Sardina Systems and Clastix Partner to Deliver Managed Kubernetes on FishOS

Simplifying Multi-Tenant Kubernetes on FishOS cloud

Sardina Systems has announced a new technology partnership with Clastix aimed at expanding Kubernetes capabilities within the FishOS cloud platform. Through the integration of Clastix’s open-source project Kamaji, organizations operating FishOS-based cloud platforms can now deploy and run production-ready Kubernetes clusters more efficiently.

Clastix, an Italian software company specializing in Kubernetes at scale, is best known for Kamaji, an open-source project designed to decouple Kubernetes control planes from worker nodes. This approach allows multiple isolated Kubernetes control planes to run efficiently on shared infrastructure, improving scalability and reducing operational complexity.

The partnership introduces Managed Kubernetes natively on FishOS, enhancing OpenStack for compute, Ceph for storage, and Kubernetes into a unified cloud infrastructure stack. Kubernetes control plane management is handled through Kamaji, enabling centralized operations and simplified lifecycle management across clusters.

Managed Kubernetes, Built Into FishOS

With this integration, FishOS simplifies Kubernetes delivery for platform operators by enabling rapid provisioning of Kubernetes clusters while centralizing control plane operations. Each cluster maintains its own dedicated, upstream-compatible control plane, delivered as part of a centrally managed service for consistent governance, isolation, and operational efficiency.

Multi-tenancy is a core design principle of the solution. Each tenant or internal team receives an isolated Kubernetes control plane, providing clear security boundaries and consistent performance. This model is particularly relevant for organizations operating shared infrastructure across multiple customers or business units.

Kamaji-powered Kubernetes clusters run natively on FishOS infrastructure, leveraging OpenStack compute resources, Ceph-backed persistent storage, and FishOS operational tooling. The result is a consistent operational model across virtual machines, containers, and storage workloads.

Use Cases for Service Providers and Enterprises

The joint solution targets cloud service providers (CSPs) and managed service providers (MSPs) that want to offer scalable Kubernetes alongside virtual infrastructure with reduced operational overhead and critical tenant isolation.

Enterprise IT teams running private clouds can also benefit by standardizing Kubernetes delivery across departments while maintaining governance, security, and cost control.

Expanding Kubernetes in Private and Hybrid Clouds

Sardina Systems and Clastix position the partnership as a step toward more scalable and operationally efficient Kubernetes deployments in private and hybrid cloud environments. By combining FishOS infrastructure with Kamaji’s Kubernetes control plane architecture, organizations gain a flexible foundation for modern application platforms without sacrificing control or transparency.
