Discover top open-source software, updated regularly with real-world adoption signals.

Centralized automation for thousands of Kubernetes clusters everywhere
Kubermatic Kubernetes Platform provides unified, high‑density management of Kubernetes clusters across multicloud, on‑prem, and edge environments, with a free Community edition and an Enterprise edition for large‑scale deployments.

Kubermatic Kubernetes Platform enables organizations to centrally automate the lifecycle of thousands of Kubernetes clusters across any infrastructure—public clouds, on‑prem data centers, and edge locations. The platform delivers high‑density provisioning, resilient operation, and unified policy enforcement, allowing teams to manage diverse environments from a single control plane.
Two editions are offered: the Community Edition, released under the Apache 2.0 license, provides core multi‑cloud and edge management features at no cost. The Enterprise Edition adds premium capabilities designed for deployments with more than 50 clusters and includes official support for subscribers. Installation follows the official release guides, and extensive documentation covers building from source, architecture, and extensibility. While the main branch is actively developed and may contain unstable code, the platform benefits from a vibrant community and commercial backing for production use.
When teams consider Kubermatic, these hosted platforms usually appear on the same shortlist.
