Control hub for distributed infrastructure

Develop in cloud. Deploy on-site. Operate centrally.

Nebulix gives infrastructure teams one operating hub for workloads that start in managed cloud clusters and move to on-site appliances when data locality, latency, sovereignty, or operational constraints require local compute.

Start in cloud while your physical appliance is prepared. Deploy the same workloads on-site when the hardware arrives.

Cloud convenience without on-site drift

Companies are stuck between public cloud convenience and self-managed on-prem complexity. Public cloud is easy to consume, but not every workload can live there. Self-managed edge and on-prem infrastructure gives control, but creates snowflake deployments, slow upgrades, and operational burden.

Start before hardware arrives

Create cloud-backed virtual sites for development, testing, staging, and early onboarding.

Keep the same workload path

Use Kubernetes APIs, kubectl, Helm, GitOps, and existing container workflows across virtual and physical sites.

Operate distributed sites centrally

Nebulix manages lifecycle, upgrades, observability, recovery, and fleet state from one operating hub.

Use local compute where it matters

Move workloads on-site for data locality, latency, sovereignty, regulation, or operational constraints.

Where cloud alone is not enough

Nebulix is built for organizations with many sites, local compute requirements, and central infrastructure teams that do not want every site to become its own platform.

Manufacturing fabs

Run latency-sensitive compute close to machines and production data, while central teams validate releases in cloud before rolling them out on-site.

Local AI in offices

Operate inference capacity across many offices so each site can scale locally, keep sensitive data local, and still follow one central operating model.

Warehouses and logistics sites

Deploy local compute for scanning, robotics, routing, and automation workloads without turning every warehouse into a separate infrastructure project.

A managed infrastructure platform for distributed sites

Nebulix is a control hub for workloads that need to run where the cloud alone is not enough. It is not a generic multi-cloud dashboard, not just Kubernetes on bare metal, and not only an AI appliance company.

Virtual sites give teams a managed cloud environment to validate the same workload model they will later use on physical Nebulix appliances at customer sites.

Virtual sites

Nebulix-managed cloud Kubernetes environments for development, testing, staging, and early onboarding.

Physical sites

Nebulix-owned appliances deployed at customer locations and operated under subscription.

Central operations

One control plane, API, dashboard, and CLI for virtual and physical sites.

Managed services

A curated service catalog available consistently across cloud and on-site environments.

Customers do not buy hardware. Physical Nebulix appliances are owned and operated by Nebulix, deployed at customer sites, and managed centrally as part of the subscription.

One workflow from cloud to site

Develop in cloud, validate the workload, deploy on-site, and keep operations centralized.

Start in cloud

Create a managed cloud cluster and begin development immediately.

Validate workload

Test deployment workflows, services, and operational behavior before hardware arrives.

Deploy on-site

Move the same workload to a Nebulix physical appliance when local compute is required.

Operate centrally

Manage cloud and physical sites through one dashboard, API, and nebctl workflow.

Example rollout

From cloud validation to local compute in a fab

A manufacturer can validate software in cloud first, then deploy the same workload to an on-site appliance when latency, production data locality, or operational constraints require compute inside the fab.

01

Develop in a virtual site

The platform team creates a cloud-backed virtual site for application teams to build and test against the same deployment model used later on-site.

02

Validate for the fab

Teams test manifests, services, observability, rollback behavior, and release gates before the physical appliance is installed.

03

Deploy to the physical site

When the fab needs low-latency local compute, the same workload is rolled out to a Nebulix-owned appliance at the customer site.

04

Operate centrally

Central infrastructure teams monitor site health, upgrades, workload state, and managed services across virtual and physical environments.

Clear responsibility boundaries

Nebulix removes site infrastructure work from application teams without taking away their deployment workflow or control over the workload.

Area

Platform lifecycle

Nebulix operates

Cluster lifecycle, base system updates, Kubernetes upgrades, monitoring signals, and appliance health.

Customer controls

Maintenance windows, production release approvals, and workload compatibility testing.

Area

Site connectivity

Nebulix operates

Control-plane connectivity, site enrollment, health reporting, and connectivity troubleshooting.

Customer controls

Network access, firewall approval, local power, rack placement, and site readiness.

Area

Workload delivery

Nebulix operates

Consistent deployment targets across virtual and physical sites through dashboard, API, and nebctl.

Customer controls

Application code, container images, GitOps repositories, workload configuration, and rollout decisions.

Area

Data and secrets

Nebulix operates

Infrastructure controls needed to run the platform and managed services.

Customer controls

Data classification, data placement requirements, application secrets, and access policies.

Area

Managed services

Nebulix operates

Service lifecycle, upgrades, monitoring, and operational runbooks for curated infrastructure services.

Customer controls

Service selection, schemas, data retention needs, backup requirements, and restore approval.

Area

Capacity planning

Nebulix operates

Physical appliance sizing guidance and subscription planning for each site.

Customer controls

Expected workload profile, latency requirements, redundancy needs, and growth assumptions.

Virtual sites let teams begin development, testing, and staging before appliance delivery. Physical site rollout is planned after capacity, network, redundancy, and site-readiness requirements are confirmed.

Security, connectivity, and integration points

CTOs should not have to guess how a central control plane interacts with local infrastructure. Nebulix keeps the product boundary explicit: site workloads run locally, operations are centralized, and customer systems remain part of the workflow.

Data boundary by design

Workloads and site data run where they are deployed. Nebulix does not need application data copied into a central dashboard to operate the site infrastructure.

Explicit site connectivity

Physical sites are enrolled with defined network paths, firewall rules, and health checks. Workloads continue to run locally if central connectivity is degraded.

Access and audit model

Nebulix is designed around API, dashboard, and CLI access with role separation, auditability, and customer-controlled release approvals.

Integration surface

Kubernetes APIs
GitOps workflows
CI/CD pipelines
SSO and RBAC
Audit logs
Observability exports

The goal is to fit into existing platform-engineering workflows instead of forcing every site onto a separate operational island.

Kubernetes-native, operated as a product

Use familiar Kubernetes-style workflows through nebctl, while Nebulix operates the infrastructure underneath.

Start with a virtual site
$ nebctl create site cloud-dev-01 --type=virtual
site/cloud-dev-01 created
$ nebctl apply -f app.yaml --site=cloud-dev-01
deployment.apps/api-service created
service/api-service created
$ kubectl get pods

api-service-7d9c8-kxm2p   1/1     Running   0          12s
api-service-7d9c8-aht7k   1/1     Running   0          12s
Move to an on-site appliance
$ nebctl validate -f app.yaml --site=factory-de-01
workload/api validated
$ nebctl apply -f app.yaml --site=factory-de-01
deployment.apps/api-service created
$ nebctl get deployments --all-sites

One workflow

Validate workloads in cloud and deploy them on-site without changing how teams work.

Nebulix-operated

Nebulix manages lifecycle, upgrades, monitoring, site connectivity, and appliance health.

Open-source foundations

Built on Kubernetes, Cluster API, Talos, and Argo CD, with Nebulix adding the product layer for cloud-to-site operations.

Curated managed service catalog

Nebulix provides managed infrastructure services consistently across cloud-backed virtual sites and on-site physical appliances. The catalog is curated, not a huge marketplace: PostgreSQL, Redis, object storage, observability, and inference runtimes are examples of the services teams can standardize around.
