Browsing the Marketplace#

The marketplace catalogue is accessed through your project's Kubernetes API endpoint. Every service available in the marketplace appears as a native Kubernetes resource type — no separate marketplace API or portal is required.

Discovering Available Services#

List all available services#

kubectl api-resources | grep cloud.stakater.com

This shows every service type your platform team has published. Example output:

NAME                  APIVERSION                          NAMESPACED   KIND
virtualmachines       compute.cloud.stakater.com/v1       true         VirtualMachine
openshiftclusters     kubernetes.cloud.stakater.com/v1    true         OpenShiftCluster

The Built-in Catalogue#

SCO ships with the following services out of the box:

Platform teams can extend this catalogue with any additional services — databases, message queues, AI/ML platforms, and more. Custom services appear alongside the built-in offerings in the same kubectl api-resources output.
