About Edka
Edka automates the creation of a production‑ready Platform as a Service (PaaS) on top of standard cloud virtual machines and Kubernetes. It reduces the manual effort required to run applications on Kubernetes by providing preconfigured open source add-ons that turn a Kubernetes cluster into a full-fledged PaaS.
Edka simplifies Kubernetes operations by organizing them into layers:
Layer 1: Cluster provisioning – A simple UI to provision a k3s-based cluster. You can create a cluster in one click using the default values.
Layer 2: Add-ons - One-click deploy for metrics-server, cert-manager, and various operators; preconfigured for Hetzner, no extra setup required.
Layer 3: Applications - Minimal config UIs for apps built on top of add-ons.
Layer 4: Deployments - Edka updates deployments automatically (with semantic versioning rules), supports instant rollbacks, autoscaling, persistent volumes, secrets/env imports, and quick public exposure.

Fairwinds Insights
Protect and optimize your mission-critical Kubernetes applications. Fairwinds Insights is a Kubernetes configuration validation platform that proactively monitors your Kubernetes and container configurations and recommends improvements. The software combines trusted open source tools, toolchain integrations, and SRE expertise based on hundreds of successful Kubernetes deployments. Balancing the velocity of engineering with the reactionary pace of security can result in messy Kubernetes configurations and unnecessary risk. Trial-and-error efforts to adjust CPU and memory settings eats into engineering time and can result in over-provisioning data center capacity or cloud compute. Traditional monitoring tools are critical, but don’t provide everything needed to proactively identify changes to maintain reliable Kubernetes workloads.

Kubernetes
Kubernetes (K8s) is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It groups containers that make up an application into logical units for easy management and discovery. Kubernetes builds upon 15 years of experience of running production workloads at Google, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community. Designed on the same principles that allows Google to run billions of containers a week, Kubernetes can scale without increasing your ops team. Whether testing locally or running a global enterprise, Kubernetes flexibility grows with you to deliver your applications consistently and easily no matter how complex your need is. Kubernetes is open source giving you the freedom to take advantage of on-premises, hybrid, or public cloud infrastructure, letting you effortlessly move workloads to where it matters to you.
