Why do I need Deckhouse Platform?

  • Out-of-the-box secure configuration of the Kubernetes cluster: least component privileges, pre-configured role model, end-to-end object identity in the audit system, integration with external directory services.
  • Best practice compliance: regular infrastructure checks to ensure CIS Benchmark compliance, scanning images for vulnerabilities.
  • Network security: managing network policies in one place, monitoring of all incoming and outgoing connections, visualizing network activities.
  • Control of running applications: built-in implementation of Pod Security Standards and a ready-to-use, extensible set of recommended policies.
  • Security event auditing and logging: an out-of-the-box expandable set of rules for identifying security events, flexible filtering of events sent to the SIEM system, and sending notifications about security incidents to IS personnel.
  • Focus on application development. Your infrastructure simply becomes a well-known, transparent API that can be comprehensively managed anywhere (any clouds, bare metal servers or hybrid).
  • Build and update apps quickly. Benefit from a true CI/CD enabler.
  • Deploy & test new features in unlimited fashion: create new environments whenever you want.
  • Enjoy automated canary deployments and service mesh with Istio.
  • Boost your observability with easy-to-use dashboards.
  • Use custom metrics for out-of-the-box autoscaling.
  • Forget about low-level Kubernetes machinery and focus on real DevOps and SRE, rather than the infrastructure itself.
  • Run ready-to-use Kubernetes clusters in less than 10 minutes.
  • Roll out completely identical clusters anywhere: bare metal servers, private clouds, or public clouds.
  • Leverage integrated and ready-to-use HPA for your apps.
  • Never miss important updates from upstream Kubernetes, certificate renewals, etc.
  • Get out-of-the-box security features including single sign-on, support for external authentication providers, and role-based access control.
  • Leverage the latest containerization technology to build cutting edge services and products.
  • Accelerate time-to-market with properly rolled out & maintained Kubernetes.
  • Boost team efficiency 300% by equipping them with the best OSS tools for Kubernetes.
  • Save on infrastructure with automatic downscaling. Consume only what you need right now.
  • Get a CNCF-certified platform based on upstream Kubernetes and an Open Source core with no vendor lock-in.

What makes Deckhouse Platform special?

Compliance with PCI SSC recommendations

  • Deckhouse complies with most of the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC)* recommendations. The platform is solidly protected against security threats specific to container-based payment systems. Banks, e-commerce, fintech companies, and other financial institutions can use the platform as a proven and secure container orchestration solution.
    • * PCI SSC is a global forum that helps develop, apply, and improve security standards to protect payment systems.
  • In our assessment, we used the Container and Container Orchestration Tools Guide. We analyzed each of the potential vulnerabilities and compared the recommended security best practices to the security approaches implemented in Deckhouse.

NoOps

  • System software on the nodes (kernel, CRI, kubelet, etc.) is automatically managed.
  • Kubernetes core software (control plane, etcd, certificates, etc.) is automatically managed.
  • Kubernetes platform components are automatically managed.
  • Bug-free Kubernetes as all components are regularly updated (delay from upstream is less than 1 month).
  • To upgrade Kubernetes to another minor version, all you have to do is to change one line in your configuration. Upgrades to new patch versions are performed automatically.

SLA by design

  • By incorporating the NoOps approach and everything undergoing careful testing prior to release, our cornerstone is reliability.
  • Thus, we can provide SLA even without direct access to your infrastructure — 99.95%*.
    • * To enable this, the architecture of your clusters must first be approved by our engineers and our guidelines must be followed.
    • * This applies to Enterprise Edition only.

Runs anywhere

  • Clusters are infrastructure-agnostic since they can be deployed on a public cloud of your choice (AWS, GCP, Microsoft Azure, OVH Cloud) or even bare metal servers.
  • Self-hosted cloud solutions (OpenStack and vSphere) are supported as well*.
  • Kubernetes clusters created with Deckhouse are entirely identical no matter which underlying infrastructure is used. All platform features & modules are available everywhere.

Industry trusted solution

  • It’s 100% vanilla Kubernetes since we follow the upstream version of Kubernetes.
  • Based on shell-operator & addon-operator Open Source projects that have been around for 2+ years and adopted by a variety of vendors.
  • Avoid vendor lock-in with Open Source (and free) core of the platform.
    • The EE edition development process is also public (on GitHub) and all source code is open (but not free).

Kubernetes, the easy way

  • Deploying Deckhouse is easy as can be: a couple of CLI commands and 8 minutes and you've got production-ready Kubernetes.
  • Ready-to-use configurations for each cloud provider available — just choose the one that suits you the best.
  • Even deploying on bare metal is no longer a big deal.

A fully-featured platform

  • Get auto-scaling, observability, security, and a service mesh right out of the box!
    • For a more comprehensive understanding of the modules available in Deckhouse, read the documentation.
  • Kubernetes has a lot to offer, but that route is accompanied by further configuration, integration, and maintenance, which becomes quite a feat to handle. Do it the easy way with Deckhouse!
    • Our basic principles are fully-featured Kubernetes, total integrity in all the components, and simplicity without impeding flexibility.

Security

  • Deckhouse provides an advanced set of tools to create a genuinely secure production environment.

    Learn more about security
  • We use secure software for all platform components. All images get pulled strictly from the Deckhouse repository. A set of strict policies and restrictions controls the interaction of cluster components and the platform.
  • The features of the platform include:
    • secure access to the cluster and components;
    • flexible management of network policies;
    • auditing K8s events;
    • managing TLS certificates;
    • automatic updating of platform and cluster components;
    • monitoring CVEs for the software used.
