Federated Enterprise is a software platform that runs on virtual machines you provision at your cloud provider of choice. You bring the compute infrastructure; Federated supplies CoreServer — a custom operating system — and Cores — bundles of open source business software that run on top of it.
A Core is a bundle of open source apps (such as Nextcloud, Gitea, and Vaultwarden) built to work together out of the box, running on CoreServer on your own VM. Cores are tied to your account and backed by a set of domains that route traffic to your environment. Each Core can also be equipped with optional add-on services like monitoring and backups.
What You Get
- CoreServer and your chosen Core software bundle installed on your own VMs, managed through the Federated platform
- At least three domains — either free Federated-managed domains, or custom domains you purchase and register through the platform
- An SSH key pair automatically generated at checkout, used by the Provisioner to configure your Cores
- A billing structure based on your chosen plan tier, with transparent per-Core pricing
- A team workspace where you can invite colleagues at different permission levels
How the Platform Is Organized
Your account is the top-level container for everything: your Cores, domains, users, and billing. One person signs up as the Owner and completes checkout; from there, additional team members can be invited. All Cores and domains belong to the account, not individual users.
