What is nmaas?
Introduction to nmaas
The nmaas platform is an open-source framework originally developed within the GÉANT project for orchestration of on-demand deployment of applications in a Kubernetes-based cloud environment.
With a simple self-service web interface, nmaas applications are easily deployed within an isolated tenant environment assigned to a given institution or team. An application’s lifecycle (configuration updates and re-deployments) is fully managed following a GitOps approach: a specific Git repository is tightly associated with every deployed application and a set of CI/CD pipelines ensure proper re-deployments of the applications following every update on the Git master branch, ensuring consistent configuration.
While nmaas can be used as part of many diverse use-cases, currently two are actively being expolored and supported within the GÉANT project:
