Introduction
Erda is an open-source platform created by Terminus to ensure the development of microservice applications. It provides DevOps, microservice governance, and multi-cloud management capabilities. The multi-cloud architecture based on Kubernetes and application-centric DevOps and microservice governance can make the development, operation, monitoring, and problem diagnosis of complex business applications simpler and more efficient.
Functional Architecture
Erda is mainly composed of the following parts:
- DevOps
- Microservice Governance, including Application Performance Management, Monitoring, Log Analysis, API Gateway, etc.
- Multi-Cloud Management
- Edge Computing
- FastData Management
Vision: Build any application, Deploy anywhere, Monitor anything

erda-ui
It is the graphical user portal of Erda platform built with React with the help of which users can work upon Erda platform very easily. It talks with erda backend services in RESTful APIs.
erda-proto
It defines a part of the communication protocols among erda backend services using Protocol Buffers. All the other protocols among erda backend services will be migrated here in the near future.
erda-infra
It is a lightweight microservices framework implements by golang. It provides many popular middleware providers such as Redis, KafKa, etcd, etc., so that developers can build a module-driven application quickly with help of it. It is also integrated into almost all the backend components in erda.
erda-actions
It holds the definition for the official Pipeline Actions of the Erda Action Marketplace as found at https://www.erda.cloud/market/action. A Pipeline Action plays as a mininal runnable unit in Erda Pipelines such as checking out source code in github, buiding a docker image, creating a deployment in a Kubernetes cluster etc.. You can find more information about Pipeline Actions here.
erda-addons
It holds the definition for the official Addons of the Erda Addon Marketplace as found at https://www.erda.cloud/market/addon. An Addon holds the configration of a middleware like MySQL, Redis, etc. or a third-party service and it can be shared to different environments of applications, so that developers would not need to import the same configurations again and again in different environments.
