How Rafay Works

Rafay’s single cloud controller manages hundreds of clusters with ease while allowing software-defined isolation across any department, business group, or geography.  The service operates at 99.99% uptime governed by an SLA and is SOC 2 Type 2 certified. A self-managed version is also available.

Flexible Deployment Options to Suit your IT Strategy

SaaS

Let Rafay manage the controller with 99.99% SLA while you manage your clusters. This is our most popular deployment option.

Self-Hosted

Host the Rafay solution yourself and self-manage the controller and clusters. This option is also used in air-gapped environments.

Fully-Managed K8s Service

Let Rafay manage your entire K8s operations & clusters with our expert K8s operations team.

Leverage the Power of SaaS for Kubernetes Cluster Management

As enterprises modernize their applications, they are quickly realizing the significant increase in the cost and resources required to manage Kubernetes clusters. Rafay’s SaaS-first approach enables companies to gain efficiencies from Kubernetes almost immediately, thus speeding digital transformation initiatives while keeping operating costs low. Benefits of a cloud approach include:

Reliability

Rafay’s platform has consistently maintained >99.99% uptime

Fast time to K8s

Gain the benefits of Kubernetes in hours, not months

Operational Scalability

Easily manage hundreds of clusters and apps in software-defined groups with no management needed for administrative clusters

Zero-Trust Security

Cloak your K8s API endpoints so they’re never visibible on the Internet, and centrally configure role-based access control for easy access to any cluster, anywhere

Deployment Flexibility

Leverage the cloud or deploy the platform in air-gapped environments

Zero-Trust Security Architecture

The KOP’s unique zero-trust architecture doesn’t require inbound access to your Kubernetes clusters. Rafay’s Zero-Trust Kubectl Access (ZTKA) governs kubectl activity by end-users as well as CI/CD systems with role-based access control and user-level auditing of all actions.
