  1. ubicloud

    Open source alternative to AWS. Elastic compute, block storage (non replicated), firewall and load balancer, managed Postgres, K8s, AI inference, and IAM services.

    Project mention: Ubicloud vs Spinifex: Two Approaches to Open Source Cloud | dev.to | 2026-09-01

    Ubicloud is a YC-backed open source cloud platform written in Ruby. It provides elastic compute via virtual machines, block storage (non-replicated), virtual networking with firewalls and load balancers, managed Postgres with automatic backups and point-in-time restore, Kubernetes, GitHub Actions runner integration, AI inference, and attribute-based access control. You can self-host it on bare metal from providers like Hetzner or Leaseweb, or use their managed service which runs on the same bare metal providers and handles the operational overhead for you.

  3. canine

    A developer friendly PaaS for your Kubernetes

    Project mention: Ask HN: What are you working on? (September 2026) | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-09-06

    I've been slowly working on https://github.com/CanineHQ/canine for about 2 years now. Basically a self hosted, FOSS that turns a Kubernetes cluster into something as easy to use as Heroku.

    It was a pain point from a start up I cofounded before where we needed Kubernetes flexibility but developers hated using it. I figured there was no reason why it had to be hard to use and thus Canine was born.

  4. krane

    A command-line tool that helps you ship changes to a Kubernetes namespace and understand the result

  5. manageiq

    ManageIQ Open-Source Management Platform

  6. krane

    Kubernetes RBAC static analysis & visualisation tool (by appvia)

  7. cuber-gem

    An open-source automation tool that simplifies the deployment of your apps on Kubernetes.

    Project mention: I Am Building a Cloud | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-04-22

    Kubernetes is not bad, it's just low level. Most applications share the exact same needs (proof: you could run any web app on a simple platform like Heroku). That's why some years ago I built an open source tool (with 0 dependencies) that simplify Kubernetes deployments with a compact syntax which works well for 99% of web apps (instead of allowing any configuration, it makes many "opinionated" choices): https://github.com/cuber-cloud/cuber-gem I have been using it for all the company web apps and web services for years and everything works nicely. It can also auto scale easily and that allows us to manage huge spikes of traffic for web push (Pushpad) at a reasonable price (good luck if you used a VM - no scaling - or if you used a PaaS - very high costs).

  8. hairpin-proxy

    PROXY protocol support for internal-to-LoadBalancer traffic for Kubernetes Ingress users. If you've had problems with ingress-nginx, cert-manager, LetsEncrypt ACME HTTP01 self-check failures, and the PROXY protocol, read on.
