- **Managed databases**: **PostgreSQL**, **MySQL**, and **Redis** with **automated backups every 6 hours**.
- **Developer access and automation**: A **web console** plus **REST API and CLI** for provisioning VMs, managing databases, configuring firewalls, and querying billing; the platform also supports **GitHub auto-deploy** for apps (including Docker, Node, Python, and static sites).

Available on **Web (console)**, plus **REST API and CLI** (API docs: https://docs.orenacloud.com).

Target audience: **B2B teams** across startups, SMEs, and regulated enterprises running customer-facing apps, internal systems, databases, and storage-heavy workloads.
