karlsruhe, Germany. There are also locations and registered address in the US, and in Munich.

Codesphere can be installed on air-gapped instances and is used by banks, public authorities and other restricted verticals. There the upside from our development process improvements can be even more substantial.

Codesphere has a patented deployment algorithm. What we can share about it the tech and how it works is compiled here.
