Today's enterprise technology landscape is clear: 94% of businesses have embraced cloud services, and by 2025, over 50% of enterprise IT spending will shift to the cloud. For successful Odoo implementation, one critical decision is choosing the right hosting platform.
There are many ways to host Odoo ERP, but one platform provides 100% dedicated cloud hosting with AI-powered performance, self-optimization, and adaptive security.
Welcome to PurpleCloud.
1. The Journey to PurpleCloud
Born from a Partner's Experience
Our 10 years of Odoo consulting taught us what teams struggle with: selecting hosting solutions and managing client infrastructure. Successful Odoo implementations demand expertise in the Odoo stack and deep knowledge of infrastructure, servers, and cloud services.
The core challenges are constant: balancing cost, scalability, and performance; managing technical complexity and customization, while ensuring robust security and trust.
We knew there had to be a better way for partners to deliver exceptional service without the infrastructure burden and headache.
Understanding the Partner's Dilemma
We also see that Odoo partners and business owners often find themselves at a crossroads, navigating the "Partner's Dilemma".
This difficult choice often leads to three primary pain points that undermine a project's success: the need for cost and performance balance, managing technical complexity, and ensuring data security.
Project and server teams usually end up in one or several of these situations:
- Struggling with inconsistent performance while using mutualized services or shared servers and environments.
- Dealing with complex Odoo infrastructure setups and maintenance that consume your team’s valuable time.
- Facing hidden costs that leave your clients unhappy with their hosting solution.
This realisation sparked our journey to build an affordable, self-service platform explicitly designed for the Odoo ecosystem.
PurpleCloud was created to give Odoo partners and technical teams the control, dedicated performance, and intelligent automation you need to succeed, all with a cost-effective model that supports implementations of all sizes.
For business owners, PurpleCloud is a cloud hosting solution that eases their initial concerns about exceptional performance, predictable cost, security, and scalability throughout their ERP journey.
2. Beyond the Dilemma: The Real-World Challenges That Limit Your Growth
Let’s break down the three key challenges that we face when choosing the right Odoo cloud hosting solutions:
1. Balancing cost, scalability, and performance
This challenge significantly occurs in the smallest to mid-sized businesses while they consider a cloud hosting solution, due to their budget and low demand for system infrastructure in the early stage. Additionally, scalability is not their current priority.
However, in the long run, and as their business grows, the need for more resources clashes with their previous budget constraints, often leading to performance bottlenecks due to shared servers, slow processing times, and an underwhelming user experience.
2. Managing technical complexity and customization
Infrastructure and server expertise are essential for successful Odoo implementation. While a specialized in-house server team can ease the setup burden, teams without this expertise often find themselves shifting focus away from valuable consulting tasks.
Moreover, larger corporations often require customizations, such as custom modules or third-party integrations, which can lead to manual implementations and rapidly increasing costs.
3. Ensuring Data Security, Compliance, and Trust:
A client's confidence is directly tied to the security of their data, and a system with known security vulnerabilities erodes that trust. The challenge is choosing a hosting provider that aligns with a client's industry-specific standards ”out of the box” while providing robust security measures like antivirus, firewalls, encryption, and even PenTesting.
3. So, what makes PurpleCloud different?
PurpleCloud was engineered from the ground up to solve these exact problems for partners and the concerns of business owners. We’re not just another hosting platform; we're an AI-powered co-pilot that empowers your team and elevates your service.
We eliminate the "Partner's Dilemma" by delivering full control and intelligent automation.
I. Dedicated Performance Infrastructure
With over 46 active data centre regions worldwide, you can deploy Odoo in any of our locations and achieve minimal latency. Every Odoo instance is dedicated, with its own VM, disk, CPU, RAM, and public IP, allowing you to run Odoo standard in minutes and eliminate the "noisy neighbor" effect with guaranteed resource allocation.
We provide dedicated development, staging, and production environments to ensure a seamless and robust workflow. These environments are kept separate and do not share the same resources.
II. Partner-Centric Technical Control
We understand the "Automation Paradox": automation is essential, but human oversight is still needed for the best results. With PurpleCloud, your technical team has full technical access and control while automation handles heavy tasks.
- Full SSH Access: Gain direct server management with complete control over users and configurations, allowing you to handle complex technical tasks easily and keep track of all activities with dedicated audit logs.
- Seamless Git Integration: Connect your GitHub or GitLab repositories for smoother development and automated deployment pipelines.
- CI/CD Integration: Implement automated deployment pipelines using GitLab for more efficient development workflows. If you are enforcing high standards of compliance, where DevOps Teams or even engineers are not allowed to access data, CI/CD automation allows them to leverage code upgrades without ever needing infrastructure access.
In addition, PurpleCloud supports both Odoo Community and Enterprise editions (v13-18), making it easier than ever to deliver effective cloud hosting solutions to your clients.
III. Enterprise-grade security & automation
Deploy with confidence. Focus on your Odoo implementation while our enterprise-grade security and automation eliminate infrastructure headaches:
- Cloudflare Pro WAF protection, SSL, and CDN: Guarantee your security with enterprise-level features and enjoy a 99.99% uptime guarantee. Leverage the CDN to accelerate content delivery worldwide and increase performance.
- Advanced DDoS Protection: Strengthen the safety of your mission-critical applications with robust measures designed to safeguard against potential threats.
- Automated Backups: Leverage secure S3 storage, which offers retention policies of 7 days, 4 weeks, and 3 months. This ensures your data is well-protected without being charged any disk usage or backup storage fees.
- 24/7 Monitoring: Utilize real-time oversight for Odoo Workers, PostgreSQL, disk usage, CPU, and RAM, providing peace of mind and proactive management.
- PostgreSQL Query Monitoring: Use a real-time query analyzer and filters to identify flows and requests costing performance overhead, slowness, or bottlenecks.
V. Brain AI: Intelligent Optimization
The future of Odoo hosting isn't about more server power. It's about intelligent optimisation through AI. Our proprietary Brain AI technology acts as an AI-powered expert and co-pilot, constantly monitoring, analyzing, and dynamically optimizing your Odoo environment.
It's the autopilot revolution for Odoo hosting. It automatically identifies and resolves performance bottlenecks before they impact your clients and makes adequate code improvement suggestions to help your teams write code. It is simply safer and runs faster. This reduces your workload and frees your team to focus on strategic consulting. Learn more about our PurpleCloud Brain project.
