Virtual data center in-a-box

cSkyLab is a virtual data center model that allows fast application deployment and gives you the choice to scale up your services in any combination of private, public or hybrid cloud.

cSkyLab bootstraps a modern DevOps environment to develop and serve cloud-native and legacy applications in Kubernetes and virtual-machine environments.

It implements a thin layer of bash scripts, templates and procedures that allows you to leverage all the power and versatility of native cloud tools.
