Cloud that keeps receipts.
An open, portable cloud. Launch VMs, networks, and managed services with budgets on rails and a control plane you can self-host.
Built for the tools you already use
LayerRail cloud platform
A smarter approach to cloud operations.
Run compute, networking, and managed services from a single control plane for resources and cost.
Cloud sprawl scatters the story of your infrastructure. Who created a resource, where it runs, what it costs, which project owns it — LayerRail keeps the answers next to the resources themselves.
One console. Full context.
Get started
in minutes.
Go from boot image to running VM in minutes. Pick a region, attach a network, and ship. One auditable, self-hostable console brings compute, networking, Postgres, and Kubernetes together.
Usage and pricing records live beside each resource, so budgets never drift quietly. Provision from the console, CLI, or API — every resource carries its owner, region, and cost context.
Resource records & budget rails
Infrastructure that stays explainable.
Owners, budgets, and records travel with every resource. See what is running, where it belongs, and what it costs without rebuilding the story from disconnected tools.
On the roadmapDeployment passports, reporting-ready exports for finance and compliance, and self-serve budget reports are coming soon.
Build, deploy, connect
Launch in minutes.
Operate with confidence.
Infrastructure that keeps its receipts. Create, launch, connect, manage, and audit your cloud from one place.
Regions and standard images
Pick a region and boot image
Choose a region in the US, UK, or South Africa and an Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, or Rocky Linux image. LayerRail provisions the rest.
Solutions
What happens when your
cloud stays on rails?
Move faster with a platform that keeps infrastructure, access, and cost context together. Start small, grow across regions, and operate with the controls your team needs.
Launch in minutes. Operate with confidence.
Provision from the console, CLI, or API. Every resource carries its project, region, and cost context, so your team spends less time piecing infrastructure together.
One platform for modern infrastructure.
Compute, managed services, and developer tooling share the same operational foundation. Private networking and project access keep your resources connected and protected.
Compute & managed infrastructure
Provision the building blocks of your cloud from one project-centered console. Resources, access, and pricing records stay together as you grow.
Explore productsNetworking & developer services
Connect services, secure access, and bring AI workloads and build pipelines into the same operational context.
Explore productsPortable by design
Built to work with
your ecosystem.
Use the technologies you already know. Standard operating system images, managed Postgres, Kubernetes, and an open control plane let you bring your workflows with you.
Built for production
Connect securely.
Operate confidently.
High availability. Managed services run on monitored, VM-backed infrastructure with automatic recovery workflows when something fails.
Proactive protection. Revoke access instantly, rotate tokens, and lock down networks the moment something looks wrong. Scope access with IAM and revocable tokens.
Visibility from day one
Stay in sync with your
infrastructure in real time.
Every resource is tracked. Every cost is visible.
Automatic metrics and health collection.
CPU, memory, disk, and service health are captured for VMs and managed services without extra wiring.
Spot spikes and unusual spend.
Usage records sit next to resources, so anomalies in load or cost surface long before the invoice does.
Debug and explore in the console.
Filter by project, region, owner, and state to understand what is running and why.
Query via API and CLI.
Pull resource and usage records into your own reporting. Everything in the console is scriptable.
Multi-region footprint
Run workloads across regions with the same console and resource records everywhere.
Elastic capacity
Add and resize instances as demand grows.
Predictable pricing
Transparent hourly rates, with root storage and public IPv4 included on VMs.
Built-in protection
IAM, firewalls, and instant revocation ship with every project.
