A first-of-its-kind Copilot for organizations running mission-critical applications on Kubernetes

Chkk is a Kubernetes Copilot that identifies and prioritizes availability risks before they cause incidents. Chkk cuts down weeks of Kubernetes upgrade work, enabling teams to safely upgrade Kubernetes without worrying about inherent complexities, hidden dependencies, and unknown incompatibilities. In order to prevent mistakes from being made again, Chkk’s Collective Learning technology mines and curates known errors, failures, and disruptions that the Kubernetes community, which includes users/operators, cloud providers, and vendors, has encountered.

Chkk was founded by Awais Nemat (CEO), Fawad Khaliq (CTO) and Ali Khayam (CPO) who worked together for more than a decade and built planet-scale services for AWS, including Amazon EKS. There the trio experienced firsthand how critical a proactive approach to availability is for mission-critical services which inspired them to democratize this knowledge for the worldwide developer community.

Chkk’s mission is to democratize the wisdom of operating software at scale for everyone. Chkk aims to empower developers to learn from others’ mistakes programmatically, and proactively preventing incidents from happening altogether. Their goal is to ensure mission-critical enterprise applications run disruption-free, efficiently, and securely.

Chkk’s vision is to strengthen Kubernetes infrastructure for mission-critical applications by providing tools to eliminate availability risks, streamline upgrades, and offer comprehensive visibility. Their platform assures proactive risk management, efficient and safe upgrade processes, and consolidated insights to ensure continuous, safe, and efficient operations. Chkk aims to save engineering teams’ time and resources, allowing them to focus on innovation rather than maintenance.
