Name
Multi-Cloud GitOps Platform at Obmondo — EU Data Sovereignty, Zero Vendor Lock-in
Organization
Obmondo
Team(s)
- Platform Engineering
- SRE
- Customer Operations
Overview and Goals
Obmondo operates production Kubernetes for multiple customers across AWS, GCP, Azure, Hetzner, and bare metal with a team of under 10 engineers. The goal was to eliminate snowflake clusters: every production failure fixed once in KubeAid propagates to every cluster on the next ArgoCD sync. Secondary goal: full EU data sovereignty with no vendor control plane, no proprietary APIs, and identical configuration on bare metal in Germany, on-premises in customer datacentres, and EU-region cloud VMs.
Projects
Kubernetes, ArgoCD, Helm, Prometheus, Alertmanager, Cilium, cert-manager, Cluster API (CAPI), Velero, Traefik, Sealed Secrets (Bitnami), kube-prometheus, OpenTelemetry
Planned Evolution
- Expanding Cluster API support to additional bare metal providers
- Deeper OpenTelemetry integration for distributed tracing across workloads
- Automated compliance reporting (GDPR, NIS2, ISO 27001) from Prometheus metrics
- Broader FQDN egress policy coverage in Cilium across all KubeAid chart defaults
