Self-hosted Kubernetes PaaS for developers without specialized knowledge
Kubero is a self-hosted Platform as a Service that deploys applications on Kubernetes without requiring specialized knowledge. Deploy from containers or source code with GitOps workflows.

Kubero is a self-hosted Platform as a Service (PaaS) designed to democratize Kubernetes deployments. It enables developers to deploy applications on Kubernetes clusters without specialized container orchestration knowledge, following 12-factor app principles.
Kubero supports deployment from existing Docker containers or directly from source code across multiple languages including Go, Python, Node.js, PHP, Ruby, and Rust. The platform provides GitOps-driven CI/CD pipelines with up to four staging environments, automatic review apps for pull requests, and seamless redeployment triggers on branch or tag pushes.
The platform ships with 160+ application templates for popular software like WordPress, Grafana, and Bitwarden, plus integrated add-ons for PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB, and more. Built-in features include vulnerability scanning, application logs, metrics monitoring, scheduled tasks, and notifications via Discord, Slack, or webhooks.
Kubero runs Kubernetes-native with two containers (kubero-ui and Operator) and stores all data in Kubernetes etcd without requiring external databases. It supports major Git providers (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Gitea, Gogs) and can be installed on existing clusters or new ones via the Kubero CLI on GKE, Scaleway, DigitalOcean, Linode, or Kind for local development.
When teams consider Kubero, these hosted platforms usually appear on the same shortlist.
Looking for a hosted option? These are the services engineering teams benchmark against before choosing open source.
Multi-Stage Application Deployment
Deploy applications through review, test, staging, and production environments with automatic promotion and rollback capabilities
Automated Review Apps for Pull Requests
Automatically spin up isolated environments for each pull request and clean them up when merged or closed
Rapid Template-Based Deployments
Launch WordPress, Grafana, or 160+ other applications instantly using pre-configured templates with integrated add-ons
Self-Hosted PaaS for Development Teams
Provide developers Heroku-like deployment experience on internal Kubernetes infrastructure with full data sovereignty
No. Kubero abstracts Kubernetes complexity, allowing developers to deploy applications without specialized container orchestration knowledge. The CLI can even provision clusters on supported cloud providers.
Kubero integrates with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Gitea, Gogs, and Forgejo for both hosted and self-hosted repositories.
Built-in add-ons (PostgreSQL, Redis, MongoDB, etc.) are designed for quick starts but are not High Availability ready. For production, consider external HA-ready add-ons like Crunchy Postgres Cluster or Redis Cluster.
Both. Kubero supports deploying pre-built Docker containers directly or building from source code across multiple languages including Go, Python, Node.js, PHP, Ruby, and Rust.
All Kubero configuration data is stored in Kubernetes etcd. No external database is required, keeping the architecture simple and Kubernetes-native.
