Description

Control Plane is the platform for running unbreakable apps and agents. It combines any cloud, neocloud, and bare metal, including AWS, Google Cloud, Azure, and your own Kubernetes clusters, into one Global Virtual Cloud. Every workload runs active-active across the locations you choose, and a global endpoint sends each request to the nearest healthy location, so a zone, region, or provider outage does not take your service down. It runs serverless, standard, stateful, cron, and VM workloads with no application changes. Workloads reach 600+ AWS, GCP, and Azure services through Universal Cloud Identity, with no long-lived cloud keys in code, and Cloud Wormhole connects them to private VPCs and data centers. Autoscaling, observability, mutual TLS, secrets, and an audit trail are built in, with no Kubernetes cluster to operate. Customers typically cut compute costs 30 to 50 percent compared with running directly on AWS, GCP, or Azure.
