Banzai: Deployment Automation and Execution Engine for Kubernetes and Istio

An Intellyx Brain Candy Brief

Trying to deploy Kubernetes at scale? It doesn’t take long trying to assemble and configure the various open source components of a complete Kubernetes deployment to realize that the job is more complicated and difficult than you might have believed.

Banzai Cloud is here to help. It offers Kubernetes cluster management, application management, and ops automation in a single tool that works across multiple flavors of Kubernetes as well as hybrid and multi-cloud scenarios. With Banzai, setting up and running Kubernetes is simpler and easier for both newcomers to the platform as well as more seasoned personnel.

Banzai also offers a similar product for Istio, the most popular service mesh technology for Kubernetes. Banzai both simplifies Istio deployment and operations, and also provides a slick dashboard for visualizing service mesh deployments at scale.

Banzai has taken special care to support Kafka and Spark-based applications, and can also help organizations lower cloud costs by managing the risks inherent in spot cloud instances.
