# DBDock Cloud

> DBDock Cloud is the managed dashboard at dbdock.xyz — connections, encrypted backups, scheduling, storage, migrations, analytics, alerts, teams, and admin panels, with nothing to self-host.

DBDock Cloud is the hosted version of DBDock, at [dbdock.xyz](https://dbdock.xyz). It runs the same backup and migration engines as the [CLI](/cli/overview), but the scheduling, storage, and job execution are managed for you.

## Cloud vs. CLI

Both surfaces share the same engines and file formats. The difference is where the work runs and what's managed.

|               | DBDock Cloud                                | DBDock CLI                   |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------- |
| Where it runs | Hosted at dbdock.xyz                        | Your machine or CI           |
| Scheduling    | Managed — DBDock runs your jobs             | Your own cron / scheduler    |
| Storage       | Managed storage included, or bring your own | Bring your own               |
| Team access   | Shared workspaces                           | Per-machine                  |
| License       | Managed subscription                        | Open source (MIT)            |
| Best for      | Hands-off, always-on operations             | Local control, scripting, CI |

<Tip>
  You don't have to choose. [Cloud Sync](/cloud-sync/overview) links a local project to your dashboard so you get both — terminal control and a managed, always-on view.
