Gitops-based deployment tooling, service catalog and a curated stack of open-source components. Turnkey solution for startups and medium-sized businesses to run applications on Kubernetes, easing the load on platform builders and developers alike. And your wallet.
# Install Gimlet on any Kubernetes cluster.
# Even on a cluster running on your laptop (we recommend using k3d).
# Install with:
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gimlet-io/gimlet/main/deploy/gimlet.yaml
# Or start deploying your applications on Gimlet Cloud. (See the pricing)
# We have a free tier that won't make you think every corner.
Do more with your platform building effort
Building a platform with cloud native tools is a broad and costly exercise.
Batteries included
Neither FluxCD, ArgoCD or Backstage is a platform. They are building blocks that platform builders have to stitch together. Gimlet did the work for you.
Speaks developer
Gimlet is not an inventory of Kubernetes resources: Pods, Ingresses, and ConfigMaps. You focus on your source code and pull requests.
Gitops promises delivered
Gitops was supposed to give us an audit log. But all we got is manually cross-referencing technical commits between many repos. Gimlet pulled this together.
“Few tools feel like they have changed the way you approach something so fundamentally like Gimlet. Gimlet introduced us to the world of Gitops which we love. It's easy and user friendly to get started. The documentation is solid and easy to follow something we highly appreciate in any tool”
“As a developer, I found that Gimlet significantly lowered the barrier to entry for using Kubernetes by adopting an opinionated approach. I can now easily create and deploy Kubernetes clusters in a reproducible manner.”
“Thanks to Gimlet we were able to unify and automate the deployment of hundreds of deep learning models as part of our MLOps stack. Instead of spending time to oversee their deployment process, we can focus on developing Large Language Models and making the actual impact for our clients.”
“I have really enjoyed using Gimlet and I miss it in my new work. I found that having all service deployments in the same place gives a better overview and also more control of the services. The UI is easy to use and you can easily change the configuration. It really speeds up the otherwise slow feedback loop.”
“A key benefit is that Gimlet automates the trivial tasks, while still giving you full access to the underlying Kubernetes infrastructure when needed. Even without a lot of prior Kubernetes knowledge, I could quickly get started developing and deploying services, while learning about the underlying bits and pieces in smaller steps, as they became relevant. The Web UI is really useful for getting a quick overview of the deployment state of a service. It is also very convenient in the rare case where you need to roll something back, and you don't have time to fiddle with command line tools.”
“Time spent working on cloud infrastructure is reduced a lot! With Gimlet, many things are ready out of the box. It integrates nicely with Grafana and Prometheus, so observability is on point. The Gimlet team are experts in k8s and support is always swift.”
