Platform / Run

One platform.
Every site you run.

Managed hosting, structured content, many sites and many languages. Every customer runs on an isolated instance of their own.

Illustrative recreation of Xia Studio with a fictional business.

What stands out

Production-grade
from day one.

Managed cloud infrastructure and application services give your team a foundation to operate and extend.

Isolated instance per customer

Each customer runs in its own isolated environment rather than sharing one with others.

Performance and security isolation by design.

Multiple websites from one platform

Run several websites or brands from one account, each on its own domain.

Manage a portfolio of sites from one place.

Translation status tracking

Edit translations side by side with the original, and see which are complete and which went stale when the original changed.

Know exactly which pages need re-translating.

Fast setup from templates

New sites are created in minutes by cloning a ready-made template instance.

A working environment on day one.
