All coverage

Kubernetes coverage

Investigate workloads, optimize resource usage, and execute approved automated remediation across Kubernetes environments with PointFive OS. Infrastructure changes use customer-authorized write access.

Frequently asked questions

PointFive reads Kubernetes resource metadata and usage through your cloud provider integration, with read-only access for discovery. PointFive does not install DaemonSets, sidecars, or agents in your clusters.

PointFive OS supports investigation, optimization, and approved automated remediation across Amazon EKS, Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), and Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). Discovery uses read-only access. Automated remediation uses customer-authorized permissions, and each customer chooses how changes are approved: per change, once for a trusted playbook, or not at all.

PointFive combines agentless Kubernetes discovery with context from the underlying cloud infrastructure, so teams can investigate workload and infrastructure efficiency together.

Yes. PointFive provides unified visibility across your EKS, AKS, and GKE clusters, regardless of cloud provider. Compare cluster efficiency and identify workload placement optimizations.

Fully agentless, no DaemonSets, no sidecars. Discovery uses read-only access. Automated remediation uses customer-authorized permissions, and each customer chooses how changes are approved: per change, once for a trusted playbook, or not at all. No access to application data or secrets. Data encrypted in transit and at rest. SOC 2 Type II.
