GLIK Cloud vs. GLIK Studio

Compares the roles of GLIK Cloud and GLIK Studio, helping teams understand where orchestration logic is built, executed, and managed across the GLIK platform.

GLIK Cloud and GLIK Studio are closely integrated components of the GLIK platform, but they serve distinct purposes. Understanding the difference between them is important for users building, deploying, and managing AI agent applications.

This page provides a concise comparison between the two, clarifying how each fits into the broader orchestration environment.


What Is GLIK Cloud?

GLIK Cloud is the fully managed, browser-accessible orchestration platform hosted by Rivalz. It includes:

  • A secure environment for deploying and running agent workflows

  • Managed orchestration engine and memory runtime

  • Multi-tenant support for teams and clients

  • Integrated access to usage monitoring, template deployment, and plugin systems

  • Enterprise-ready security, access control, and audit logging

GLIK Cloud abstracts infrastructure complexity, allowing organizations to operationalize agents without deploying local runtime services.


What Is GLIK Studio?

GLIK Studio is the visual builder interface within GLIK Cloud. It allows users to create orchestration flows using a low-code, drag-and-drop experience.

GLIK Studio provides:

  • Access to system blocks such as LLM, IF/ELSE, Tool, Doc Extractor, and more

  • Visual flow logic with structured memory control

  • Ability to define input fields, assign variables, and configure decision logic

  • A UI-first way to prototype, test, and refine orchestration apps

While GLIK Studio is hosted inside GLIK Cloud, it is just one of several user interfaces supported by the platform (others include the CLI and DSL editor).

Developer Notes

  • Apps created in Studio are compiled into execution graphs within GLIK Cloud.

  • The Studio uses a block-based editor that compiles into runtime nodes.

  • Templates built in Studio can be versioned, published, and reused within GLIK Cloud environments or exported for use in Open Core.
