claudie

Platform for managing multi-cloud Kubernetes clusters with each nodepool in a different cloud-provider

Intro video

Typical use cases

Claudie has been built to target the following use case in the Kubernetes world.

• Cloud bursting
• Service interconnect
• Managed Kubernetes for providers that do not offer it
• Cost savings

Features

Manage multi-cloud Kubernetes clusters

Create fully-featured Kubernetes clusters composed of multiple different public Cloud providers in an easy and secure manner. Simply insert credentials to your cloud projects, define your cluster, and watch how the infra spawns right in front of you.

Management via IaC

Declaratively define your infrastructure with a simple, easy to understand YAML syntax. See example manifest.

Fast scale-up/scale-down of your infrastructure

To scale-up or scale-down, simply change a few lines in the input manifest and Claudie will take care of the rest in the matter of minutes.

Loadbalancing

Claudie has its own managed load-balancing solution, which you can use for Ingresses, the Kubernetes API server, or generally anything. Check out our LB docs.

Persistent storage volumes

Claudie comes pre-configured with a storage solution, with ready-to-use Storage Classes. See Storage docs to learn more.

Supported cloud providers

For adding support for other cloud providers, open an issue or propose a PR.

Get started using Claudie

1. Deploy Claudie Kubernetes manifests/claudie into a Kubernetes cluster:

   kubectl apply -k manifests/claudie
   

2. provide your own manifest via a Kubernetes Secret.

Have a look at our reference example input manifest to explore what's possible.

To see in detail how to correctly apply the manifest into Claudie, please refer to the CRUD document.

After the input manifest is successfully applied, the kubeconfig to your newly built clusters is output as a secret in the claudie namespace with a name in the form of <cluster-name>-<cluster-hash>-kubeconfig.
