Reference architectures

GlobalStacks provides the runtime, networking, and sandbox substrate. The same primitives can support several platform patterns.

Internal developer platform

Teams expose a product user interface (UI) for projects, environments, services, secrets, and deployments. GlobalStacks handles placement, runtime, network policy, port forwarding, volumes, and audit.

Preview environments

Each pull request or branch can create one or more sandboxes, attach them to a runtime network, publish internal aliases, and expose selected endpoints with policy-controlled ingress.

Hosted app platform

A platform team can add Git integration, builds, release promotion, rollback, domains, Transport Layer Security (TLS), and Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) routing on top of GlobalStacks sandboxes and managed capacity.

Continuous Integration (CI) runner fleet

GlobalStacks can provide isolated job sandboxes, private dependency networks, controlled egress, and provider-backed capacity pools for burst capacity.

Secure remote development

Developers can work in isolated sandboxes with access to approved networks and volumes, while operators keep host access, network policy, and runtime isolation under control.

Customer-hosted platform

Software vendors can ship a control plane experience that uses GlobalStacks agents inside customer infrastructure. The vendor owns the app workflow, while GlobalStacks provides runtime, networking, and sandbox enforcement.
