OSDU Community Implementation on Azure

One Command ·  Open Platform  · Operationally Secure

CIMPL Azure provisions AKS Automatic, bootstraps the platform foundation, and deploys the full OSDU service stack. All open-source Terraform, one command, no manual wiring.

  • Simple

    Single command deploys the full stack. Isolated developer environments. No manual platform wiring.

  • Secure

    Hardened by default. Managed Istio, workload identity, policy enforcement with native monitoring.

  • Smart

    A multi-agent system with daily briefings, automated workflows, and persistent knowledge. The smart way to work across the OSDU ecosystem.

How does it work?

  • Provision

    Azure Developer CLI creates the resource group, kubernetes cluster, monitoring, and workload identities.

  • Bootstrap

    Foundation layer installs cluster-wide operators for certificates, databases, search, DNS, and ingress.

  • Deploy

    Software stacks deploy middleware and all OSDU services with automatic compliance patching.

Why OSDU on Azure?

  • Transparent

    Open-source Terraform with every design decision documented. No hidden scripts, no black-box modules.

  • Automated

    One command deploys infrastructure, platform operators, and 20+ microservices with policy compliance at every layer.

  • Configurable

    Feature flags control every component. Toggle any service with a single variable. No fork required.

  • Compliant

    Built for AKS Automatic with deployment safeguards, managed Istio, pod security standards, and Azure RBAC.

Who is it for?

  • Platform Operators

    Stand up a running OSDU instance on Azure. One command to deploy, one command to tear down.

  • Service Developers

    Your own OSDU environment to code against, deploy to, and test with. Full agentic system with agents, skills, and knowledge vault included.

What can it do?

Capability Description
Multi-instance isolation Deploy multiple OSDU instances on the same cluster with automatic namespace separation
Per-service databases Dedicated database per service on a shared HA cluster with synchronous replication
Dynamic scaling Airflow tasks and stateful nodes provision on demand and clean up automatically
Pre-deployment validation Server dry-run verifies every resource against cluster policies before deployment begins
Upstream-safe customization Automatic Kustomize patching keeps Helm charts compliant without forking upstream
Identity provider Keycloak with automated OSDU realm initialization at deploy time
