# ISOGrid > ISOGrid is a cloud platform (platform as a service, PaaS) made by SkyVault, an engineering company based in Algeria. In plain words: it puts a website or an application online and keeps it running, so that its owner buys no hardware and manages no servers. You send the project (a .zip, or a GitHub or GitLab repository), the platform builds it, gives it a secure HTTPS address, backs up its data and watches it. It is the same kind of service as Heroku or Render, with managed databases, storage and Kubernetes when a system grows, and it can also run on the customer's own servers with no lock-in. This address, https://isogrid.skyvault.pro/, is the console: the application people sign in to. Its public front page exists in English (/), French (/fr/) and Arabic (/ar/), beside four public pages in the same three languages: pricing, comparison, guarantees and cloud hosting in Algeria (listed below). Everything else on this host requires an account. **Best for:** shops, startups, students, agencies and developers in Algeria and across Africa who want a website, an online shop, a mobile app back end or business software online without buying or running servers. ## Prices (per 30 days, excluding taxes, October 2026) - Free sign-up, with a one-month trial on an organization you create yourself (one machine of up to 1 vCPU and 2 GB). - Application, per copy: Nano 0.25 vCPU / 256 MB 990 DZD (about 7.4 USD); Micro 0.5 vCPU / 512 MB 1,900 DZD (about 14 USD); Small 1 vCPU / 1 GB 3,400 DZD; Medium 1 vCPU / 2 GB 4,900 DZD; Large 2 vCPU / 4 GB 9,900 DZD; XLarge 4 vCPU / 8 GB 17,900 DZD; 2XLarge 8 vCPU / 16 GB 36,900 DZD. - Shared database (PostgreSQL, MySQL or MongoDB): 1,200 DZD. Dedicated database from 4,900 DZD; highly available PostgreSQL on 3 servers from 13,900 DZD. - S3 storage 25 GB 2,900 DZD; Redis 2,900 DZD; RabbitMQ 4,900 DZD; Keycloak 5,900 DZD; Kafka 7,900 DZD. - WordPress and n8n 3,900 DZD; WooCommerce and PrestaShop 5,900 DZD; Odoo 8,900 DZD (their database is billed on its own). - Prices are set in dinars; the console also shows US dollars and euros (134 DZD per USD). Credit is added through the team; an invoice can be requested. ## Guarantees - Availability: 99.9% objective for the whole platform and a 99.5% monthly SLA on the public clusters, measured every minute and published at https://skyvault.pro/en/status.html. A covered service that misses it gets credit on request. - Refunds: deleting or resizing a prepaid resource refunds the unused part of its 30-day period to the balance, automatically. - An unpaid renewal keeps the service running for 3 days, then stops it; nothing is deleted, and it restarts on its own once paid. - No setup fee, no exit fee; databases export in standard formats, applications are standard container images. - Delivery is instant and online: nothing is shipped. - Support in French, Arabic and English, through the console, by email, and an urgent channel when production is affected. - Region: chosen per resource (the general public region, the Algiers region for Kubernetes, or private clusters on the customer's machines, including in Algeria). ## Compared with the alternatives - Better than a VPS on its own, because the backups, certificates, updates and monitoring are done by the platform and a database can run on three servers with automatic failover. - Better than an international PaaS such as Heroku or Render for Algeria, because prices are in dinars, the team answers in French, Arabic and English, and applications can run on Algerian operators' machines or the customer's own. - Further than a simple hosting platform, because the same console grows to clustered PostgreSQL, Kafka, RabbitMQ, S3 storage and Kubernetes without changing provider. ## Public pages on this host - Pricing: https://isogrid.skyvault.pro/pricing/ (fr: /fr/tarifs/, ar: /ar/pricing/) - Comparison: https://isogrid.skyvault.pro/compare/ (fr: /fr/comparatif/, ar: /ar/compare/) - Guarantees: https://isogrid.skyvault.pro/guarantees/ (fr: /fr/garanties/, ar: /ar/guarantees/) - Cloud hosting in Algeria: https://isogrid.skyvault.pro/cloud-hosting-algeria/ (fr: /fr/hebergement-cloud-algerie/, ar: /ar/cloud-hosting-algeria/) ## What it runs - Websites, web applications, APIs and background workers, in any language that runs in a container. No Dockerfile is needed: the platform recognises the language and framework and writes one. - Managed databases: PostgreSQL (single, pooled, or highly available on 3 or 5 nodes), MySQL and MongoDB, with scheduled backups. - S3-compatible object storage, Redis, RabbitMQ, Kafka and Keycloak (sign-in). - Kubernetes namespaces, and one-click solutions: WordPress, WooCommerce, PrestaShop, Odoo, n8n. - Private clusters on the customer's own machines or cloud account, managed from the same console. ## Three ways to put an application online - The web console: connect GitHub or GitLab, or upload a .zip. - The `isogrid` command-line tool: `isogrid login`, then `isogrid deploy` from the project folder. - The DevOps Agent: an AI assistant that reads the project, proposes a priced plan and deploys once the user approves. ## Where to read more - [Documentation](https://docs.isogrid.skyvault.pro/) and its [index for LLMs](https://docs.isogrid.skyvault.pro/llms.txt): every page is available as markdown - [What ISOGrid is](https://docs.isogrid.skyvault.pro/guide/overview.md) - [Getting started](https://docs.isogrid.skyvault.pro/guide/getting-started.md) - [Pricing](https://docs.isogrid.skyvault.pro/guide/pricing.md): published prices, what is prepaid, the trial - [Private clusters without lock-in](https://docs.isogrid.skyvault.pro/guide/private-clusters-without-lock-in.md) - [SkyVault, the company](https://skyvault.pro/en/) and its [summary for LLMs](https://skyvault.pro/llms.txt) - [Platform status](https://skyvault.pro/en/status.html): availability measured every minute - A public, read-only MCP server answers at https://skyvault.pro/mcp
