SafeScale

SafeScale is a powerful Infrastructure and Platform as a Code tool designed to manage computing clusters across multiple cloud platforms. It offers APIs and CLI tools divided into three service layers: SafeScale Infra, SafeScale Platform, and SafeScale Security. This tool simplifies the management of cloud resources, making it easier for users to deploy and manage clusters efficiently.

Benefits

SafeScale provides several key advantages:-Multi-Cloud Management: SafeScale Infra abstracts IaaS services from various cloud providers, allowing users to manage resources like networks, hosts, and storage across different platforms seamlessly.-PaaS Capabilities: SafeScale Platform enables users to deploy standard or specific clusters with minimal features, improving deployment speed and efficiency.-Security: SafeScale Security offers on-demand security gateways to protect web services along five axes: Encryption, Authentication, Authorization, Auditability, and Intrusion detection.-Flexibility: Users can add or remove software components on hosts and clusters, making it easy to customize and manage their environments.

Use Cases

SafeScale is ideal for various scenarios, including:-Cloud Infrastructure Management: Users can create and destroy private networks, routers, and manage firewalls, hosts, and storage across multiple cloud providers.-Cluster Deployment: SafeScale Platform allows users to deploy standard clusters with minimal features, such as cluster management environments (BOH or K8S), gateways, and remote desktop access.-Security Management: SafeScale Security provides on-demand security gateways to protect web services, ensuring encryption, authentication, authorization, auditability, and intrusion detection.

Currently Available Abilities

SafeScale is currently under active development and offers the following abilities:-SafeScale Infra: Create and destroy private networks, hosts, block and object storage, mount object storage on file systems, create shares, connect/disconnect hosts to shares, and manage Security Groups.-SafeScale Platform: Create and destroy clusters composed of networks, servers, and services (BOH and Kubernetes), and add/remove features on hosts and clusters.-Supported Cloud Providers: OVH Public Cloud, FlexibleEngine, OpenTelekom, CloudFerro, Generic OpenStack, Local provider (unstable), AWS, GCP (Google Cloud Platform), and Outscale.
