About

Loft Labs was founded in 2019 after the founders went through UC Berkeley’s SkyDeck accelerator program. The company’s mission is to enable any organization to expand self-service access to Kubernetes and the team has created several open-source projects to support this mission, including DevSpace, vcluster, jsPolicy and kiosk. The company’s commercial product, Loft, ties these open-source projects together into a single Kubernetes platform that companies can use to provide engineers with secure but unimpeded access to cloud resources and to make the switch to truly cloud-native engineering practices.
