PatchPilot

PatchPilot is a web app (with optional CLI agent) that orchestrates OS and critical package patching across cloud VMs and Kubernetes nodes without causing surprise outages. It inventories instances, groups them by role/environment, and runs staged rollouts (canary → batch → full) with automatic health checks and instant rollback/cordon when error rates rise. It integrates with AWS SSM, Azure Update Manager, and GCP OS Config, but focuses on the missing layer: policy-driven scheduling, blast-radius control, and audit-ready reporting across multi-cloud and hybrid. The product is realistic: it does not “magically” fix broken patching; it makes patching operationally safe and provable, which is what teams actually struggle with. It targets teams that already have tools but lack consistent governance and confidence to patch frequently.
