Wayfinder
The developer platform for Kubernetes.
Overview
Wayfinder by Appvia is an internal developer platform (IDP) that provides a self-service layer on top of Kubernetes. It aims to abstract away the complexity of cloud-native infrastructure for developers. While its primary goal is simplifying workflows, it can contribute to rollback automation by providing standardized, repeatable deployment processes. A rollback would typically involve redeploying a previous, versioned application package through the Wayfinder interface or CLI, ensuring the process is consistent and safe.
