StormForge

StormForge provides machine learning-based Kubernetes resource optimization (rightsizing) for reducing cloud infrastructure costs while maintaining application performance. The Optimize Live product deploys an agent to Kubernetes clusters that collects workload metrics, applies ML algorithms, and generates CPU and memory recommendations for containers. Recommendations can be applied automatically, on-demand, or exported as Kubernetes patches for GitOps workflows. StormForge supports Deployments, StatefulSets, DaemonSets, ReplicaSets, and custom workload types, and integrates with Karpenter, HPA, VPA, Argo CD, and APM tools.

StormForge publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Cloud Cost Optimization, DevOps, FinOps, Kubernetes, and Machine-Learning.

The StormForge catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

StormForge’s developer surface includes documentation, pricing, engineering blog, getting-started guide, signup flow, sandbox, and 8 more developer resources.

scored 2026-09-14 · rubric v0.22.0
Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/stormforge: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.
