📌 Provide isolated databases for apps with Service Bindings.

OpenRun is an open-source, self-hosted GitOps platform for deploying web apps to Docker, Podman or Kubernetes. These pages compare OpenRun with other approaches to deploying web apps and internal tools.

The short version: OpenRun differs from most alternatives in providing true GitOps (apps are created and configured through Git, not just updated when code changes), SSO and RBAC for every deployed app, scale-to-zero for idle apps and a single declarative config that works on a single server with Docker or Podman and on Kubernetes. OpenRun does not deploy Docker Compose stacks; apps connect to externally managed databases through service bindings.
