Fairwinds Insights | For Platform Teams to Enable Developers on Kubernetes

FinOps Governance for Kubernetes

Manage costs, right-size containers, and fix misconfigurations across multiple clusters and teams.

Get Started

Drive Kubernetes Visibility Efficiency

Avoid becoming a Kubernetes helpdesk by empowering developers to ship faster and avoid problems.

Reduce Cluster Costs by 30%

Rightsize containers to reduce Kubernetes costs by 30% or more.

25% Time Savings

Automate Kubernetes cluster review and remediation to save up to 25% of operations and development time.

Fix 45% of Problems Immediately

Make it easy for developers to adhere to policies by automating fixes before reaching production.

Manage and Reduce Costs

Gain visibility into Kubernetes spend across multiple clusters without managing long term metrics. Allocate cost by label, namespace, container, and more so you can easily prioritize cost saving opportunities.

Empower Engineers to Take Action

Fairwinds’ unique Shift-left integrations enable developers to identify configurations that lead to wasted compute. Resource recommendations appear directly in developer Pull Requests – surfacing up valuable FinOps and Kubernetes best practices before they are released.

Save Time Ship Faster

Avoid manual work by leveraging Auto-fix Pull Requests to remediate 45% of findings. Use Automated Workload Right-sizer to dynamically adjust resources in the cluster – saving time coordinating across teams, while also maximizing resource efficiency.

Standardize on Kubernetes Best Practices

Fairwinds provides a library of 200+ policies for Kubernetes security, efficiency, and reliability best practices. Use these policies to audit existing cluster resources, enforce standards at time of admission, or fix issues when developers create Pull Requests.

The Cost To Fix Kubernetes Misconfigurations

When you increase development velocity, one major drawback emerges: the cost to repair defects. Just as problems with code are expensive to fix, so too are Kubernetes misconfigurations. Fairwinds enables platform teams to reduce time spent in code review by enforcing policy throughout the development lifecycle: from pull request to production.

Create safe, cost effective and reliable Kubernetes infrastructure

Build your Kubernetes platform and add Fairwinds Insights to help you enable development to do the right thing.
