Terranetes' inclusion in the CNCF Landscape marks a significant step in its journey, positioning it as a crucial tool for organisations looking to simplify and enhance their Kubernetes operations.
Terranetes, an open-source tool by Appvia, has officially joined the CNCF Landscape, highlighting its significant contribution to the Kubernetes ecosystem. This milestone underscores Appvia’s commitment to delivering robust cloud-native technologies that empower organisations to manage infrastructure efficiently and at scale. By being recognised in the CNCF Landscape, Terranetes is validated as a key player in the field of provisioning and automation, providing a critical solution for managing Terraform and OpenTofu resources within Kubernetes.
The terranetes controller manages the life-cycle of terraform resources defined and built inside Kubernetes. This allows teams running workloads inside the cluster to self-serve application dependencies and reuse the wealth of terraform modules already written.
There's a number of open source controllers you could use that will run Terraform in Kubernetes. All of them deliver the developer outcome, however, none address the "consequences" of delivering that outcome in the first place; the risks, costs, security implications, the general lack of checks and balances.
What sets the Terranetes controller apart is its opinion that you first enable the platform team to deliver the outcome in a safe environment before it can be self-served by developers. Providing platform engineers with all the knobs, dials and levers to control and mitigate those risks is the key differentiator for Terranetes controller. It features:
Terranetes is open-source, and its codebase, along with comprehensive documentation, is available on GitHub. Appvia invites developers, DevOps engineers, and cloud-native enthusiasts to explore, use, and contribute to the project.
