GlasskubeThe next generation Package Manager for Kubernetes

We have been working with Kubernetes for years, but one of the biggest unresolved challenges in the cloud-native ecosystem is package management. We have struggled with existing technologies, creating complex manual workflows that are time-consuming to maintain for installing, updating, and configuring packages. ‎ Currently, we are focused on the user experience, aiming to save engineers as much time as possible by building on top of existing technologies. In the future, we plan to develop an entirely new packaging and bundling format for all cloud-native packages, providing a straightforward way to install and configure packages, offering simple upgrade paths, and enabling feedback, crash reports, and analytics, similar to how Android supports Play Store developers. ‎ With Glasskube, we are transforming the cloud-native ecosystem by developing a new standard that simplifies package management, similar to systems like macOS's Homebrew or npm. Our big-picture goal with Glasskube is to build enterprise-ready infrastructure software running mission-critical workloads in every one of the more than 3 million Kubernetes clusters globally.
