Solutions
Self-hosted today. Managed cloud tomorrow.
The same product, two fulfillment models, one codebase. Add the SKU your largest customers ask for without forking your team.
Your biggest customers want self-hosted. Your business wants recurring revenue.
You can have both without two engineering tracks.
The deal you keep losing is the one where a regulated customer needs the software in their own environment — and building a self-hosted SKU by hand means a second codebase, a second release train, and a second on-call rotation. Akua makes self-hosted a fulfillment choice on the same package, so the second revenue stream costs you a target, not a team.
One package. Two fulfillments.
-
One package
The same versioned, signed release backs both the managed offering and the self-hosted one. You don’t maintain two builds.
-
Two fulfillments
Run it for the customer, or let the customer run it in their own cloud. The package doesn’t change between them.
-
Move between them
A customer can start managed and move to self-hosted, or the reverse, without a migration project. Same render path, different target.
Same product, either way.
The second revenue stream costs you a target, not a team — because almost nothing changes between the two.
- Codebase
- One. The same package backs the managed offering and the self-hosted one.
- Release train
- One. Bump the version once; every install gets the proposal.
- Operations
- The same primitives, whether you run it or the customer does.
- Switching
- Managed ↔ self-hosted is a target change, not a migration project.
One codebase.
Two revenue streams.
Sell managed and self-hosted from the same product — and let customers move between them.
