In their own words

Cloudforet

Cloudforet is an open-source platform for centralized management of public and private clouds. It is self-hosted and uses inventory collector plugins to gather assets and scan resources across connected cloud accounts. The platform lists infrastructure as code, batch remote commands and an application catalog for software such as databases and middleware. Cost features include billing analysis, resource optimization and budget management; incident tools include real-time notifications and post-mortem features. Projects and project groups organize resources, while role-based access controls user access. Cloud service plugins are listed for AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, with stated coverage also including Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and Alibaba Cloud. Monitoring and notification integrations include CloudWatch, Azure Monitor, Google Cloud monitoring, Zabbix, Grafana, Slack, Telegram and email. Authentication options include local credentials, Google OAuth2, Active Directory and Keycloak. Cloudforet is free, with community support through GitHub Discussions. Its Minikube installation guide is for developers, not production.
