Octelium
A next-gen FOSS self-hosted unified zero trust secure access platform
Octelium is an open source, self-hosted unified secure-access platform built for modern infrastructure and hybrid environments. It positions itself as more than a typical VPN; it supports zero-trust network access (ZTNA), “BeyondCorp”-style access, API/AI gateway functionality, and even serves as a PaaS-like deployment surface. One of its key strengths is identity-based, application-layer (L7) aware control, meaning access decisions are made per request, with context and policy rather than simple network-level allow/block rules. It supports both client-based (e.g., WireGuard/QUIC tunnels) and client-less access models, which makes it flexible for both human users and automated workloads. The project also highlights self-hosted, no hidden “server-side” locked components, giving organizations greater ownership and control over access, rather than relying on proprietary SaaS. -

PaaSTA
An open, distributed platform as a service
PaaSTA is a highly-available, distributed system for building, deploying, and running services using containers and Kubernetes. PaaSTA has been running production services at Yelp since 2016. It was originally designed to run on top of Apache Mesos but has subsequently been updated to use Kubernetes. Over time the features and functionality that PaaSTA provides have increased but the principal design remains the same. PaaSTA aims to take a declarative description of the services that teams need to run and then ensures that those services are deployed safely, efficiently, and in a manner that is easy for the teams to maintain. Rather than managing Kubernetes YAML files, PaaSTA provides a simplified schema to describe your service and in addition to configuring Kubernetes it can also configure other infrastructure tools to provide monitoring, logging, cost management etc. -
