About Openeverest
OpenEverest is an open source platform for provisioning and managing databases on Kubernetes. It gives teams a self service database platform, in effect an internal database as a service, that runs on any Kubernetes cluster, whether in a public cloud, a private cloud or on premises. The project describes itself as covering automated database, storage and LLM provisioning, and it is a CNCF Sandbox project released under Apache 2.0.
Platform and infrastructure teams use a single dashboard, API or CLI to create production ready databases with preset topologies and versions. Supported technologies include MySQL, MariaDB, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, ClickHouse, Microsoft SQL Server, TiDB and Valkey, and each technology is added as a provider, with a Provider SDK for building others and a hub for adding databases, caches or AI runtimes.
Day two operations are built in: scaling by adding nodes, shards or replicas and adjusting CPU, memory and storage; scheduled backups to S3 compatible storage with point in time recovery and cloning from any backup; and metrics that plug into an existing observability stack. The interface includes a visual topology explorer for proxies, pods and containers, in app log streaming, and a guided wizard for storage classes, scheduling and engine parameters. Security features include TLS.
The software is free and open source. The site publishes no paid plans.
