Our Managed Application Platform brings together the tools and proven practices you need for cloud native CI/CD. It helps you deploy production workloads to Kubernetes securely, consistently and efficiently.
Choose between a fully managed platform hosted on our infrastructure and an in-house solution running on your own Kubernetes cluster.

As infrastructure grows, deployment processes often become increasingly difficult to manage. Teams use different tools and workflows, while manual steps create extra coordination and slow down software delivery.
Our Managed Application Platform provides a consistent path from code to production. Standardised processes, automated deployments and a shared platform reduce complexity and help your teams release software faster.
Code is committed to a Git repository with complete version history and traceability.
Production proven CI/CD pipelines built on over ten years of operational experience include secret scanning, SAST, image builds, Trivy scans, and image signing.
The verified and signed container image is securely stored in the Harbor registry.
The CI/CD pipeline updates the Kustomization manifest with the new container image tag.
A GitLab webhook triggers ArgoCD to automatically synchronize the application with the development cluster.
The application is automatically deployed to the development cluster for initial verification after the merge.
After all tests have passed, manual approval releases the version to production.
Teams often build their own GitLab or GitHub pipelines, making it difficult to establish shared standards and proven practices. Over time, maintenance, traceability and compliance requirements such as ISO certifications can become harder to manage.
Manual deployments increase the risk of errors and outages. They also make it harder to establish secure, traceable release processes, while security issues may only become visible late in the delivery process.
Without a central overview, it can be difficult to see which application version is running in each environment or whether it has passed the required security checks. This also makes it harder to provide the information needed for governance and audits.
Without a central registry and clear guidelines, it is often unclear which container images are being used, where they come from, and whether they are secure. A lack of checks and standards increases risk and makes it more difficult to meet compliance requirements.
Developers spend valuable time maintaining pipelines, webhooks and deployment logic. That leaves less time for application development and makes it harder to implement security requirements and shared standards consistently.
GitOps becomes difficult to scale without clear rules for repositories, roles and deployment processes. Security and governance controls then require more manual effort and may be applied inconsistently.
Tell us about the challenges you are currently facing, and we will show you how our Managed Application Platform can simplify your CI/CD, GitOps and deployment processes while improving security and consistency.
Together, we will identify opportunities for improvement and explore practical options for your Kubernetes environment.

Our Managed Application Platform combines CI/CD pipelines, GitOps with Argo CD or Flux CD, Harbor as a container registry and integrated security checks.
The platform is based on practices developed over more than ten years of working with business-critical production environments and large-scale data centre infrastructures. It provides a consistent foundation for reproducible deployments and traceable changes while reducing the time your teams spend maintaining the underlying toolchain.
Preconfigured CI/CD pipelines and GitOps workflows create a standard path from commit to deployment. This reduces manual work, prevents teams from having to maintain different processes and makes application deployments repeatable across multiple Kubernetes clusters.
The CI/CD pipeline checks your code using SAST and secret scanning. Container images are automatically scanned for vulnerabilities and signed with Cosign.
These checks are built directly into the development process, providing a controlled foundation for deploying verified container images.
Argo CD provides a central view of both the desired and actual state of your applications. This makes it easier to identify discrepancies and understand which versions are running in each environment.
CloudPirates handles the operation, updates and best-practice configuration of the platform components, freeing your teams from the day-to-day maintenance of the CI/CD and GitOps toolchain.
