CoCalc Cloud 2.11.4#

Note

These pages were created for version 2.11.4-c2a7f2a as of Nov 14, 2023.

Welcome to CoCalc Cloud!#

CoCalc Cloud is a simplified and streamlined on-premises variant of CoCalc, which you can install on your own cluster. It offers the same powerful features as the online version and inherits the same reliable, salable performance our online platform is known for.

This version is designed specifically for companies and universities with their own computing infrastructure, providing scalability and full support for thousands of users. CoCalc Cloud covers additional privacy requirements and provides complete infrastructure control, with the ability to customize the platform to meet your specific needs.

We are proud to have developed CoCalc Cloud using the knowledge we’ve gained from running cocalc.com on Kubernetes since 2014.
