Operationalized Platform Engineering
kubriX accelerates software delivery by providing a curated, opinionated Internal Developer Platform built on proven open-source components. It enables platform teams to build, operate, and evolve an IDP that scales with their organization - without starting from scratch.
Platform Engineering by Design
Boost developer productivity with proven Platform Engineering principles and clear, standardized paths to production
Low-Config Kubernetes Deployment
Deploy kubriX with minimal configuration and get Day-1 and Day-2 operations out of the box
Scalable Kubernetes Platform
Scale reliably from startups to enterprises with predictable operations and cost efficiency
Cloud-Agnostic by Default
Run consistently across cloud providers and on-premise environments using the same workflows and controls
The Problem
Cloud-native adoption often fails because teams underestimate the operational complexity of Kubernetes
Platform Engineering addresses these challenges by standardizing workflows, reducing cognitive load, and enabling secure self-service - without slowing teams down.
High cognitive load
Kubernetes complexity and growing toolchains slow teams down.
Missing Golden Paths
Teams reinvent workflows and security patterns, leading to inconsistent delivery.
Ecosystem churn
Rapid ecosystem evolution makes it hard to stay secure and compatible.
Built for trust, built for Europe
kubriX is designed for organizations that take compliance, sovereignty, and the future of AI seriously.
100% Open Source
Licensed under Apache 2.0 and built entirely on proven CNCF projects - ArgoCD, Backstage, Crossplane, Grafana, and more. No hidden components, no proprietary lock-in. You own your platform, forever.
Made in Europe
Developed and maintained by suXess-it in Austria. kubriX runs on European cloud infrastructure - metalstack.cloud, StackIT, IONOS, OVHcloud and many more, fully on-premise or in the cloud. Your data stays where you decide.
DSGVO & NIS2 Ready
Built with EU data sovereignty in mind from day one. Ships with Policy-as-Code, identity management, and audit logging aligned with DSGVO and NIS2 requirements - without costly compliance retrofits.
AI-Agent Ready
Designed as an AI-native platform from the ground up - supporting AI-assisted platform operations, AI workloads, and agentic workflows. kubriX is ready for the next generation of AI-driven applications and services.
From Zero to IDP in Three Steps
No year-long projects. No armies of consultants. Just install, configure, and ship.
Install kubriX
Deploy the kubriX distribution on your Kubernetes cluster - on-prem, AWS, Azure, GCP, or StackIT. Minimal configuration required, declarative GitOps from day one.
~ 1 DayConfigure your Bricks
Pick the pre-integrated open-source components you need. Enable Golden Paths, self-service templates, monitoring, and security policies - no custom integration code.
~ 1-2 WeeksShip Software
Your developers self-serve on a production-ready platform. Your platform team focuses on Golden Paths, not infrastructure glue. Faster, safer delivery from day one.
Week 2-4kubriX vs. DIY vs. Managed PaaS
The honest comparison. 80% of organizations abandon DIY IDP projects - because the effort doesn't pay off.
| Criteria | ⭐ kubriX | DIY IDP | Managed PaaS |
|---|---|---|---|
| Time to productive IDP | 2-4 Weeks | 12-24 Months | 4-8 Weeks (limited) |
| Ongoing maintenance effort | Low - managed bricks | Very High | Low (but locked in) |
| Vendor lock-in | None - 100% Open Source | None | High |
| On-premise / sovereign cloud | ✓ Full support | ✓ Possible (but complex) | ✗ Often cloud-only |
| EU data sovereignty (DSGVO / NIS2) | ✓ Built-in | ~ Possible with effort | ✗ Usually US-controlled |
| AI Agent & AI workload support | ✓ Ready | ~ Custom integration needed | ~ Varies by provider |
| Security & Policy-as-Code | ✓ Out of the box | Build yourself | ~ Limited options |
| Required Kubernetes expertise | Low - kubriX abstracts it | Expert-level | Low |
| Cost model | Transparent subscription | Hidden: 2-5 FTEs ongoing | Usage-based, scales costly |

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you want to know before getting started.
What exactly is an IDP Distribution?
kubriX is a curated, opinionated set of open-source tools that work together out of the box as an Internal Developer Platform. Think of it like a Linux distribution - but for platform engineering teams.
How long does it take to get productive?
Most teams have a working IDP in 2-4 weeks. kubriX ships with Day-1 and Day-2 operations pre-configured, so you spend time on your platform - not on integration work.
Does kubriX create vendor lock-in?
No. kubriX is 100% open source and built on projects like ArgoCD, Crossplane, Backstage, and Kargo. You own everything - there is no kubriX-specific API or proprietary layer.
Is kubriX ready for AI agents and AI workloads?
Yes. kubriX includes GPU workload support, secure self-service access for AI teams, and Golden Paths for deploying AI services - making it ready for modern AI-native platform needs.
How does kubriX handle DSGVO and NIS2 compliance?
EU data sovereignty is built in. kubriX runs fully on-premise or in European cloud environments, with audit logging, policy-as-code, and identity management aligned to DSGVO and NIS2 requirements.
What Kubernetes expertise is needed?
Very little for day-to-day use. kubriX abstracts Kubernetes complexity behind Golden Paths and self-service workflows. Platform teams need some Kubernetes knowledge for initial setup - not for ongoing operations.
How modular is kubriX really?
Highly modular. kubriX is built as independent bricks - you can enable or disable components based on your needs. Start small and grow your IDP incrementally without rearchitecting.
How do we get started?
The quickest path is our documentation. You can also book a free call with our team to discuss your setup, and we will recommend the right starting point for your organization.
