What is SUSE Rancher?
Rancher is an open-source software that enables organizations to deploy and manage Kubernetes at scale, on any infrastructure across the data center, cloud, branch offices, and the network edge. According to the vendor, Rancher centrally manages Kubernetes clusters across the organization in order to ensure security and accelerate transformation. Rancher is also available hosted. Hosted Rancher is a fully managed Rancher control plane - presented as the fastest, most cost-effective path to multi-cluster Kubernetes in an enterprise.
Available as an additional option, Rancher Kubernetes Engine (RKE) is a CNCF-certified Kubernetes distribution that runs entirely within Docker containers. It is designed to solve the common frustration of installation complexity with Kubernetes by removing most host dependencies and presenting a stable path for deployment, upgrades, and rollbacks.

Gather Up Your Cloud Cattle with Rancher
Customers of Datalounges build, maintain and manage cloud native applications on a variety of Kubernetes platforms. Often these are provided by hyper scalers such as Google and AmazonWeb Services. A small environment is easy for customers to keep under control, but as the use cases start varying and requirements for security, configuration management and more common ops-related problems arise, SUSE Rancher is introduced to the equation to maintain those platforms. Key use cases may include controlled delivery of apps from a trusted source and then their lifecycle or controlling the configurations of the Kubernetes environments to keep them similar enough over their lifecycle. Mainly it is a scaling thing though. Rancher provides a good basis for skilled engineers to automate and those with less experience to administrate in scale.
- Manages users and access.
- Maintains Kubernetes configurations.
- Provides admin visibility to cluster health.
- Self-service of developers needs either tooling or improvement
- The observability-like elastic component is not flexible to fit into the rest of the stack
- Fleet GitOps functionality could use improvement to compete with leading vendors
- Kept customer's costs in control for cloud native workloads.
- Allowed for faster delivery of updates and upgrades.
- Better visibility into the health of Kubernetes capacity.
