Telepresence Business vs. OSS

Widely-adopted solution for fast local development of Kubernetes applications

Telepresence Business

A widely adopted development tool for fast local development of Kubernetes applications. Built on the CNCF Telepresence project, with extended features to support teams of developers and increase both fast feedback and collaboration. Telepresence Business includes access to cloud dashboards, auditing capability, increased security configuration for platform teams, and world-class product support from Ambassador’s Customer Support team.

Telepresence OSS

An open source tool that allows individual Kubernetes developers to test and debug cloud native applications faster. Built to speed up the inner dev loop with containers, allow the continued usage of local debugging tools (IDE, debugger, etc.), and seamlessly join remote-to-local environments for fast feedback. Created by Ambassador Labs and is now a CNCF Sandbox project.
