Despite the interesting and seemingly unrelated word choice, Replicated has not decided to move into the home improvement space – though there may be […]

Delivering Kubernetes Apps to Non-Kubernetes Users

KOTS is awesome if your clients are already running K8s – but what about the ones who haven’t fully been caught up in the K8s wave yet and are ready to make the jump? Well, the Replicated Vendor Portal offers a solution for that, using another Replicated product named kURL. We’ll definitely talk more about kURL in later blogs, but for now the TL;DR of what kURL is, is that it’s a custom Kubernetes distribution builder and installer that uses a cURL one-liner to build out a cluster. For this specific use case, KOTS is combined with kURL to install Kubernetes, then install your application all in one go.

kURL with Replicated KOTS

kURL is an open source project from Replicated that allows anyone to create a custom Kubernetes distro. One of the primary use cases of kURL is for distributing Kubernetes with an application or Helm chart to an enterprise customer who doesn’t have an existing cluster.

KOTS Demo Video

We recently recorded a demo of installing a Kubernetes Off-The-Shelf (KOTS) application as a private instance. In this video we play the role of both application vendor and enterprise IT admin, so you have to follow along closely to catch some of the nuance of the demo.

Replicated Multi-channel Licenses

All Replicated instances are installed with a single license file. The license file is connected to a release channel, and the installation will receive updates when a new release is promoted to that channel. This process has worked pretty well so far and continues to be the best option for most installations.

Custom Branding for the Dashboard

With the release of Replicated 1.2.73 you can now customize the look & feel of the dashboard of your on-prem customer experience. To get started visit the vendor portal app settings page. Branding is staged by channel, so that you can test your branding before shipping it to customers.
