Scale Computing
Scale Computing builds SC//Platform, an edge-computing and hyperconverged infrastructure stack made up of SC//HyperCore (a self-healing KVM-based virtualization and storage OS that runs on clustered appliance nodes) and SC//Fleet Manager (a cloud console that monitors, updates and orchestrates thousands of distributed HyperCore clusters, VMs and containerized edge applications from one place). The programmable surface is split the same way: SC//HyperCore exposes an on-appliance REST API at /rest/v1 on each clustered node for VM, disk, network, snapshot and replication automation, while SC//Fleet Manager exposes a public, API-key-authenticated cloud REST API at api.scalecomputing.com for fleet-wide clusters, virtual machines, conditions, metrics, organization activity and API-key management. Scale Computing also ships and maintains a first-party Ansible collection and Terraform provider for HyperCore, publishes REST API example scripts on GitHub, and defines a JSON Schema for Fleet Manager application manifests used by its edge application lifecycle management feature.
Scale Computing publishes 18 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including API Keys API, Clusters API, Conditions API, and 15 more. Tagged areas include Edge Computing, Hyperconverged Infrastructure, Virtualization, Infrastructure Management, and Fleet Management.
The Scale Computing catalog on APIs.io includes 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
Scale Computing’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, support, engineering blog, pricing, authentication, and 25 more developer resources.

Kin Score
Markets this provider is in provisional
The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.
| Market | Position | Depth | Registered MCP server | Declares compatibility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Configuration-Management Content Registries (Ansible Galaxy, Chef Supermarket) | builds-on | 17.2 (thin) | - | - |
Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.
Standards implemented 2
Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.
