Bedrock is a set of automation, tooling, and infrastructue stacks for deploying production-level Kubernetes clusters with a secure and auditable GitOps workflow.
This project is our humble attempt to combine the collective wisdom of our cloud native community for building best practice cloud native Kubernetes clusters, based on real world experience of deploying and operating cloud native applications.
Bedrock, by default, includes the workflow, platforms, and tools that we believe are the best in class for operating a Kubernetes cluster. It includes Terraform scripts for creating the core infrastructure for your cluster and also, by default, includes a cloud native set of observability infrastructure via a set of "batteries removable" Fabrikate stacks.
