Omnistrate

Going from (Agentic) App to Product, organizations have to build multiple distribution engines. The Control Plane is nothing but an operating system for those distribution models.

Omnistrate is a developer platform to build software distribution aka Control Plane — the "operating system" that powers deployment models like On-Prem / AirGapped, BYOC, PaaS, SaaS, AaaS distributions.

We achieve this by building and running your Control Plane in your account, so that you don't have to spend years to build and army to operate on undifferentiated things.

What will your Control Plane do?

• OnPrem Installs: Packaging, versioning, deployment templatization, seamless upgrade paths, collecting basic troubleshooting data (logs/metrics), and enforcing licensing to prevent unauthorized use. Its effectively similar to building your terraform scripts for infrastructure, L5 K8s operator on top, writing the deployment script to stitch everything together.
• BYOC CoPilot: If you want to extend OnPrem model by automating deployments within the customer’s cloud account — across any cloud or region. You have to automate deployments, build the ability to deploy in customers’ account, support Offline mode for security conscious customers
• PaaS: If you want to extend OnPrem and BYOC to offer self-serve deployments (aka PLG motion) including tenant management, usage-based billing and, automated operations at massive scale — reliably, securely, and cost-effectively
• SaaS: for companies looking to provide seamless experience by just giving an endpoint that just works. The endpoint is smart enough to handle a broad range of use cases and automatically adjust based on usage to optimize for the cost, scale, performance without compromising on the security or reliability
• AaaS: If you are looking to build next-gen experience where each customer gets a personalized experience based on their organization, workloads, and data or distribute your agents

Why we built Omnistrate:

Given the complexities of Control Plane, most DIY control planes become fragile, siloed, and a blocker to innovation. Hence, we have built Omnistrate to build your control plane running in your account, so that you don't have to spend years to build and army to operate on undifferentiated things.

How does it work:

We take your container images and your cloud account id to run your control plane. From there you can provide the control plane specification using docker compose (we have added extensions) or use our native DSL (domain specific language) to describe your control plane.

What if you already started? - No problem. You can start at any point in the journey very easily. We integrate with your existing control plane stack irrespective of your current state. You can keep control of the pieces you like, leave the rest on us and have the peace of freedom to expand into new areas with ease at one-tenth the cost. Examples:

• We can import your Terraform (used for infrastructure management)
• We can import your Helm, Kustomize, Operator (used for packaging, templatization,
• We can take your existing automation for deployments to extend you across clouds or regions, build beautiful SaaS and AaaS experiences.
• and much more..

Use-cases:

• Build OnPrem Installer, BYOC, PaaS, SaaS or AaaS Products as mentioned above.
• BYOC CoPilot for your support teams to streamline deployments to accelerate customer onboarding, manage upgrades/versioning to keep track of your customers in an automated way, streamline operations to reduce MTTR and bring consistency in handling the issues. We also support offline mode for security conscious customers to only connect during operational time otherwise they can stay completely disconnected
• Multi-cloud & BYOC expansion for teams with existing control planes to extend it across clouds — deploy globally and support any deployment model, including BYOC, to run seamlessly in your customers’ accounts
• Open-source Project to Open-core: Monetize your open-source project without compromising your community-driven values by offering value-added services like streamlined deployments across any cloud/region in your own account or deploy in customers’ accounts, automated operations, seamless infrastructure management
• Internal PaaS to save cost by using your cloud credits, streamlining deployments and operations, infra management
