Our Story

Incubated by EastBanc Technologies, a technology agnostic custom- software development firm working with Kubernetes since its inception, Kublr was launched in 2016. Continuously addressing the same challenges while helping customers transition to containers and Kubernetes, we developed a set of best practices and engineering solutions to simplify containers and Kubernetes implementation in our projects. With no ready-to-use solution on the market that met the strict requirements of our customers, we saw ourselves recreating the wheel over and over again. We decided to bundle all that know-how and best practices into a platform built specifically with enterprise needs in mind.

Because we always leveraged open-source, cloud-native technologies in our client work, that approach is ingrained in our team’s DNA. Committed to keeping the open-source promise, the Kublr Platform is designed to remain flexible and extensible. While fully preconfigured to speed up adoption, every aspect can be customized—Kubernetes being the only constant.
