OVHcloud, Managed From an EU-Operated Control Plane
Sencai connects to your existing OVHcloud account without moving anything — your contract and billing relationship with OVHcloud stay exactly where they are. That matters if OVHcloud is your provider of record for a public-sector tender or a data-residency requirement: nothing about that relationship changes. From there, OVHcloud sits in the same organisation as Hetzner, AWS, Azure, and the rest of your infrastructure — one inventory, one provisioning workflow, one audit trail, one cost view.
Bring your own OVHcloud account — or let Sencai carry it
Connect an existing OVHcloud account and nothing moves. Your contract, your billing, your relationship with OVHcloud stays exactly as it is — Sencai stores the connection credentials encrypted at rest, and you can revoke access at OVHcloud's end at any time. That matters if you picked OVHcloud specifically to keep infrastructure inside the EU, or to satisfy a public-sector procurement requirement: BYOC is the default path, and Sencai layers control on top without becoming a party to the contract. If you'd rather not hold a direct OVHcloud contract, Sencai — itself a Czech company operating under EU law — can provision and bill capacity under its own account instead. You get one invoice covering every provider you use, priced at OVHcloud's own cost plus a 2% margin shown as a separate line. The two models aren't exclusive: an organisation can start on BYOC and add managed capacity later, or the other way round, without re-platforming anything.
See what's already running on OVHcloud, before you touch anything
The moment an OVHcloud account is connected, Sencai inventories what's already running against it — instances, networks, storage, DNS records — without requiring anything to move or be re-provisioned first. That's common ground for OVHcloud accounts built up piecemeal by a small team over a few years: dedicated servers ordered for one project, Public Cloud instances spun up for another, a DNS zone nobody quite remembers registering. You get a full picture of your existing OVHcloud footprint next to every other provider in the same organisation (how inventory works), in one list instead of a separate browser tab per cloud. Nothing is brought under active management automatically. Each discovered resource stays exactly as it is until you opt it in, one at a time or in bulk. That matters if you're consolidating visibility across accounts you didn't all set up yourself: see everything first, then decide what Sencai should actually manage.
Provision OVHcloud the same way you provision everything else
Provisioning, starting, stopping, resizing, and destroying OVHcloud instances works the same way it does for every other connected provider — one workflow, not a different console habit per cloud. That consistency is the point: a runbook written once doesn't need an OVHcloud-specific variant. Any Linux server running on OVHcloud, Public Cloud instance or dedicated server, can run Sencai's fleet agent for monitoring, patching, software inventory, and approval-gated runbook automation. An incident-response procedure written down once runs identically whether the box it's fixing sits on OVHcloud, another connected cloud, or your own rack. Run Kubernetes on OVHcloud too, and a separate fleet agent handles in-cluster inventory and management the same way.
One audit trail, one cost view, across OVHcloud and everything else
Every action Sencai takes against your OVHcloud account — a provision, a resize, a destroy, an agent-run remediation — lands in an append-only, hash-chained audit log. Tamper with an entry and the chain breaks, so it's detectable, not just discouraged. For a public-sector team answering to NIS2, or an SMB fielding its first security questionnaire, "who changed this, and when" becomes a query you run in seconds, not a support ticket and a week of waiting. Cost sits next to it, not in a separate tool. Sencai tracks spend and flags anomalies across OVHcloud and every other connected provider in one FinOps view, so a runaway instance or an unexpected resize shows up where you're already looking — not buried in next month's invoice from a provider you may not check daily.
Frequently asked
Does Sencai migrate my OVHcloud resources, or take over the account?
No. Sencai connects to your existing OVHcloud account by BYOC — nothing migrates, and your contract and billing relationship with OVHcloud stay exactly as they are. You can revoke Sencai's access at OVHcloud's end at any time. If you'd rather not hold the contract directly, Sencai can provision and bill capacity for you instead, at OVHcloud's cost plus a 2% margin.
Can I run OVHcloud alongside AWS, Azure, or Hetzner in one organisation?
Yes — that's the point. Connect OVHcloud plus any of the other ten supported providers to a single Sencai organisation, and inventory, provisioning, the fleet agent, the audit trail, and cost visibility all work across them from one place, with the same workflow regardless of which provider a given resource sits on.
What happens to OVHcloud resources I already have when I connect an account?
Sencai discovers them immediately — instances, networks, storage, DNS records — and shows you what's there. Nothing is brought under active management automatically; each resource stays untouched until you opt it in, resource by resource, so you see your full OVHcloud footprint before deciding what Sencai should actually control.
Does this fit a data-sovereignty or public-sector requirement?
OVHcloud is a French, EU-run provider, and Sencai operates as a Czech company under EU law — neither piece of the stack sits outside the EU by default. Sencai isn't ISO 27001 or SOC 2 certified and says so directly, but hands over what a security review actually asks for: audit-trail export, records of processing, a published sub-processor register, a data-residency statement, and a published Data Processing Agreement. See regulated industries and government.
How quickly can I connect OVHcloud and see results?
Connecting an account takes minutes, and inventory populates immediately — no migration step in between. Most teams complete their first deploy in under 30 minutes. There's a free plan (1 user, 1 organisation, 5 managed resources, no card required) and a 14-day full-featured trial for anything larger, both self-serve with no sales call.
