firstkube: Your control center for Kubernetes applications

Kubernetes (short: K8s) is a widely used open-source system for easy management of container applications. Our practical management platform firstkube supports you in using K8s.

The practical management platform for Kubernetes applications

Is your software development team already using a container-based deployment model for application development, or are you planning to adopt one in the future? If so, our firstkube platform is the perfect solution for you.

Users have, in regards to Kubernetes, very different needs.. firstcolo meets you exactly where you are and provides you with the best possible support through firstkube. As a user of firstkube, you can access all necessary services required for the installation and management of Kubernetes clusters centrally through a graphical user interface (GUI).

Simple updates for clusters or services, which can be executed centrally in the interface with just a few clicks, are easy to perform independently and intuitively. Also hybrid and multi-cloud concepts are easily controllable through a central management interface, and clusters can be provisioned both in the firstcloud and with various cloud providers. In addition, firstkube offers through horizontal and vertical scaling a dynamic adjustment of resources as demand increases or decreases.

Simplified Kubernetes Orchestration with firstkube.

firstkube combines multiple IT systems regardless of the respective deployment model in a central web interface. This provides SaaS providers with simple deployment, automation, and multi-cloud orchestration from a single tool.

firstkube is ideal for users who rely on a modern and clustered MACH architecture (Microservices, API-first, Cloud-native, Headless).

Even for so-called Container-Starters”, who want to start containerization as quickly as possible but lack the expertise or capacity for the initial setup and maintenance of the underlying Kubernetes infrastructure, firstkube is perfectly suited.

firstkube offers three tailored models: Core, Advanced, and Enterprise. The Core model provides direct access to the administration and deployment of your clusters, giving you full control. The Advanced model takes care of the entire setup and administration for you, includes 24/7 support, and enables global deployment. The Enterprise package builds on the features of the other models, adding the highest security standards and comprehensive consulting services

firstkube: Frequently Asked Questions

Would you like to learn more about firstkube and Kubernetes? We’re happy to advise you! Here are some frequently asked questions:

Kubernetes (ancient Greek for "helmsman") is an open-source orchestration system. It enables the automated placement of containers and serves as a platform for the deployment and operation of various applications within these containers.
You can read more about this topic here: Kubernetes - Revolution in Enterprise IT?

Containers are essentially "vessels". Such a vessel can store an application, including all its dependencies, in isolation. The result is a so-called container image, which holds the application in its entirety while maintaining the smallest possible size.

Containers require fewer computing resources than traditional virtual machines and ensure that applications are far more independent of the underlying environment.

firstkube connects your existing Kubernetes clusters with the public cloud provider of your choice to our first-class private cloud offerings. This allows you to benefit from the scalability and flexibility of the public cloud and from the security and unrestricted performance of the private cloud.
