What it is
Skyhook is a Kubernetes platform for generating deployment workflows, manifests, and GitOps connections while developers retain their repository and cloud account. It creates GitHub Actions workflows and Kubernetes manifests for services deployed to Kubernetes. Developers can deploy through the CLI, API, or web UI, with preview environments, canary deployments, and auto-scaling. It supports AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI, on-premises environments, and customer-provided Kubernetes clusters. Integrations include GitHub authentication and ArgoCD-based GitOps automation, with Kubernetes addons such as cert-manager and nginx-ingress. Observability capabilities include logs, metrics, traces, and FinOps. The Skyhook Agent can answer questions about services and clusters, assist with deployment troubleshooting, and suggest configurations and practices. Its cluster connector reads Kubernetes resources and service logs, does not access secrets, and only deletes ephemeral namespaces. The Free plan costs nothing and covers up to 3 Git-connected users, 3 services, and 1 cluster.
