A True Multi-Cloud Agnostic Experience

Instead of asking customers to buy into an entire single-vendor ecosystem, CloudBolt empowers customers to manage supporting infrastructure and applications across multiple clouds.

Kubernetes Integration - Container Orchestrators on Environments

Agentless Platform

CloudBolt doesn’t use agents to integrate with external systems, instead making calls directly into the API. This eliminates the need to maintain/upgrade multiple agent versions across multiple OSs. Customers can write their own integration using our simple Python-based platform. No need to wait for RFEs or for items to be added to the roadmap.

Extensible & User-Friendly

CloudBolt is intuitive for admins and users. No need for months of PSO or end-user training. vRA requires those, with an interface geared to admins and not users. The user-friendly CloudBolt platform enables self-service IT, which frees up time for IT pros and allows DevOps teams to get the resources they need to drive digital business innovation faster.
