Groundbreaking KubeSphere Enterprise
Open, extensible, and freely integrated

Groundbreaking KubeSphere Enterprise is open, extensible, and freely integrated

KubeSphere Enterprise (KSE) 4.1 is a new cloud-native operating system built by QingCloud Technologies, which has extraordinary epoch-making significance for KubeSphere. Based on the open and extensible architecture of KubeSphere LuBan, KubeSphere Enterprise 4.1 can easily achieve upstream and downstream linkage of applications, integrate various high-quality extensions from KubeSphere Marketplace anytime, and provide seamless business capabilities and highly consistent product experience.

Using KubeSphere LuBan, From Zero to Hero

LuBan, the ancestor of Chinese ancient craftsmen, is a symbol of the wisdom and creativity of the people.
KubeSphere LuBan is a distributed, cloud-native, open and extensible architecture that provides extensions with a hot-swappable microkernel.
Hope that through KubeSphere LuBan, enterprises and developers can get a professional, versatile, flexible and highly creative development and user experience.
Since then, all functional components of KubeSphere will be based on KubeSphere LuBan, seamlessly integrated into the KubeSphere console in the form of extensions, and maintained independently. Back-end APIs and front-end projects of any third-party extensions can be dynamically embedded into KubeSphere, making a real plug-and-play application-level cloud-native operating system.

One-stack transformation and upgrade of cloud native
All-in-one DevOps, out-of-the-box Service Mesh, containerized database, global resource observability, virtualization management, AI & cloud-edge collaboration... In cloud-native scenarios, the selection, promotion, application, operation and maintenance of technical solutions for each module have introduced a lot of difficulties to enterprises, KubeSphere Enterprise has a solid self-developed ecosystem and meets all expectations of a full-stack cloud-native foundation.
Highly free scenario-based expansion
Based on KubeSphere LuBan, KubeSphere Enterprise supports hot plugging of the front-end UI and back-end API of applications, and the hot updating and hot repair of the front end and back end. Public methods can be reused, and the API supports dynamic registration. Users can flexibly and seamlessly integrate third-party operation logic or workflow into a unified control plane, thereby rapidly innovating scenario-based expansion capabilities.
KubeSphere Marketplace, cloud-native kaleidoscope
KubeSphere Enterprise has the comprehensive KubeSphere Marketplace in it. Users can install extensions with one click and customize their operating systems in a block-building manner. What's more, users can make full life cycle operations for extensions in one stop, such as development and distribution, installation and upgrade, import and export, build and management.
