Task containers are now generally available on Upsun Cloud, giving you a place to run AI agents alongside the rest of your application.

Every organization knows what their database monitoring tool costs on the invoice. Almost none of them have added up what it costs in the people running it, the incidents it doesn't catch fast enough, and the savings sitting in the environment that nobody has visibility to find.

GitHub Copilot Enterprise pricing is $39 per user per month, and since June 1, 2026, each seat includes $39 in monthly GitHub AI Credits, pooled across your whole organization and consumed by token usage at per-model rates.
