Orkes

Platform for coding and managing distributed systems

About Orkes

Orkes.io provides a platform that focuses on improving the development, scaling, and monitoring of distributed systems. Its main product, Orkes Conductor, allows users to design their business logic in a user-friendly way, akin to sketching on a whiteboard. Users can write components in their chosen programming languages and frameworks, deploy them at scale without complex setups, and monitor their performance across various systems. What sets Orkes.io apart from its competitors is its flexibility in deployment; clients can choose to have Orkes Conductor hosted entirely by Orkes.io or run it within their own cloud infrastructure, such as Azure, AWS, or GCP. This adaptability caters to diverse client requirements. The goal of Orkes.io is to provide a comprehensive solution for application orchestration, ensuring security through features like access control and Single Sign-On, while also nurturing a community of developers and architects who can collaborate and share insights.
