Open source cloud IDE platform that runs workspaces on Kubernetes
Updated
Eclipse Che is an open source, cloud-native development platform for engineering teams that runs IDEs on Kubernetes so developers can code from a browser. You create a workspace from a Git repository or sample, and the environment is defined in a devfile. The project is licensed under the Eclipse Public License 2.0.
Che is installed on a public or private Kubernetes cluster, with guides for Minikube and OpenShift. Developers open a Git repository, Che builds the workspace from the devfile, and the IDE runs in the cluster. A Red Hat-hosted service with starter workspaces for Java, Go, Python and React is available to try.
Platform teams that want standardized, reproducible developer environments and central control of code and dependencies use Che. It is relevant to organizations already running Kubernetes or OpenShift.
Eclipse Che is open source software and free to install under the Eclipse Public License 2.0. Costs come from the Kubernetes infrastructure you run it on. The vendor site does not list paid plans.
Che works with Git repositories, Visual Studio Code, JetBrains IDEs, Kubernetes and OpenShift. Devfile is a CNCF project contributed by Red Hat, AWS and JetBrains.
Infisical is a secrets management tool, not a dev environment, so it is a loose comparison. CockroachDB is a distributed database and LambdaTest a testing cloud, both in different categories. SigNoz is open source observability. Che's closest peers are other cloud development environments.
