Woofun AI reports that OpenAI has finalized the acquisition of backend proxy platform Ona, though specific financial terms remain undisclosed. The strategic move aims to integrate Ona’s security cloud execution technology, enabling Codex to manage tasks requiring extended runtime durations. Following the transaction, Ona will be absorbed into OpenAI’s Codex team.

Ona has spent recent years facilitating the migration of software development workflows from local environments to the cloud. The platform has supported 2 million developers in maintaining secure and reproducible cloud environments, while also providing infrastructure for various shared hosting providers.
