In their own words
Juju
Juju is Canonical’s open source orchestration engine for deploying, connecting and managing application lifecycles with charms. A charm packages reusable business logic to automate parts of an application’s life. Juju treats application integrations as part of lifecycle management and can manage software across public clouds, Kubernetes, virtual machines and bare metal. It can apply networking and configuration changes between applications even when they run on different clouds. Charmhub is a curated marketplace with charms for tools such as PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Kafka, Kubeflow, Apache Spark, Prometheus, Grafana, Loki, Vault, Traefik and Landscape. For enterprise use, JAAS provides a central control plane that can manage hundreds of Juju controllers. It adds fine-grained access controls, auditing and support for external identity providers through OIDC and single sign-on in the CLI and web dashboard. JAAS also has a graphical administration and monitoring dashboard. Juju is free and open source; listed platforms include Linux, macOS, Windows, API and self-hosted environments.
