Skyhook
What it is
Skyhook is a Kubernetes platform that generates deployment workflows, manifests, and GitOps wiring while customers keep their own repository and cloud account. It creates GitHub Actions workflows and Kubernetes manifests for services, with deployment available through a CLI, API, or web interface. Developers can use preview environments, canary deployments, and auto-scaling. Skyhook supports AWS, GCP, Azure, OCI, on-premises environments, and customer-provided Kubernetes clusters. Its documented integrations include GitHub authentication and GitOps automation with ArgoCD, alongside Kubernetes addons such as cert-manager and nginx-ingress. Documentation lists logs, metrics, traces, and FinOps capabilities. The Skyhook Agent can answer questions about services and clusters, help investigate deployment problems, and suggest configurations. The cluster connector reads Kubernetes resources and service logs; it does not access secrets and only modifies resources to delete ephemeral namespaces. The free plan allows up to 3 Git-connected users, 3 services, and 1 cluster, with self-onboarding. Premium costs $1 a month and supports up to 10 users, 15 services, and 5 clusters, with professional onboarding and 24/5 email and chat support.
