Portainer is a universal container management platform
Portainer's multi-cluster and multi-device support means you can manage environments of any type, anywhere (Docker and Kubernetes, running on dev laptops, in your DC, in the cloud, or at the edge), and we don't require you to run any specific Kubernetes distro.
We provide a unified user experience that makes adopting hybrid and multi-cloud deployments much faster, improves the efficiency of your users managing their deployments, and even allows you to mix Docker and Kubernetes endpoints in one management pane.
Secure, centralized access and authorization for your environments
Once you configure Portainer to connect to your corporate directory you can grant users and groups access to certain clusters with certain roles, and manage it all through Portainer.
No need to manage IAM, or any specific provider access per cluster. And since Portainer is also an API endpoint proxy, there's no need to expose your Kubernetes/Docker APIs externally.
Per cluster policies, all from one central place.
Customize your pod security admission policies, quotas and restrictions, or define golden paths - per environment, and universally.
Simple, self-service UI
Portainer is perfect whether you're brand new to containers, or if you have some experience. Our UI makes it simple for your internal users to consume the cluster resources, from any of the clusters they are given access to, with a common UX regardless of the cluster type or location. We facilitate your transition, we show you what's possible and we help you get deploying apps fast.
Self-hosted so your business is in control
Portainer is self-hosted, so all management operations happen within the safe confines of your network, and behind the safety of your firewall.
