Kendis self-hosted: scaled agile planning behind your firewall

Run Kendis on your own infrastructure. Keep planning data inside your network, connect Jira or TFS that only your network can reach, and meet your own security and compliance rules, with the same Kendis you would use in the cloud.

  • Docker, OpenShift, Linux or Windows
  • LDAP sign-in
  • No external calls from Docker
Why self-host

Why teams run Kendis on their own infrastructure

Your data stays with you

Kendis runs on your own hardware or cloud account, so planning data never leaves your environment. The Docker edition makes no calls outside your enterprise network.

Reach Jira and TFS behind your firewall

Self-hosted Kendis can sync with a Jira or TFS that is only reachable inside your network, which Kendis Cloud cannot reach.

Meet your own mandates

Run Kendis under your government mandates, industry rules and internal security policies, with LDAP sign-in.

Upgrade on your schedule

Your administrator decides when to upgrade, with flexible upgrade policies for managing your technology stack.
