Kuboard Press
Kuboard-press is a visual management interface for Kubernetes clusters that enables the orchestration of workloads and system objects without manual text file editing. It provides a centralized dashboard for importing and monitoring multiple clusters, using a visual interface to manage namespaces and containerized workloads.
The project differentiates itself through hierarchical microservices visualization, which maps flat cluster workloads into a layered structure to represent architectural relationships. It also includes dedicated container operation tools for accessing logs, opening interactive terminals, and transferring files between local machines and running pods.
The platform covers a broad operational surface, including resource monitoring for CPU and memory usage, centralized log aggregation with request-based debugging, and granular access control mapped to specific namespaces. It further supports identity management through external directory synchronization and administrative action auditing.
The system supports high availability through multi-instance deployments backed by external databases and distributed caching.

- Container Terminal and Log Access - Provides an interface to access logs, open interactive terminals, and transfer files to running containers.
- Distributed Memory Caches - Implements a distributed memory cache to improve response times and ensure high availability.
- High Availability Deployments - Maintains continuous service availability using multi-instance deployments with distributed caching and external databases.
- Visualizers - Organizes containerized workloads into hierarchical layer views to visualize the architectural structure of microservices.
- Multi-Instance Deployments - Supports high availability by running multiple application replicas backed by a shared external database.
- Identity Synchronization - Synchronizes user account data between external identity providers and the local system via webhooks.
- External Identity Provider Integration - Integrates with external identity providers to synchronize and manage user identities.
- Webhook Authentication Integrations - Verifies usernames and passwords during login by connecting to external identity stores via webhooks.
- Identity Synchronization - Automates the provisioning and synchronization of user identities from external directories.
- Architecture Visualizers - Maps flat cluster workloads into a hierarchical layered view to represent the architectural relationship of microservices.
- Container Health Monitors - Aggregates deployment history, events, and container information on a single page to assess workload health.
- Threshold-Based Alerters - Triggers notifications via email or messaging apps when infrastructure resource metrics exceed predefined thresholds.
- Request-Scoped Log Context - Links unique request identifiers to log entries to track execution flows across services.
- Request Tracing Tools - Isolates specific execution paths by assigning unique identifiers to requests and filtering aggregated logs by those IDs.
