Glad to see this here. I used to work at Kontena, the original creators of Lens, and it’s nice to see some of their products live on. The quality of code and UX was top notch, the container orchestration / k8s space is just rough to compete in commercially.

I just started using lens a couple of weeks before the kontena announcement. I'm glad the project lives on

Pretty similar except for multi-cluster support, but I'd also call out https://octant.dev as a pretty great cluster GUI.

Also found this recently, seems to be in the same space but looks a bit less powerful (but it also seems very new):

https://infra.app/

Also closed source and appears to plan on having a pricing model later on.

I've been a happy user of Infra.app for a couple of weeks now.

It is really amazing. The UI is wow. CPU and memory chart makes it easy to follow. The real-time log streaming is the killer. It is very handy for me now especially when I am testing my staging environment as we make the move to kubernetes.

Lens is more complete in that you get all the detailed resources of your cluster. Infra.app just works out of the box and gives you quick troubleshooting through easy to access logs, events and statuses of my workloads.

From the about section I see:

>"Lens was originally developed by Kontena, Inc. Today, all IPR is owned by Lakend Labs - a collective of cloud native technologists and geeks committed in preserving and making Kontena developed software available for all."

Does anyone know is Kontena no longer around? I went to their site(kontenna.io) and it was just two links one to to Pharos and one to Lens.

It appears they've shut down and most of them joined a company called Mirantis.

I'm sad to hear that, they seemed to be working on a couple of cools things(Pharos being one.) Mirantis just feels like a company trying to buy as much Kubernetes stuff as it can in order to not be known as an Openstack company any more.

A somewhat similar product that helps visualise application configuration and troubleshoot issues

That UI really reminds me of discord.

So, basically, DCOS?
