Centralized data service management
for many Kubernetes clusters

Klutch is open-source software that simplifies managing data services and enables on-demand provisioning via a Kubernetes-native interface.

About Klutch

Klutch is a powerful, Kubernetes-native orchestration tool that simplifies data management across multiple Kubernetes clusters. It provides centralized management and on-demand provisioning of data services through a Kubernetes-native interface, while also serving as a central registry for service instances across environments. Klutch leverages the power of Crossplane® for writing Klutch integrations enabling more efficient operations across multiple clusters and cloud providers.

See Klutch in Action

Klutch is an abstraction layer for data services, allowing you to spawn service instances from Kubernetes clusters that are hosted on a central management cluster. This central cluster hosts the service instance, stores data, and plan information, and handles backup and restore. Klutch can delegate service creation to pluggable backends like VMs, pod-based operators, or native cloud services. Watch Klutch spin up a new PostgreSQL database remotely in seconds:


Open Source, Kubernetes-Native Data Service Management

Unified Interface & Multi-Environment Capability

Klutch provides a single, unified experience for managing various data service types (e.g., PostgreSQL, S3) across diverse environments. It's designed to work with different cloud providers, integrating features from various platforms, and supporting hybrid- and multi-cloud setups.
