Turnkey Enterprise GitOps • AWS & Azure
GitOps Automation Without the Glue.
A turnkey, opinionated platform built on open-source tools for Kubernetes in AWS and Azure — helping you achieve global GitOps in a single day!
Delivering an open-source solution with no vendor lock-in, GitOps Manager™ combines open-source GitHub Actions (build / deploy globally) with enterprise automation to create, deploy, and monitor clusters and workloads with speed and confidence.
(Google Cloud support coming soon — we’re inviting early sponsors to join us.)
Trusted by a multibillion-dollar financial institution. Live metrics capture real GitOps builds and deployments from teams around the world — fueling global adoption across the open-source community.
You might say that’s great for finance — but if your company runs compute workloads in data centers, the cloud, or both, this platform was built for you. Whatever your industry, it accelerates delivery with global CI/CD pipelines, helping teams ship faster, scale automatically, and save costs operationally while enabling high availability and business continuity out of the box.
Why GitOps Manager™?
Built for regulated and high-scale teams that need speed without sacrificing control, GitOps Manager™ delivers a fully managed, opinionated GitOps platform with zero-touch upgrades and everything-as-code — a turnkey foundation for globally resilient Kubernetes infrastructure across AWS and Azure.
🚀 The Stack
ArgoCD
GitOps continuous delivery for managing Kubernetes configurations with declarative automation using Kustomize to target any environment seamlessly.
Argo Workflows
Argo’s Cron Workflows support DAGs (Directed Acyclic Graphs) to orchestrate even the most complex job dependencies with ease — automating your production workflow requirements, from traditional batch processing to dynamic, event-driven pipelines on Kubernetes.
Traefik
Private ingress powered by Traefik, delivering secure TLS termination with wildcard certificates and native TCP routing — enabling DNS, gRPC, and other non-HTTP workloads across Dev, QA, UAT, and Production clusters.
Kibana
Self-hosted observability powered by ECK (Elastic Cloud on Kubernetes), providing centralized logging, metrics, and APM telemetry — collecting pod, node, and application performance data directly from your clusters. With integrated dashboards, you can not only monitor and run your infrastructure efficiently but also turn APM metrics into business insights — such as visualizing profits, performance, and utilization across regions.
Kubernetes Dashboard
Secure, web-based UI for inspecting workloads and troubleshooting in real time. The Kubernetes Dashboard gives you full visibility into both native and custom resources, with the ability to exec into pods, monitor workloads, and manage your cluster through a complete graphical interface.
🔑 Key Capabilities
Configure Self-Hosted Runners
Build and deploy entirely within your own cloud using Docker Bake, BuildKit, and secure self-hosted GitHub Actions runners. Credentials are pulled from GitHub Secrets but never executed on shared GitHub-hosted runners.
Integrates seamlessly with our open-source components to enable you to build and deploy globally:
•
Multi-Cloud Build Action
— a GitHub Action for secure multi-cloud container builds.
•
K8s Deploy
— a reusable workflow for deploying workloads to any Kubernetes cluster globally across AWS and Azure using GitOps best practices.
Agent Install (AWS / Azure)
Leverage your cloud shell to quickly install an agent that securely manages your credentials and automation directly within your own cloud environment.
The agent operates inside private subnets with outbound-only connectivity, ensuring no inbound ports or public exposure. All communication is encrypted end-to-end via TLS over port 443, keeping authentication and build traffic fully protected between GitOps Manager™ and your AWS or Azure account.
Node Pool / Group Support
Simplify cluster operations with intelligent node pool and group management directly from the GUI. Suggest and create node pools for specific workload types, copy configurations from existing clusters, scale dynamically, and rename pools with ease.
Manage spot instance settings, taints and tolerations, and labels in one place — bringing consistent, predictable pod placement across all your nodes and environments.
Global Secret Management
Centralized, encrypted secret management across namespaces and clusters — versioned and synchronized between Azure Key Vault and AWS Secrets Manager. Secrets are deployed to the specified namespace or cluster while remaining fully version-controlled and auditable in your cloud.
Pod / Workload Identity
Native support for AWS EKS Pod Identity and Azure AKS Workload Entra ID, providing short-lived, cloud-managed credentials that grant least-privilege access to individual pods — eliminating the need to store or distribute static access keys within your containers.
Breaking Changes / Audit
Stay informed and in control with detailed auditing of all actions across your clusters and environments. Every task — from build to deploy — is logged for traceability, ensuring compliance and accountability.
Before each quarterly upgrade, receive a complete report of breaking changes and clear guidance on actions to take beforehand. This proactive audit process helps you plan and validate updates confidently, avoiding downtime and preserving compatibility across your workloads.
💼 The Subscription
Annual Subscription
Includes initial setup, quarterly updates for core open-source tools, and full-stack upgrade validation — with the option to upgrade your Kubernetes cluster version as part of each managed release.
Optional Consulting
Leverage our expertise for knowledge transfer and problem solving — with deep experience in Kubernetes, GitOps, and the open-source tool stack that powers your infrastructure.
📈 SLA Options
Up to 99.9% availability with scheduled maintenance windows, proactive monitoring, and validated upgrades — ensuring stability and performance across all environments.
