How it Works

Define your Testing Strategy

1

Integrate our Actions or CLI into your CI process to create the matrix of environments you need to test.

2

Choose combinations of distros, versions and configurations.

3

Set up your own smoke tests, policy tests, release tests, and canary tests on the provisioned infrastructure.

Provision Cloud Resources Instantly

1

Supports EKS, AKS, GKE, Openshift, kind, k3s, kURL distros and recent versions of Kubernetes (i.e. 1.28, 1.27, 1.26, etc).

2

Leverage our warm pools of environments , most clusters provision in under 2 minutes.

3

Each cluster is validated for conformance to prevent flaky environments.

See All Your Customer Environments

1

Leverage Instance Insights to see what your customers are actually running.

2

Set up telemetry with the Replicated SDK in your app to stay informed on real world adoption and patterns.

3

Identify the right set of matrix permutations based on what customers are actually using in production.

Run Any Tests You Want

1

You'll have full control of the cluster to install CRDs, add-ons, charts etc.

2

Build your own test plans for compatibility, readiness, stability, and load handling.

3

Explore a simple configuration, end-to-end configurations, or a matrix of combinations.

See your anticipated monthly spend.

The Compatibility Matrix can test across 65,981+ unique configuration combinations.

This calculator uses an average price per node of $0.46 hr, which for example would be Amazon EKS m6i.2xlarge (8 vCPUs, 32 GiB memory). Price will vary depending on nodes selected. For more detailed pricing information, visit Compatibility Matrix Platform Pricing.

How it helps

Business benefits

  • Build confidence with your customers

  • Reduce costs and effort to test

  • Increase install success rates

  • Reduce support incidents in the field

  • Reduce risk in diverse environments

Technical benefits

  • Spin up environments on-demand

  • Identify version incompatibilities

  • Test more comprehensively

  • Automate common tests to reduce effort

  • No more flakey environments

Measurable impact

Improve success rate for new installs by testing on all your supported operating systems. Improve upgrade success rate by ensuring your new releases work in all currently-operating customer environments. Increase developer throughput, confidence, and quality by running more tests, more often, in less time.

Analyst Review

The ability to quickly test compatibility of releases across diverse customer-representative environments is especially powerful, as the long-tail combination of possible versions and environments often remains untested.

Testing Releases in Customer-representative Environments

Automatically test your new releases on truly customer-representative environments—same cloud provider, same Kubernetes distribution and version, and even the same entitlements and configuration.

Helm alone is not enough (for commercial software distribution)

We love Helm! But, using just Helm for commercial software distribution can only take you so far. Luckily, Replicated's new features perfectly complement Helm to supercharge your deployments.

Introducing the Replicated SDK (beta)

With the Replicated SDK, vendors can now get an overview of how well their software is performing and how often it's being used. They can even set notifications based on these metrics, down to the instance level for particularly sensitive customers.
