Weaveworks

CEO: Alexis Richardson

London-based Weaveworks looks to make it easier to run Kubernetes everywhere.

Weave Kubernetes Platform addresses that challenge with the capability to deploy and operate clusters on multiple compute substrates—the installer can launch clusters on bare-metal, virtualized instances and managed Kubernetes services from the public cloud giants.

The GitOps-enabled capability allows users to define a “model” for the cluster, then the system can translate those definitions to specific implementations for each back-end environment.

The core technology comes from the Cluster Management Kubernetes SIG, which provides a standard API for the installer system.
