KubeStellar Console

Open source multi-cluster Kubernetes dashboard with AI missions, operator and GPU views, GitOps pages and a hosted demo mode.

Open source

What is KubeStellar Console?

KubeStellar Console is an open source web console for managing several Kubernetes clusters from one interface. The dashboard is organized into pages for clusters, workloads, deployments, pods, services, Helm, logs, events, nodes, storage, network, cost, GitOps, security and compliance, plus pages for AI/ML work, AI agents, GPU reservations and llm-d benchmarks. The operator view covers an operator catalog, health monitoring, a custom resource explorer, upgrade management and version drift detection across clusters. A marketplace and add-card menu let you assemble dashboards, and AI Missions guide tasks such as installing projects. A hosted demo at console.kubestellar.io runs on mocked data, so you can look around without a cluster, and installing it locally connects the console to your real clusters. No pricing or paid plans are published; the pricing page on the site returns not found, and the project says AI agents maintain it.

Use cases

  • Monitor several Kubernetes clusters in one view
  • Track operator versions across a fleet
  • Reserve and track GPU capacity
  • Review GitOps and deployment status
  • Audit operator RBAC permissions
  • Explore a Kubernetes console in demo mode

Who it's for

  • Platform engineers
  • DevOps and SRE teams
  • Kubernetes administrators

Why use KubeStellar Console

  • One console covers cluster, workload, security and cost views, so you do not switch between separate tools for each fleet.
  • Operator drift detection shows which clusters run different versions of the same operator.
  • Demo mode lets a team evaluate the interface before installing anything.
  • The project is open source, so there is no license fee to evaluate or run it.
  • Dashboards can be customized by adding or removing cards.

How to get started with KubeStellar Console

  1. Open the hosted demo at console.kubestellar.io to explore the dashboards with sample data.
  2. Install the console locally when you want it to monitor your real clusters.
  3. Add clusters and arrange the dashboard cards you need, or pull in cards from the marketplace.
  4. Use pages such as Operators, GPU Reservations and GitOps, and open AI Missions for guided tasks.

KubeStellar Console limitations

  • The hosted demo shows sample data and does not read your own clusters
  • Monitoring real clusters requires installing the console locally
  • No pricing or support plans are published on the site
  • Many of its dashboards are marked as demo content in the hosted version
