Provision and manage full Kubernetes-native data center infrastructure: create isolated projects with VPCs, deploy KubeVirt VMs across Linux distros, set up managed PostgreSQL/MariaDB databases, scale Kubernetes clusters, configure networking (EIPs/FIPs/Gateways), provision S3/PVC storage, and handle RBAC/groups using kubectl CRDs, bash scripts, and CLI.

Create a managed PostgreSQL or MariaDB database in a Kube-DC project, configure access for workloads via environment variables and secrets, and optionally expose externally via Gateway or LoadBalancer.
Create a new Kube-DC project with isolated VPC networking inside an existing organization. Handles network type selection (cloud vs public), organization verification, and project manifest generation.
Deploy a virtual machine in a Kube-DC project with SSH access, cloud-init configuration, and optional external IP exposure. Supports Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, Fedora, Alpine, openSUSE, Gentoo, and Windows images.
Deploy a containerized application to a Kube-DC project with optional database, service exposure (HTTPS via Gateway or direct EIP), and persistent storage. Covers Helm deployments and raw manifests.
Expose a Kube-DC service externally via Gateway Route (HTTP/HTTPS/gRPC with auto TLS) or Direct EIP + LoadBalancer (any TCP/UDP). Includes decision guide for choosing the right exposure method.
Manage Kube-DC organization groups and RBAC — create OrganizationGroup resources to map user groups to Kubernetes roles per project. Note that user management is UI-only (Keycloak).
Manage Kube-DC managed Kubernetes clusters — scale worker pools, upgrade versions, access kubeconfig, and monitor status. Covers day-2 operations via kubectl patch.
Manage Kube-DC networking resources — create External IPs (EIp), Floating IPs (FIp), and understand VPC networking. Includes decision guide for choosing between EIP and FIP.
Manage Kube-DC storage resources — create S3 buckets (ObjectBucketClaim), DataVolumes for VMs, and PersistentVolumeClaims for containers.
SSH into a Kube-DC virtual machine using the project's auto-generated SSH keypair. Covers extracting keys, finding VM IP, and connecting via internal IP or external FIP/EIP.
Use the kube-dc CLI for authentication, context switching, and namespace management. Covers login, use, ns, config, and kubectl integration.
Check organization and project resource quota usage before deploying workloads. Covers org-level quota (CPU, memory, storage, pods, public IPv4, object storage) and per-project usage via Organization and Project status fields. Use this before creating VMs, apps, databases, clusters, or EIPs to avoid quota-exceeded errors.

Overview
Kube-DC bridges the gap between traditional virtualization and modern container orchestration, allowing you to run both legacy workloads and cloud-native applications on the same platform. By leveraging Kubernetes as the foundation, Kube-DC inherits its robust ecosystem while extending functionality to support enterprise requirements.
Kube-DC provides organizations with a unified management interface for all their infrastructure needs, from multi-tenancy and virtualization to networking and billing.
Key Features
Multi-Tenancy
- Multiple Organizations: Host multiple organizations with complete isolation
- Custom SSO Integration: Configure various identity providers (Google, Microsoft, GitHub, etc.)
- Hierarchical Group Management: Create and manage groups with permission inheritance
- Flexible RBAC: Assign fine-grained permissions to specific resources
Unified Workload Management
- VMs and Containers: Deploy and manage both from a single interface
- Project Isolation: Complete network and resource isolation between projects
- Resource Quotas: Set limits on CPU, memory, storage per project
- Custom Templates: Create and use templates for quick deployment
Advanced Networking
- VPC per Project: Each project gets its own virtual network
- VLAN Support: Connect to physical infrastructure
- Software-Defined Networking: Create overlay networks
- Network Peering: Connect project networks
- External IP Assignment: Assign public IPs to services
- Load Balancer Integration: Manage load balancers for services
Enterprise Virtualization
- KubeVirt Integration: Enterprise-grade VM capabilities
- Live Migration: Move VMs between nodes without downtime
- GPU Passthrough: Full GPU access for VMs
- Storage Integration: Connect to enterprise storage systems
- VM Import/Export: Import existing VMs from other platforms
Infrastructure as Code
- Kubernetes-Native APIs: Use familiar Kubernetes patterns
- GitOps Compatible: Works with Flux, ArgoCD
- Terraform Provider: Infrastructure as code with Terraform
- Custom Resources: Define and manage resources with CRDs
- Programmatic Control: RESTful APIs for automation
Integrated Billing
- Resource Tracking: Monitor resource usage across projects
- Cost Allocation: Assign costs to organizations and projects
- Flexible Pricing Models: Implement custom pricing
- Billing Reports: Generate detailed billing reports
- Budget Controls: Set spending limits and alerts
Managed Services Platform
- Database as a Service: Deploy and manage databases
- Storage Services: Provide managed storage options
- AI/ML Infrastructure: Deploy specialized infrastructure
- Service Catalog: Deploy from pre-configured templates
- Lifecycle Management: Automated backups and updates
Use Cases
For Enterprise IT
- Run legacy VMs alongside modern containers
- Implement chargeback models for departmental resource usage
- Provide self-service infrastructure while maintaining governance
- Reduce operational costs by consolidating platforms
For Service Providers
- Offer multi-tenant infrastructure with complete isolation
- Provide value-added services beyond basic IaaS
- Implement flexible billing based on actual resource usage
- Support diverse customer workloads on a single platform
For DevOps Teams
- Unify VM and container management workflows
- Implement infrastructure as code for all resources
- Integrate with existing CI/CD pipelines
- Enable developer self-service while maintaining control
