Have SaaS operations taken over

You build the product – ayedo takes over Kubernetes operations, releases, monitoring, and support. Onboarding takes days; your team stays on time-to-market and features instead of operations.

Production SaaS

Scalable tenants, stable releases, and observability for customer workloads.

SaaSProductionMulti-tenant

Demos & trials

Isolated demo environments per prospect – no manual ticket ping-pong.

Cloud-native SaaS on 15 Factors

Modern SaaS products follow the 15-Factor principles and run on Kubernetes – the de-facto standard for a sovereign software delivery lifecycle. ayedo operates exactly that target architecture.

Product as a 15-Factor app

Development standard

Stateless processes, config in the environment, API First, telemetry, and auth – your SaaS app stays portable across staging, demo, and production.

Kubernetes as the runtime

Industry standard

An open, community-backed standard with maximum flexibility and no vendor lock-in – Managed Kubernetes as the sovereign target for tenants, demos, and production.

You build it, we run it

Bring-your-own-App

Run line-of-business and SaaS products on Kubernetes – catalog or your own software, same operating standard.

Operating models

SaaS operations on the same models as Managed Kubernetes: ayedo Cloud, Dedicated, or BYOC/on-premises – scope by tenants, environments, and SLA.

Dedicated

Higher isolation · operated by ayedo
  • Dedicated platform cluster exclusively for your SaaS

  • Dedicated instances of identity, delivery, and observability

  • Custom SLAs, suitable for regulated environments

  • Optional multi-region and compliance packages

BYOC / On-Premises

Your infrastructure · our operations
  • On your cloud or in your data center

  • Data and compute remain under your control

  • Same SaaS operating standard, same expert team

  • For security, exit, and sovereignty requirements

What you get

An operations platform for SaaS, demos, tenants, and releases – not empty VMs.

Support

24/7 incident response for platform and apps – Support.

Frequently asked questions

SaaS operations, tenants, demos, and compliance.

What is SaaS hosting at ayedo?

SaaS hosting is the complete package for software vendors: Kubernetes platform, App Hosting for your product, tenant logic, demo environments, Observability, and 24/7 support – made in Germany.

When does outsourcing SaaS operations pay off?

When time-to-market, compliance (GDPR, DORA, NIS2), or parallel demos matter more than building an in-house platform team. Typically once VPS or single VMs hit their limits.

What does Managed Kubernetes for our SaaS cost?

Clusters from about €299.95/month, apps depending on complexity – full SaaS packages are custom. Compare operating models: Managed vs. self-managed and vs. classic hosting.

Can we automate demo environments per prospect?

Yes – with GitOps (Argo CD), namespaces, and optional automatic shutdown. Article: Scaling live demos.

Is the setup suitable for DORA and NIS2?

Certified operating processes and EU hosting – see DORA SaaS operations and NIS2 cloud operations.

US hyperscaler or EU platform?

For many B2B customers, EU operations without US jurisdiction are decisive – sovereign cloud and hyperscaler comparison.
