# CIQ Stratum Pro Discussions

Platform teams running several Kubernetes clusters, from GPU clusters to the general fleet, can manage them in one web interface under one sign-on. CIQ Stratum Pro, from CIQ, is the commercial version built on the open source CIQ Stratum Kubernetes Engine (SKE), which is Certified Kubernetes. CIQ Stratum Pro adds fleet management across SKE clusters, single sign-on through the customer's identity provider, an optional CIS hardening profile with a per-control check, a curated app catalog, and support from CIQ. Its fleet agent connects outbound only, so clusters need no inbound ports. Each cluster installs, joins, upgrades, and snapshots from one signed binary built from unmodified upstream source, and rolling upgrades check node health at each step and roll back a node that fails. Clusters run on any Enterprise Linux 9 or later distribution, on amd64 and arm64, and a built-in MCP server lets AI agents work with each cluster within limits the operator sets.
