Multi-tenancy and policy framework for Kubernetes clusters

About Capsule

Capsule is an open-source framework designed to enable multi-tenancy and policy-based management within Kubernetes environments. It allows enterprises to share a single Kubernetes cluster across multiple teams, groups, or departments, reducing operational overhead and simplifying resource governance. By leveraging Kubernetes Admission Controllers, Capsule enforces security best practices and policy compliance natively without adding extra management layers or custom binaries.

Intended for large organizations managing complex Kubernetes deployments, Capsule empowers developers with self-service capabilities to provision cluster resources within predefined boundaries. Its declarative, GitOps-ready approach ensures seamless integration into existing DevOps workflows, enhancing governance while maintaining a native Kubernetes experience. As a CNCF Sandbox project, Capsule aligns with cloud-native standards, making it a strategic choice for enterprises seeking scalable, secure multi-tenancy in cloud infrastructure.

Backup & Disaster Recovery

Evaluate Veeam, Commvault, Rubrik, Cohesity, Dell PowerProtect, and Druva against your real RTO and RPO targets — with ransomware resilience, not backup windows, as the deciding criterion.

Cloud Cost Management & FinOps

Compare IBM Apptio Cloudability, VMware Tanzu CloudHealth (Broadcom), Flexera One, Harness, Finout, Zesty, and Vantage on the question this category actually turns on — not whether a dashboard is pretty, but whether shared-cost allocation is accurate, committed-use buying is optimized, and engineering acts on the recommendations.

Cloud Infrastructure & IaaS

Compare AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, IBM Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, and DigitalOcean on the one thing the pricing calculator hides — egress, support-tier costs, committed-use discounts, and lock-in — not the on-demand compute rate the demo shows you.
