Deploy
Air-gapped Deployment
Run ObjectOS without access to the public internet.
Air-gapped Deployment
Air-gapped deployment is for customer networks where ObjectOS cannot call a hosted control plane or public package registries at runtime.
What to ship
An offline release bundle should contain:
| Item | Purpose |
|---|---|
| ObjectOS container image | Runtime binary and dependencies |
objectstack.json artifact | Immutable application definition |
| Database migration/initialization guidance | Customer business database setup |
| Environment template | Required secrets and runtime variables |
| Operations checklist | Upgrade, rollback, backup, and diagnostics |
Runtime mode
Use file-backed mode:
OS_ARTIFACT_FILE=/artifacts/objectstack.jsonObjectOS resolves every request to the packaged project and loads the artifact from disk.
Network expectations
ObjectOS does not need public internet access in this mode. Customer network rules should allow only:
- inbound HTTP/HTTPS from the approved ingress or load balancer;
- outbound database traffic to the customer-managed business database;
- outbound traffic to explicitly configured integrations such as SMTP, object storage, webhook targets, or identity providers.
Authentication
If the customer uses OIDC/SSO, the identity provider must be reachable from the air-gapped network. If not, use local email/password auth or an identity provider hosted inside the same network.
Upgrade process
Treat artifacts as immutable:
- Import the new ObjectOS image.
- Place the new artifact beside the previous artifact.
- Update the mount or environment variable to point at the new artifact.
- Restart ObjectOS.
- Roll back by restoring the previous image tag or artifact path.
