Discover proven frameworks, best practices, and real-world insights to build Kubernetes operators and enhance cloud-native capabilities at scale. Kubernetes is at the heart of modern cloud-native development — enabling enterprises to orchestrate, scale, and manage applications seamlessly. Yet, as organizations adopt complex workloads, the need to extend Kubernetes beyond its native resources becomes essential. This whitepaper explores how custom resources and controllers can empower teams to tailor Kubernetes to their unique business and technical needs. Built on deep operational knowledge and real-world experience, this guide helps teams move from theory to implementation with confidence. Appscode’s engineers are core contributors and maintainers of popular open-source tools that simplify and extend Kubernetes for global enterprises.Extend Kubernetes Like a Pro with Our Comprehensive Whitepaper

InterSystems was delighted to engage with AppsCode in the delicate, yet fundamental task of supporting durable, non-ephemeral workloads with Kubernetes. We needed the best-prepared, most-proficient database operator consulting in the industry. Given AppsCode's pedigree of database building operators, the decision was easy. No time was wasted and all objectives reached in an amazingly short period of time. I would recommend AppsCode consulting for any Kubernetes related work.
Voyager made it simple and efficient for us to protect and initiate our bare metal Kubernetes workload. Its underlying technology and extensive L4 support along with seamless SSL integration is what made us choose Voyager over others. Voyager team is also very responsive when it comes to support. Great product!
Voyager is the easiest way to use the fast and reliable HAProxy as our ingress controller. At PriceHubble, it is the corner-stone of our blue/green deployments.
I work with a few Kubernetes clusters and we use Voyager as our preferred ingress controller. We really like the ease of configuration. Documentation is pretty good. Also the use of HaProxy is important for us because it works really well with both L4 and L7 load balancing. One of our TCP services, Wayk Now, is able to withstand thousands of persistent connections very smoothly at the same time.
We really like using Voyager. Its straightforward and well-documented config and SSL (especially Let's Encrypt) has made our migration of services to Kubernetes a breeze. Each major version has been a very welcome update!
We're using Voyager as part of most Astarte deployments and it's orchestrated also by our brand new Operator. We are glad to showcase that.
