What they do

Problem

Running services on Kubernetes is complex and requires significant DevOps/platform engineering effort to manage and provide a good developer experience.

Solution

Skyhook provides a Heroku-like, PaaS-style internal developer platform on top of a customer's Kubernetes cluster in their cloud, with built-in best practices and golden paths.

Who it's for

Companies running Kubernetes—especially growing teams and their developers—who want to deploy and operate services without hiring dedicated infrastructure engineers.
