Kowabunga

kowabunga-cloud
France

Kowabunga is built from the ground up to provide a lightweight, robust, and sovereign alternative for virtualization and infrastructure management. Our commitment is absolute: Kowabunga is free, royalty-free, and will always remain open source.

While the code is free to use, building, maintaining, and testing production-grade infrastructure software requires dedicated time and resources. By sponsoring Kowabunga, you help ensure:

  • Active maintenance, security patching, and upstream dependency updates.
  • Dedicated, high-priority support for your team’s deployment questions and edge-case troubleshooting.
  • Independence and long-term viability driven entirely by community and sponsor needs rather than venture capital pressures.

Your sponsorships make a difference because although open source work can be satisfying, it is often a drain on mental, emotional, and physical energy. In addition to making full-time development possible, sponsors provide much-needed relief, leading to happier, healthier, less-stressed developers.

Whether you are running Kowabunga in a home lab or running mission-critical workloads, your backing makes a measurable difference.

Our goals for Kowabunga:

  • Get control back of your infrastructure
  • Stop empowering Cloud hyperscalers
  • Make a lasting, positive impact
  • Foster a sense of community and goodwill

Some sponsor tiers get discounted professional services, which include:

  • Development
  • Consulting
  • Training
  • Presenting

Thank you for your support. Let's do this!
