What Is an AI-Native Neocloud

An AI-Native Neocloud is a cloud platform designed from scratch for AI agents to operate, not just humans to navigate. It unifies serverless Postgres, compute, and AI inference under a single Model Context Protocol (MCP) endpoint.

What the label means

An AI-Native Neocloud is a cloud platform designed from scratch for AI agents to operate, not just humans to navigate.

Traditional clouds (AWS, GCP, Azure) were built for human operators. Their APIs are programmatic alternatives to dashboards. Auth is fragmented. Billing lives in a separate console. Observability requires another vendor. An agent given keys to five services with five auth models and five billing systems breaks at every boundary.

An AI-Native Neocloud collapses that sprawl:

The stack unified under one key

PrimitiveScalix implementation
DatabaseScalixNova: serverless Postgres (16, 17, 18) with instant branching and PITR
ComputeScalix Run: hardware-isolated MicroVMs; Scalix Functions: serverless MicroVM calls
AI InferenceOne OpenAI-compatible endpoint, a curated model catalog, a free tier; token metering and spend caps
AuthScoped API clients, redirect URIs, row-level security integration
StorageS3-compatible object storage with free data ingress
Email & DomainsTransactional email, custom domains with managed SSL
KV & EventsKey-value caches and event queues
BillingSingle credit pool across all services; real-time agent-readable spend

Try the platform

You can create a database on Postgres 16, 17, or 18 at Scalix Nova without a card, on a trial credit.

FAQ

What does AI-Native Neocloud mean?

It means the cloud infrastructure was designed from day one for AI agents to operate autonomously. Every service (database, compute, AI inference, storage, auth, billing) is exposed through a single Model Context Protocol endpoint. An agent holding one API key can query databases, deploy containers, run migrations, and check its own bill without human intervention for routine operations.

How is this different from AWS, GCP, or Azure?

Traditional hyperscalers were built for human operators navigating dashboards. Their APIs are programmatic afterthoughts. An AI-Native Neocloud is built with agent-operability as a first-class concern: one gateway, one key, one billing surface, and MCP as a native control plane with human-in-the-loop guardrails.

What is ScalixNova?

ScalixNova is our purpose-built, Rust-engineered serverless PostgreSQL engine. It speaks the standard Postgres wire protocol, supports instant database branching and point-in-time recovery, and scales to zero when idle. It runs on dedicated EU infrastructure we operate.

Where does it run?

Today Scalix World runs on dedicated European infrastructure operated by European and Indian companies. No US parent. India region is planned but not yet operational.

Can I move my existing Postgres workload?

Yes. ScalixNova speaks the standard PostgreSQL wire protocol. Standard tooling (pg_dump, pg_restore, logical replication) works. The database move is straightforward. Non-Postgres parts (auth users, storage objects, branch history) require application-level migration.
