Why RearPortal?

The problems it solves!

Stay Up To Date With Upstream Backstage

RearPortal ensures automatic updates for your Backstage instance

According to Gartner’s report on Developer Portals, setting up and managing Backstage requires considerable effort. RearPortal addresses these challenges by providing a production-grade Backstage instance that is continuously upgraded, secured with SSO (Single Sign-On), and hosted on dedicated infrastructure. To mitigate potential risks associated with Scaffolder actions, RearPortal employs ephemeral environments, addressing a common concern for Open Source adopters.

Get Open-Source Plugins Out-of-the-Box

RearPortal empowers Backstage with no-code management capabilities

Benefit from the constant stream of new Backstage plugins and features, thanks to an active community of contributors. RearPortal seamlessly integrates these updates while addressing challenges like Git rate limits.

With RearPortal, you can effortlessly manage plugins and integrations through a user-friendly interface, allowing you to control access and permissions. Additionally, RearPortal offers advanced debugging capabilities, simplifying the process of navigating any unexpected issues that may arise.

Customize your Developer Portal to reflect your unique identity.

With RearPortal, you can effortlessly install private plugins and renderers

To ensure the success of your Backstage Developer Platform, it’s crucial to customize it according to your developers’ workflow. RearPortal allows you to incorporate your own Backstage plugins, enabling seamless integration of internal systems into your Developer Portal.

Additionally, RearPortal provides the flexibility to utilize your preferred API documentation renderer, ensuring that your documentation is presented precisely as you desire within Backstage.

Seamlessly connect with your Kubernetes cluster

RearPortal establishes a connection to a multi-cloud Kubernetes (K8s) cluster using a broker

RearPortal leverages a Broker to seamlessly connect with your internal APIs, such as Kubernetes clusters and on-premises services. This integration ensures secure access to your endpoints while safeguarding them from exposure to the public internet.

The broker, built on open-source code, comes equipped with an audit log and outbound egress capabilities. This provides you with the assurance that access is restricted according to your specific requirements, instilling confidence in the security of your system.

The onboarded engineer can find the entire software catalogue and its dependency at a single entry point. With access to the Portal, the engineer has immediate access to all source code, documentation, and third-party tools.

Reduction In Infrastructure Provisioning Time

The time taken for setting up boilerplate code is reduced effectively with template repositories. RearPortal offers templates in various programming languages and frameworks with instilled best practices.

Reduction In Repository Creation Time

Single Push-Button Deployments are possible with Scaffolder. RearPortal offers Production Grade GitOps templates. Infrastructure Provision is made fast and easy - with no bottlenecks on Cloud Engineers.

Features of RearPortal

Common Toolset

Different teams use different tools for the same purpose, making it difficult to have a standardised platform visible to everyone.

Standardisation

Build your software templates, using which engineers can spin off new project development with built-in best practices.

Accountability

It is cumbersome to track the performance of working software unless otherwise managed via NOC and SRE specs.

Uniformity

Each team can view all the services and other software components (Libraries, ML Models, etc.) and their resources, including deployments, pipelines, pull requests, etc.

Centralized

RearPortal provides visibility into all the services built or managed by a team and, by extension, the entire organisation all in one place.

Service Discoverability

It is challenging to analyse the software components sitting in the dark corners of an organisation that needs to be deprecated.

Single Pane of Glass

The modern technology landscape with various tools, environments, and multiple self-organising teams makes it difficult to keep track of the artefacts' quality, process, and functional viability.

Maintainable Technical Documentation

With an inbuilt documentation portal, a team can document their service in markdown and periodically store it next to the code synchronised with a pull-based mechanism.

Our Unique Offering

RearPortal builds on top of an open-source platform, and the offering includes Production-Grade Infrastructure as Code.

RearPortal enables rapidly setting up the Managed Portal for your organisation in the cloud provider of your choice.

Training

As part of the incubation process, we conduct a two-week workshop for the organisation. The interactive sessions smoothen the journey of adoption.

Plugins
