Development Environments on Demand
Deploy development environments immediately. Zero troubleshooting. Faster build times. Protect your source code.
Development Environments on Demand
Deploy development environments immediately. Zero troubleshooting. Faster build times. Protect your source code.
Get rid of bottlenecks
Provide centrally managed development environments which developers can configure and set up individually in self-service.
- Onboard new developers faster
- Reduce waiting time for builds
- No need for powerful laptops
Increase software quality
Run several CDEs in parallel and immediately use a development environment similar to the production environment.
- Operate the software to be developed in the CDE
- More time for the implementation of new features
- Less time spent on bug fixing
Minimise security risks
Air gap the development environment so that the source code is not on the developer’s laptop and test data is protected. Access to CDEs can be removed immediately and at any time.
- Ensure that former employees do not take company IP with them
- Zero risk of data abuse if the end device is lost or stolen
- No incentive for data misuse

How it works - At a glance
DevOps centrally manages the CDEs and defines the configuration options. Using a self-service portal, developers create CDEs on the basis of available configuration options, work with them and remove them again.
DevStack Self-Service-Portal
Manage Your CDEs
Manage CDEs independently as a developer. Specify which configurations are possible as an administrator.
- Customised CDEs for each software version
- Ready-to-use virtual machines
- Deploy, stop and delete CDEs
Uptime management
Specify a time interval when CDEs should be in operation to automatically shut them down.
- Full control over the availability of the CDEs
- Reduce infrastructure cost
DevStack CLI
- SSH connection to the CDE and automatic port forwarding
- Local synchronization of the source code
- Access and work with logs

Benefits
Discover how our solutions empower your team, streamline workflows, and drive success.
Solve scaling problems
Growth often leads to an increase in complexity. DevStack grows with you. Onboard new developers in seconds. Change development environments for an entire department with just a few clicks.
Increase productivity
CDEs are available on demand not only for major versions, but also for specific commit hashes of individual branches. Developers can run several of them in parallel. This makes working in different branches child’s play.
Improve developer experience
No more troubleshooting the local development environment. Automatically create development environments, deploy with a click and start coding in seconds. Spend less time on builds.

Frequently Asked Questions
DevStack is a platform for cloud development environments (CDEs). DevStack lets you deploy complete development environments from centralized templates. With DevStack developers don’t have to spend time with dependency management and troubleshooting of their local development environments.
Moreover, it can keep the source code safe on a remote machine instead of a local device, making loss or theft less of a security risk.
Our aim is to provide CDEs that are fully equivalent to local development environments. The central aspect here is the possibility to use any local editor, local or web IDE and to enable integration via several ways: via a mounted file share with sources for local editors / IDEs or via ssh for web / remote IDEs. Build of not yet committed intermediate states, reuse of already existing local build tools (e.g. code not minimised) and comfortable inspection of logs complete the picture. The particular strength lies in the comprehensive automation and integration functionality available in the CDEs.
Important differences: DevStack can be used with any local editor. Through our “Engine” product, Cloudomation has an automation and integration tool to quickly connect the RDEs with third-party systems and tools (independent of the provider) such as CI/CD pipelines. No Kubernetes is required. Working with uncommitted code is possible. On-premise hosting is possible. This comparison table provides an initial overview of the most important functional differences.
DevStack support all IDEs in its default mode. This means you can continue using your favourite editors. If DevStack is configured for maximum security, an SSH capable IDE is needed.This comparison table provides an initial overview of the most important functional differences.
DevStack helps developers concentrate on the important things. If you’re part of a developer team and you spend considerable time with waiting for builds to finish, troubleshooting your local development tools, or simply your laptop is overheating from the compute needed, you can benefit from DevStack.
Yes. DevStack is based on the Cloudomation Engine automation platform, which automates the deployment of your software into the CDEs. This deployment automation can also be used to deploy e.g. demo and test environments or other instances of your software, and can even be used to automate release into production.
Engine is an automation and integration tool. DevStack is a platform for cloud development environments. Engine can be used as a stand-alone product for end-to-end process automation. Engine is a part of the DevStack platform and handles the automated deployment of remote development environments and template configuration. In addition to Engine, DevStack includes templates for development environments as well as a self-service portal through which developers can deploy and manage development environments.
