An API-first service for creating and managing Kubernetes clusters quickly across GCP, AWS, and Azure.
Astrobase is an API-first service that enables developers to quickly create and manage Kubernetes clusters across Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Microsoft Azure. It solves the problem of managing reproducible environments across different cloud providers by providing a simple, consistent interface without requiring users to learn complex domain-specific languages.
Developers and DevOps engineers who need to create and manage reproducible Kubernetes environments across multiple cloud providers, particularly those shipping software to customers using different cloud infrastructures.
Developers choose Astrobase because it offers a straightforward, API-first approach to multi-cloud Kubernetes management, avoiding the steep learning curve of other infrastructure tools while enabling seamless testing across cloud environments with access to substantial cloud credits.
Create kubernetes clusters quickly on GCP, AWS, or Azure.

Astrobase provides a consistent API for creating clusters across GCP, AWS, and Azure, allowing developers to write custom client code without learning provider-specific tools, as emphasized in the API-first approach.
By concentrating solely on Kubernetes, it streamlines deployment workflows and avoids the complexity of general-purpose infrastructure tools, aligning with its 'Kubernetes First' philosophy.
The README demonstrates that a basic cluster can be created in about five minutes with short YAML definitions, reducing the learning curve compared to DSL-based tools.
Enables seamless testing across different cloud providers, leveraging over $300,000 in credits for development and validation, as highlighted in the 'Scale across clouds' feature.
Astrobase does not support provisioning other cloud resources, forcing teams to use additional tools for complete infrastructure management, which contradicts broader IaC needs.
The README shows that deploying EKS clusters requires extra steps like managing IAM roles and subnet IDs, which can be error-prone and time-consuming, unlike the simpler GCP example.
Requires running an Astrobase server locally or in the cloud, adding operational complexity compared to CLI-only tools, as seen in the deployment instructions.
