Hands-on PlatformOps with Krateo: from Kubernetes cluster to a composable, AI-assisted platform - Pt.2

Back to Schedule

Abstract

If you've ever tried to build an internal platform, you know how quickly it turns into a patchwork of tools that barely talk to each other — CI/CD systems, IaC frameworks, service catalogs, custom automation, all loosely connected.

Krateo takes a different approach: a composable platform engine where any resource, on any infrastructure, becomes a building block you can define, reuse and orchestrate.

In this workshop we'll walk you through it hands-on — install it on a Kubernetes cluster, write a real composition to understand how the model works under the hood, and see how infrastructure, services and workflows become reusable building blocks.

Then we'll bring in Autopilot, Krateo's AI layer. Not just to answer questions about the platform, but to actually configure it — and generate a working portal configuration starting from a single image.

We designed this flow intentionally: get your hands dirty with the fundamentals first, then let the automation show you what becomes possible.

No slides. Just terminal, browser, and examples we've prepared to make the most of the three hours together.

Krateo PlatformOps is an open-source platform that enables the creation of any resource on any infrastructure—be it a K8s cluster, microservice, pipeline, or database. If it’s describable via a YAML file, Krateo has you covered.

Key capabilities:

  • Cross-Infrastructure Provisioning: Create resources both inside and outside the Kubernetes cluster.
  • Service-Centric Management: Frees users from cluster management overhead to focus entirely on service delivery.
  • Centralized Control Plane: Monitor everything from CI/CD pipelines to Jira tickets in a single dashboard. No more dashboard-hopping!
