Meet Saleor Engine: Run your storefront and Saleor apps on our infrastructure
Saleor Engine runs the storefronts, apps and integrations you built around Saleor. Scaled by us, one team on call, one bill. Now in an invite-only pilot for Saleor Cloud Accounts.
Thus far we've run and scaled the Saleor core and official Saleor Apps for Saleor Cloud accounts. The storefront, the ERP sync, the job that pushes stock — those stayed in their own infrastructure, run by our clients. That code is how the store becomes yours. At the same time, we saw commerce companies often struggling to become technology companies. Guess what: we think they shouldn't have to.
Why
Engine is where freedom meets TCO and convenience
You run your business, we squeeze the most out of tech.
A big advantage of headless is that you can precisely run and operate that outer ring of apps and integrations, without anyone's permission. Teams could build the app and run it end to end. Keeping it up that way gives a lot of freedom, but it also comes with a tangible cost: a full deploy pipeline and staff on call when things run slow and someone needs to figure out why. It all landed on a commerce team, or on a partner who does not sit next to the core. When those two fail separately, the incident is a thread between two companies. Not anymore.
Your technology partner
You don't have to become a technology company
Custom apps are how you make Saleor yours. Running them in production is a different job: an on-call rota, someone who knows how to scale through a traffic spike, someone who gets paged at 3 a.m. Most commerce teams should not have to hire for that.
With Engine, Saleor is your technology partner. We run and scale the custom pieces next to the core, we carry the pager, and your team stays on the store.
What Engine runs
Storefronts, apps and integrations
Everything custom around your Saleor core, run by the people who built the core.
Storefronts
Your storefront, for example one built on Paper, with separate production and staging environments, delivered from the edge.
Apps and custom integrations
Custom Saleor apps and integrations, like an ERP sync, run as containers next to the core and scale with traffic.
Where your team already works
Deploys, variables and logs in the Dashboard
The Engine app is also our chance to say this out loud. We are integrating the Saleor Cloud console and the Saleor Dashboard, and we are going deeper than we ever have. That is why Engine already lives in the Dashboard as a Dashboard app. The rest of that join — Cloud environments, and the Cloud and developer APIs — is planned for early 2027.
What is live, deploys and rollbacks, variables and logs, for every storefront and app.
