Why DevOps Teams Choose OMC Cloud

DevOps workflows need infrastructure that can be provisioned and destroyed programmatically, billed by the hour for short-lived environments, and replicated identically across dev, staging, and production. Manual server setup is the enemy of automation.

OMC Cloud provides full REST API access for programmatic provisioning, Docker-ready VPS with pre-installed runtimes, hourly billing for ephemeral environments, and server snapshots for pre-deployment safety nets. Run Jenkins, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions runners, ArgoCD, or any CI/CD tool with full root access.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I run GitHub Actions self-hosted runners?+

Yes. Install the GitHub Actions runner agent on any OMC Cloud VPS. Faster builds on dedicated hardware vs GitHub's shared runners.

Is Docker pre-installed?+

Yes. Every Linux VPS includes Docker Engine and Docker Compose. Start running containers immediately after deployment.

Can I pay hourly for test environments?+

Yes. Hourly billing is available on all plans. Spin up a staging environment for a few hours, destroy it, pay only for the time used.

How do I clone production to staging?+

Use the server snapshot API to capture production state, then deploy it as a new staging server. Or use Docker images for application-level cloning.

Can I run Terraform against OMC Cloud?+

Yes. Our REST API supports programmatic server management. Terraform providers and Pulumi plugins are available.

How fast are builds on dedicated hardware?+

Significantly faster than shared CI/CD runners. Dedicated NVMe storage and CPU mean no queue waiting and no noisy neighbor slowdowns.

Can I run a private Docker registry?+

Yes. Install Docker Registry, Harbor, or GitLab Container Registry on your VPS with NVMe storage for fast image pulls.

What about secrets management?+

Full root access means install HashiCorp Vault, SOPS, or any secrets manager. Your secrets stay on your infrastructure.
