Runtime Extension Platform

23REP provides an enterprise-class platform for deploying runtime extensions based on serverless and microservices for extending applications. It is built on top of Kyma and can be deployed on any existing Kubernetes cluster. It comes equipped with a lot out-of-the-box functionalities like an Istio-based service mesh, or built-in monitoring, tracing, and logging based on Grafana, Prometheus, Jaeger, Loki, and Kiali.

For 23REP, we offer bundles of services for specific domains, like data processing, high-performance computing (HPC), blockchain, or internet of things (IoT). Provided with best practices and good standard configurations, these are well prepared for productive usage.

Enterprise-class Kubernetes Engine

23KE is an enterprise-class Kubernetes engine for industrial use cases as well as cloud service providers. Its strength is its focus on Kubernetes itself. It focuses on scalability, reliability, and self-healing of Kubernetes clusters. No bloatware with tons of features on top that only a few or no one needs and only exist for themselves. This enables 23KE to achieve a high production grade.

Based on the open source project Gardener it offers Kubernetes Clusters as a Service at scale. With a lot out-of-the-box functionalities for the daily operations routine of the Kubernetes clusters.

In the document Digitale Souveränität – Status quo und Handlungsfelder by the Deutschen Akademie der Technikwissenschaften (acatech) the Gardener project, the core of 23KE, is listed as a key building block in Gaia-X for the new Infrastructure as a Service layer in the digital sovereignty layer model.
