Cluster Lifecycle Management

Centralize Kubernetes Fleet Mgmt for Public Clouds

Automate cluster lifecycle management of EKS, AKS, GKE, and OKE across AWS, Azure, GCP and OCI

Fully Automated AM Updates

Across K8s Clusters

Ensure that all Kubernetes clusters are running the latest, secure AMIs with minimal manual effort.



Rafay automates the refresh of Amazon Machine Images (AMIs), ensuring compliance with security standards. This process includes rolling out updates across clusters with minimal downtime.

Reduced Downtime

Automated updates ensure that clusters are always running on the latest versions without causing disruptions.

Security Assurance

Consistently up-to-date AMIs reduce vulnerabilities and compliance risks.

Lifecycle Management for
EKS, AKS, GKE and OKE

Simplify multi-cloud operations by enabling centralized management and control of Kubernetes clusters across different cloud environments, improving operational efficiency, reducing complexity, and ensuring consistent security and governance.



Rafay’s platform provides a unified control plane that allows organizations to manage Kubernetes clusters across multiple cloud providers such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. This multi-cloud Kubernetes offering abstracts away the complexities of dealing with cloud-specific APIs, providing a consistent management interface. Organizations can enforce consistent security, governance, and operational policies across all clusters, regardless of their cloud location.

Centralized Management

A unified control plane simplifies operations by providing a single interface to manage clusters across different clouds, reducing the need to switch between multiple cloud provider dashboards.

Consistent Governance

 Ensures that security, compliance, and operational policies are enforced uniformly across all environments, improving overall governance and reducing the risk of configuration drift.

Operational
Agility

Multi-cloud support allows organizations to optimize workloads by dynamically allocating resources based on performance and cost, improving efficiency and reducing cloud costs.

Centralized K8s Cluster Lifecycle

Management & Visibility

Simplify operations and enhance visibility across multiple cloud environments with a single management interface.



Rafay’s centralized control plane allows organizations to manage Kubernetes clusters across multiple cloud providers from a single dashboard. This ensures consistent governance and security policies across all environments.

Operational Efficiency

Unified management reduces complexity and silos.

Governance

Consistent policies are applied across all environments, improving security and compliance.

Configuration Standards Enforcement

Across Kubernetes Fleet

Simplify cluster provisioning and updates with standardized processes, reducing operational complexity.



Rafay automates the creation and management of Kubernetes clusters using standardized templates, 
ensuring consistency and reducing manual errors during provisioning and updates.

Operational Consistency

Standardized clusters reduce the 
risk of misconfigurations

Efficiency

Automation reduces the manual effort needed to build and maintain clusters.

One-Click Kubernetes

Provisioning & Upgrades

Shorten development cycles and improve time-to-market with automated Kubernetes resource provisioning.



Rafay streamlines the process of provisioning Kubernetes resources, allowing development teams to release software more frequently. 
Automation reduces the bottlenecks typically associated with manual resource provisioning.

Faster Releases

Development teams can deploy faster without waiting on manual resource setups.

Reduced Errors

Standardized, automated resource provisioning reduces the risk of configuration errors.
