Spectro Cloud makes Kubernetes accessible to enterprises at scale, without requiring deep Kubernetes expertise.
In this video by our investors, Stripes, co-founders Terry Fu (CEO), Saad Malik (CTO), and Gautam Ghosh (VP Engineering) explain why they built Palette, who it's for, and what it can do.
Palette is a full-stack enterprise Kubernetes management platform that manages everything from the OS to Kubernetes to applications — across cloud, on-prem, and edge environments. Customers like T-Mobile and GE Healthcare use it to run mission-critical workloads including core payment systems and hospital ICU units.
Highlights:
• Why containers and Kubernetes became the foundation of modern application development
• How Palette delivers a consumer-grade experience for enterprise Kubernetes operations
• Real-world impact: 200+ vulnerable clusters patched in under 4 hours with zero downtime (vs. 3–4 weeks manually)
• Full-stack management: OS → Kubernetes → applications, all in one platform
• Named a Gartner Cool Vendor 2022 in Edge Computing
• Stripe's investment in Spectro Cloud and the consumerized enterprise software thesis
