Edka Reviews

Edka Description

Edka streamlines the establishment of a production-ready Platform as a Service (PaaS) using standard cloud virtual machines and Kubernetes, significantly minimizing the manual labor needed to manage applications on Kubernetes by offering preconfigured open-source add-ons that effectively transform a Kubernetes cluster into a comprehensive PaaS solution.

To enhance Kubernetes operations, Edka organizes them into distinct layers:

Layer 1: Cluster provisioning – A user-friendly interface that allows for the effortless creation of a k3s-based cluster with just one click and default settings.
Layer 2: Add-ons – A convenient one-click deployment option for essential components like metrics-server, cert-manager, and various operators, all preconfigured for use with Hetzner, requiring no additional setup.
Layer 3: Applications – User interfaces with minimal configurations tailored for applications that utilize the aforementioned add-ons.
Layer 4: Deployments – Edka ensures automatic updates to deployments in accordance with semantic versioning rules, offering features such as instant rollbacks, autoscaling capabilities, persistent volume management, secret/environment imports, and quick public accessibility for applications. Furthermore, this structure allows developers to focus on building their applications rather than managing the underlying infrastructure.
