About Us
European-founded. Built by infrastructure operators, for infrastructure operators.
We started Alpha because we lived the problem. Years of operating distributed systems across factories, substations, and edge sites taught us that the tooling gap between cloud-native and the real world is where operations break. Alpha exists to close that gap — with a single control plane that works from data center to factory floor. Built on open standards. European-headquartered, no CLOUD Act exposure.
