About Codespaces
Use the full power of Visual Studio Code, including the editor, terminal, debugger, version control, settings sync, and the entire ecosystem of extensions. Work in the browser or hand off to your desktop. Spin up new dev environment for any sized project in seconds with prebuilt images. GitHub’s own 35GB dev image starts in under 10 seconds. Scale your cloud VMs up to 32 cores and 64GB of RAM. And with low-latency connections across four regions, you won’t even remember it’s not your local machine.

Strong Network
Strong Network allows the management of containers for DevOps online (as opposed to locally on developers laptop) and access them through a cloud IDE or a SSH connection (in the case of a local IDE). These containers provide a complete management of access keys and credentials to multiple types of resources, in addition to providing data loss prevention (DLP). In addition we combine the IDE with a secure chrome browser (remote browser isolation) such that any third party applications for DevOps can be accessed with DLP. This platform is a complete replacement for VDI/DaaS for code development. Our platform allows the provisioning and management of containers for development online (as opposed to locally on developers' laptops, using a solution like docker desktop for example) and enables accessing them through a cloud IDE or a SSH connection (in the case of a local IDE).
