# Porter
### Kubernetes powered PaaS that runs in your own cloud

A traditional PaaS like Heroku is great for minimizing unnecessary DevOps work but doesn't offer enough flexibility as your applications grow. Custom network rules, resource constraints, and cost are common reasons developers move their applications off Heroku beyond a certain scale.

Porter brings the simplicity of a traditional PaaS to your own cloud provider while preserving the configurability of Kubernetes. Porter is built on top of a popular Kubernetes package manager `helm` and is compatible with standard Kubernetes management tools like `kubectl`, preparing your infra for mature DevOps work from day one.
