Clawcloud Run aims to build a Kubernetes-based cloud operating system that maximally abstracts Kubernetes complexity from general users during system interaction, while delivering simple and intuitive functionality. Concurrently, it provides cloud computing professionals with specialized, high-efficiency tools to accomplish advanced tasks.
To achieve this dual objective, Clawcloud Run adopts an "Everything-as-an-Application" paradigm. Each system capability is abstracted as independent yet interoperable applications. Users with varying requirements and objectives interact with distinct applications to fulfill specific functions, maintaining an operational experience consistent with single-machine operating system interactions. This design ensures both accessibility for novice users and extensibility for expert practitioners.
The high-level architecture of Clawcloud Run is structured as follows:
Thus, Clawcloud Run can be defined as Kubernetes + a suite of applications.
Applications on Clawcloud Run adopt a frontend-backend decoupled architecture, with frontends supporting Server-Side Rendering (SSR). This design allows applications to operate as standalone services independent of the monolithic Clawcloud Run system.
Application Architecture and Interactions (illustrated via App Launchpad and Terminal applications):
Each application’s frontend interacts with multiple APIs:
Kubernetes Native API for basic operations
Kubernetes CRD API for complex logic execution
Database APIs for data persistence and retrieval
Service APIs from cluster-deployed specialized applications for domain-specific workflows
Consequently, Clawcloud Run can be expressed as: Clawcloud Run = Kubernetes + a suite of applications = "Frontend systems + Kubernetes API + Kubernetes CRD API + Database API + Service API".
