About Porter
Porter is a Platform as a Service that enables teams to provision and manage Kubernetes clusters directly within their own cloud accounts on AWS, GCP, or Azure. By running in customers' infrastructure rather than on shared servers, Porter gives organizations control and flexibility over their deployments. The platform automates the complex day-2 operations required to keep applications running smoothly after initial deployment, reducing operational overhead and allowing teams to focus on development rather than infrastructure management.
