Odoo Enterprise applications can be hosted on 3 different platforms: Odoo Online, Odoo.SH (dedicated cloud), or on-premises using their own infrastructure.

Odoo SH is a cloud hosting platform offered by Odoo that allows companies to use ERP software without having to worry about server infrastructure, facilities, or technical maintenance. Instead of installing it on their own servers, customers can subscribe to Odoo SH and have their Odoo instance hosted on the servers of Odoo S.A.

We will look at some details of what this platform encompasses to consider the benefits of this Odoo Enterprise version.

Features and advantages of Odoo SH include:

Scalability: Odoo SH can adapt to the changing needs of a company, allowing resources to be increased or decreased according to its growth.

Automatic updates: Odoo SH takes care of keeping the software updated with the latest versions and security patches.

Backups and recovery: The service performs regular backups of data and offers recovery options in case of issues.

Security: Odoo SH implements security measures to protect user data and privacy.

Technical support: Customers using Odoo SH generally receive technical support from Odoo S.A. to resolve issues and answer questions related to the operation of the platform.

Odoo SH is available in the Enterprise mode and its market inclusion is growing.

Next, we will mention reasons why everyone is migrating to this hybrid scheme. Don't get left behind in your company's digital transformation process and discover the advantages that Odoo SH has for you!

Quick start:You just need to log in with your Github account,choose between selecting an existing project or creating a new repository for your project, the version of Odoo you are using, and the hosting.

Integration with Github: This integration allows you to manage Odoo repositories from Github,as well as access the modification history in your Odoo repository. In this mode, it is required to have a Github account, as you will use it to log into Odoo SH.

User server management: Odoo SH provides the user with a dashboard within its interface to monitor information related to the project's servers. This information includes emails, platform, production, development, indicators on the availability and performance of your servers on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis.
In Odoo Online, the server is completely controlled by Odoo, while Odoo.sh provides server controls to the user.

Use of blocks within branches: The use of blocks allows you to have better organization of your repositories.A block is a database loaded within an Odoo server that runs on a specific revision of the project's repository in a contained environment in each branch.

Constant backups: Thanks to database backups, the risk of failures or errors is significantly reduced.This is because daily backups are monitored and replicated in multiple locations around the world. Additionally, data restoration can be done easily, quickly, and effectively. Backups are performed daily, weekly, and monthly. With Odoo SH, you can manage the daily backups of your production database from the backup menu.

Custom modules: The community in Odoo is very large.This means that you will find available developments from partners and users at the disposal of the rest of the community. If you want to use custom or community modules in Odoo, you can add them to your database. This is one of the unique features of Odoo SH.

Use of branches for project management: Odoo SH offers a complete view of the branches in your repository, providing tools to facilitate the implementation of new developments.This allows for secure integration, providing certain advantages over the SaaS and On-premise versions.
Each branch has its function in Odoo SH:

Production:
This is the branch that contains the code in which the production database runs. There can only be one production branch.

Staging:
The staging branches are intended to replicate the production database in a user-generated testing environment. This allows the same data from the production database to be used to test new configurations and information without compromising its integrity.

Development:
Development branches create new databases using demo data to run unit tests. The installed modules are those included in their branches (production and staging).

A brief summary... Odoo.sh is designed for custom Odoo deployments: you can easily install our certified applications as well as any third-party application available in the Odoo app store. Additionally, you will find built-in tools that will help you develop new applications and custom features.
