IronCore

The Kubernetes driven IaaS

Welcome to the IronCore Project

IronCore Logo

👋 Welcome to the official GitHub presence of IronCore. We are part of ApeiroRA which is an Important Project of Common European Interest - Next Generation Cloud Infrastructures and Services (IPCEI-CIS). Project IronCore is an open source system for managing compute and storage workloads across multiple providers.

🌐 ApeiroRA?

ApeiroRA is a reference blueprint for an open, flexible, secure, and compliant next-generation cloud-edge continuum and therefore a key contribution to IPCEI-CIS. At a high level, the projects of ApeiroRA allow users to provider-agnostically fetch, request and consume services, and for service providers to describe, offer and provision their services.

Learn more about ApeiroRA by checking out the official website at https://apeirora.eu/.

🤝 IronCore

IronCore provides a reference for compounded software layers for inventorying, managing, and maintaining baremetal using Kubernetes’ cloud-native principles. IronCore can be used for cloud-native workloads via Gardener directly, where IronCore dynamically sources ephemeral virtual and physical machines for Kubernetes.

🐧 Features

  • Single Interface: Single Interface for managing resources orchestrated across regions, data centers, and availability zones.
  • Vendor-Neutral Storage Backend: Ceph is modularly provided as a cloud-natively automated, vendor-neutral storage backend for block, shared, and object storage.
  • CLOS Network Fabric: Network fabric based on CLOS Topology is included.
