Top 4 Features
The Enterprise Kubernetes Management Platform
Streamlined Day 2 Kubernetes Operations
Once you’ve provisioned a Kubernetes cluster with SUSE Rancher, operations are centralized and administrators can deal with all aspects of Day 2 operations. From one console, administrators can monitor any cluster in any location, upgrade Kubernetes versions, backup etcd and recover degraded clusters.
Full lifecycle management for hosted Kubernetes clusters
Run on SUSE for superior reliability and security for your business-critical workloads on AWS EKS, Microsoft AKS and Google GKE. Give operators full lifecycle management of the most popular cloud-hosted distributions including node management and autoscaling, from a single pane of glass. Import, provision, upgrade, and configure and secure clusters across all three providers directly using the SUSE Rancher’s new unified, intuitive user experience. Additionally, SUSE Rancher managed deployments support CIS templating and scanning to minimize configuration drift between clusters.
Centralized Kubernetes Security
SUSE Rancher admins can work with their security team to centrally define how users should interact with managed Kubernetes clusters and how containerized workloads should operate. Once polices have been defined, assigning them to any Kubernetes cluster is instantaneous.
GitOps at Scale for Edge Clusters
SUSE Rancher Continuous Delivery allows for maximum cluster consistency from core to cloud to edge. SUSE Rancher supports from 1 to 1,000,000 clusters from a single console with built-in security capabilities, running any CNCF-certified Kubernetes distribution. By streamlining application delivery across any infrastructure in any location, enterprises can use SUSE Rancher to accelerate their journey towards true digital transformation.
