Kubero

---

Kubero [pronounced: Kube Hero] is a self-hosted PaaS (Platform as a Service) that allows any developer to deploy their application on Kubernetes without specialized knowledge. Kubero follows the principles of 12-factor apps. It is possible to run apps based on existing containers or from source code.

[!NOTE] Kubero v3.0.0 is on the way!

We're gearing up for the Kubero v3.0.0 release! 🎉 This major update features a rewritten backend, now powered by NestJS, bringing best practices and maintainability.

Basic Concept

Kubero is Kubernetes native and runs with two containers on any Kubernetes instance (kubero-ui and Operator). All data is stored on your Kubernetes etcd without an extra database.

Quickstart

1) Download and unpack the Kubero CLI (MacOS, Linux, Windows)

Binaries (MacOS, Linux)

$ curl -fsSL get.kubero.dev | bash

Brew (MacOS, Linux)

$ brew tap kubero-dev/kubero
$ brew install kubero-cli

2) Run kubero install to install all components on a new or your existing cluster

You can bring your own existing cluster or create one with the kubero install on one of the following providers:

• GKE
• Scaleway
• DigitalOcean
• Linode
• Kind (local)

Supported GIT repositories (hosted and self-hosted)

• Gitea / Forgejo
• Gogs
• Github
• Gitlab
• Bitbucket

Tested languages/frameworks

Basically everything that can be packaged in a single container can be deployed by Kubero.

• GoLang (including Hugo, gin-gonic)
• Python (including Flask)
• JavaScript/NodeJS
• PHP (including Laravel)
• Ruby (including Rails)
• Static HTML
• Rust (including Rocket)
• ...

How GitOps Works

1. Create a pipeline with the phases you need (review, test, stage, production)
2. (optional) Connect the pipeline to your git repository (GitHub, Bitbucket, GiLab, Gitea, Gogs)
3. Configure your apps with cronjobs and addons

Kubero starts now building your app. Once the build is complete, Kubero will launch the final container and make it accessible via the configured domain.
