Announcing General Availability of Nova

Kubernetes Fleet Management drains staff and cloud OpEx for Enterprises. Nova was built to eliminate fleet management so that Infrastructure teams can consume the fleet as a single super cluster instead of a constellation of special snowflakes. Elotl is proud to announce General Availability of Nova at KubeCon Chicago! 

“Utilizing Nova allows us to offer easy to manage Kubernetes cluster fleets and helps our customers enjoy our carbon-negative cloud while getting the most out of their multi-cloud, multi-cluster deployments.”, said Jegor Van Opdorp, CTO and co-founder of leading European cloud provider Leafcloud.

Nova’s God’s eye-view of cluster fleet empowers IT Operators to automate High Availability and Disaster Recovery of valuable Enterprise workloads like databases. “Disaster Recovery of PostgreSQL clusters is critical for business continuity in the face of widespread outages taking down entire data centers or cloud provider regions. Nova presents the opportunity to automate the DR setup as well as the failure detection and failover which can dramatically reduce RTO and improve availability for end-users.”, said Sergey Pronin, Group Product Manager of Percona. 

With Nova, workload mobility across regions, across cloud providers and kubernetes distributions becomes a first class feature of Kubernetes. “Cloudbursting workloads across datacenters is a dream I have heard developers and SREs talk about for more than fifteen years. Cloudbursting is fundamentally a hard problem with a number of nuances. Nova presents potential for users of containerized applications to realize that dream sooner”, said Sid Shaik, Head of Product for Private Cloud Data Services at Cloudera.
