Open Source k0rdent Announces 19 Validated Infrastructure and Software Integrations into the Project's Ecosystem

Yahoo26-03-2025

Packaged in the k0rdent Application Catalog, the integrations speed implementations and simplify operations of cloud-native and AI workloads
LONDON, March 26, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--KUBECON--Mirantis, a leader in open-source cloud infrastructure and platform engineering, today announced the k0rdent Application Catalog – with 19 validated infrastructure and software integrations that empower platform engineers to accelerate the delivery of cloud-native and AI workloads wherever they need to be deployed.
The integrations are used for deploying Kubernetes clusters with open source k0rdent in data centers and on Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, OpenStack, VMware vSphere, as well as other popular software programs used in Kubernetes deployments for cloud-native AI workloads.
Launched last month, k0rdent has already gained traction in building an ecosystem of partners that include cloud and service providers, as well as popular open source software. k0rdent helps platform engineers manage infrastructure sprawl and operational complexity across infrastructure. It simplifies maintenance across cloud service providers and on-premises infrastructure with declarative automation, centralized policy enforcement, and production-ready templates optimized for modern workloads. k0rdent leverages the open source Cluster API so that Kubernetes clusters can be created – and existing clusters can be managed – anywhere.
"By providing a central control point across infrastructure, k0rdent has attracted a growing ecosystem, facilitating deployment of cloud-native and AI workloads with greater agility, efficiency, and control," said Randy Bias, vice president of open source strategy and technology at Mirantis. "k0rdent streamlines platform engineering for AI workloads at scale, using Kubernetes to enable extensibility, customizability, and scalability of AI infrastructure. Plus, it helps optimize inference workloads by dynamically allocating compute resources where they are needed most, from centralized data centers to the far edge."
The growing catalog of integrations and templates is now available and continuously updated to ensure platform teams have access to the latest tools and technologies for managing cloud-native AI workloads. The catalog includes validated services, and templates to facilitate deployment, and make it easy to integrate complementary technologies into Kubernetes clusters.
The catalog includes networking and security solutions such as Ingress-NGINX for load balancing, Calico for networking and security, and Istio for service mesh capabilities. Plus, integrations with storage technologies like NetApp's Trident CSI help optimize data management, while policy enforcement tools such as Kyverno enable Kubernetes-native governance and compliance. Additionally, the catalog offers continuous delivery and monitoring tools, including ArgoCD for declarative, GitOps-driven application deployment and OpenCost for cloud cost monitoring, ensuring efficient resource utilization.
For more information, view the k0rdent Getting Started Docs and software downloads that are available on GitHub. To get added to the catalog, submit the request to GitHub. To see what the partners are saying, go here.

Tennant Company Sells 10,000th Robotic Scrubber, Underscoring Global Demand for Cleaning Automation

Milestone reflects growing adoption of robotic cleaning technology as organizations look to automation to drive consistency, efficiency, and performance across operations MINNEAPOLIS, June 03, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tennant Company (NYSE: TNC), a world leader in cleaning equipment and solutions, today announced it sold its 10,000th autonomous mobile robot (AMR), reinforcing the company's leadership in robotic cleaning and underscoring the growing global demand for proven, scalable automation for facility management. Today, robotic solutions are a core strategy for organizations looking to maintain high cleaning standards across industrial and commercial environments. "Selling 10,000 robotic scrubbers is a major milestone — not just for Tennant, but for robotic cleaning adoption overall," said Dave Huml, President and CEO of Tennant Company. "It signals a clear shift with customers: we've moved past the wait-and-see era. Scalable robotic cleaning programs deliver real results, customers are choosing Tennant for robotic cleaning, and this is only the beginning." Robotic cleaning solutions now deliver more consistent results, reduced reliance on human labor for repetitive tasks, and more accurate, real-time reporting on cleaning results. Cleaning robotics now helps meet compliance standards and supports audit readiness in a way that wasn't possible a decade ago. Tennant's journey reflects these technological advancements. Some of the milestones along the way of Tennant's AMR journey: 2018 – T7AMR: Tennant launches its first AMR, the T7AMR, introducing robotic cleaning to large commercial spaces. 2020 – T380AMR: Tennant ships the first T380AMR, a smaller, maneuverable machine, designed to fit in tight and narrow spaces. 2021 – T16AMR: Tennant debuts the T16AMR, the first robotic scrubber in its product line built for logistics and manufacturing facilities. 2024 – Brain Corp Partnership and X4 ROVR robotic floor scrubber: Tennant formalizes its relationship with Brain Corp, signing an exclusive technology agreement and investing $32 million to accelerate the next generation of AI-enabled AMR development and adoption in the floor cleaning industry. This leads to the X4 ROVR, the first purpose-built autonomous scrubber in its portfolio for small to mid-sized commercial spaces. 2025 – X6 ROVR robotic floor scrubber: Tennant launches the X6 ROVR, a mid-sized robotic scrubber built for large and complex environments, capable of cleaning up to 75,000 square feet per cycle. The sale of 10,000 robotic cleaning machines shows more than general demand for AMRs. Customers choose Tennant again and again because of its emphasis on the human element of AMR adoption — service and support. As organizations scale up automation, they need a partner to help adopt robotics alongside their existing team, working directly with customers to implement tech, train employees, and monitor results to ensure AMRs fully integrate into daily workflows. This hands-on support is one example of Tennant's ability to look forward and ensure automation delivers real, lasting value for its customers. "Reaching this milestone is a testament to Tennant's continued focus on delivering innovation that's both forward-thinking and field-proven," said John Ickes, Director of Design and Innovation at Tennant Company. "Our AMR solutions aren't just about new technology — they're about helping customers solve real operational challenges with tools designed expressly for the scenarios they deal with on a day-to-day basis."
