Deploy and manage 25+ Production-grade databases as native Kubernetes resources directly on your Mirantis Kubernetes Engine (MKE). Leverage Mirantis OpenStack for Kubernetes (MOSK) storage and MKE's enterprise security - with broader choice, zero extra licensing, and true GitOps agility. MKE delivers enterprise-grade Kubernetes. MOSK brings production OpenStack services on Kubernetes. KubeDB makes databases a first-class citizen, with no extra tools or licensing. CNCF-certified, hardened Kubernetes platform with FIPS 140-2, DISA STIG, RBAC, multi-cluster management, and composable architecture. Built for production at scale on any infrastructure. Full OpenStack (Nova, Cinder, Neutron, Keystone, Ceph) running natively on MKE. Enterprise private cloud with software-defined storage and networking, all managed through Kubernetes. VM-based databases, manual ops, or limited operators. Great for legacy, but lacks the speed, breadth, and developer agility of true Kubernetes-native databases. KubeDB fills the gap - turning MKE into a full-featured, open database platform. 25+ engines • Deep MKE + MOSK integration Maximize your existing MKE and MOSK investment, no per-core database licensing or proprietary DBaaS fees. Databases are just Kubernetes objects. Enable self-service provisioning with the same GitOps workflows your teams already use on MKE. Built-in TLS, encryption, and seamless integration with MKE's RBAC, FIPS 140-2, and STIG-hardened policies, plus MOSK's secure networking. Leverage Ceph CSI and Cinder from MOSK for blazing-fast, scalable persistent volumes. Sub-millisecond latency, erasure coding, and enterprise resilience for all your databases. Identical KubeDB manifests work across MKE on-prem, public cloud, or any CNCF Kubernetes, no vendor lock-in. Run databases alongside your microservices on MKE. Use MKE observability, policies, and fleet management for everything, apps and data in one stack. The KubeDB Operator sits directly on top of your MKE infrastructure, leveraging Mirantis's enterprise-grade security, FIPS 140-2 certification, and high-performance storage with MOSK and Ceph. Declarative operators handle provisioning, upgrades, scaling, and repair with zero-downtime where possible. Multi-zone clustering, automated failover, PodDisruptionBudgets, and continuous health checks with MKE integration. Integrated with KubeStash for policy-driven, incremental, encrypted backups to S3-compatible storage. Support for point-in-time recovery. Native Prometheus + Grafana dashboards. Integrates with MKE monitoring stack for complete visibility. Automated TLS, Transparent Data Encryption, RBAC integration with MKE, network policies, FIPS 140-2, and STIG compliance. Ceph CSI and Cinder integration with sub-millisecond latency, erasure coding, and enterprise resilience for all databases. 25+ Database engines managed with Kubernetes-native workflowsRun Any Database Natively on Mirantis Kubernetes Engine Without the Compromise.
