Deploy lab environments
in minutes, not hours
Spin up complete training environments with GitLab, Kubernetes, and CI/CD pipelines from a single blueprint.
Setting up environments is painful
We've all been there. The seminar starts in 30 minutes and you're still debugging setup issues.
Hours of manual setup
Configuring VMs, networking, and software before every training session
Inconsistent environments
"It works on my machine" — different OS versions, missing deps, config drift
Frustrated participants
Waiting for SSH access while you frantically debug firewall rules
Runaway cloud costs
Forgot to tear down that 20-node cluster from last week's workshop
Blueprints: Your environment as code
Define once, deploy anywhere. One command creates everything you need.
Define Blueprint
Describe your infra in YAML: VMs, networks, DNS, software packages. Version control it.
GitOps readyDeploy in Seconds
One command spins up isolated environments for each participant. No manual steps.
< 5 min deployShare Access
Auto-generated SSH keys, URLs, and credentials. Participants start immediately.
Zero configAuto Cleanup
TTL-based expiry or manual teardown. Never pay for forgotten resources again.
