## Introduction

KubeVela is a modern application delivery platform that makes deploying and operating applications across today's hybrid, multi-cloud environments easier, faster and more reliable.

![kubevela](docs/resources/what-is-kubevela.png)

## Highlights

KubeVela practices the "render, orchestrate, deploy" workflow with below highlighted values added to existing ecosystem:

#### **Deployment as Code**

Declare your deployment plan as workflow, run it automatically with any CI/CD or GitOps system, extend or re-program the workflow steps with [CUE](https://cuelang.org/).
No ad-hoc scripts, no dirty glue code, just deploy. The deployment workflow in KubeVela is powered by [Open Application Model](https://oam.dev/).

#### **Built-in observability, multi-tenancy and security support**

Choose from the wide range of LDAP integrations we provided out-of-box, enjoy enhanced [multi-tenancy and multi-cluster authorization and authentication](https://kubevela.net/docs/platform-engineers/auth/advance),
pick and apply fine-grained RBAC modules and customize them per your own supply chain requirements.
All delivery process has fully [automated observability dashboards](https://kubevela.net/docs/platform-engineers/operations/observability).

#### **Multi-cloud/hybrid-environments app delivery as first-class citizen**

Natively supports multi-cluster/hybrid-cloud scenarios such as progressive rollout across test/staging/production environments,
automatic canary, blue-green and continuous verification, rich placement strategy across clusters and clouds,
along with automated cloud environments provision.

#### **Lightweight but highly extensible architecture**

Minimize your control plane deployment with only one pod and 0.5c1g resources to handle thousands of application delivery.
Glue and orchestrate all your infrastructure capabilities as reusable modules with a highly extensible architecture
and share the large growing community [addons](https://kubevela.net/docs/reference/addons/overview).
