Open Source Docker Swarm Control Plane
Multi-cluster federation, AI-powered operations, and real-time observability. A reference architecture for building federated infrastructure control planes.
What Hive Provides
Production-ready tooling for Docker Swarm infrastructure management. Patterns that transfer to any orchestrator.
Multi-Cluster Federation
Manage all your Docker Swarm clusters from a single unified dashboard. No more SSH sessions to different environments.
Zero-Downtime Deployments
Rolling updates with automatic rollback on failures. Health-aware deployments that never leave you with broken services.
AI-Powered Operations
50+ MCP tools for natural language infrastructure management. Works with Claude Code and MCP-compatible assistants.
Real-Time Observability
Live metrics, centralized logs, and service health monitoring. Prometheus and Elasticsearch integration out of the box.
Configuration Compliance
Drift detection with auto-reconciliation. Know when your running services differ from desired state and fix it automatically.
Security & Compliance
Comprehensive audit logging with actor attribution and change diffs. Secret management with one-click rotation.
