Compare the Top Microservices Tools for Linux as of April 2025

What are Microservices Tools for Linux?

Microservices tools and frameworks are comprehensive platforms and libraries that assist in the development and management of microservices-based applications. These tools and frameworks offer essential features such as service discovery, fault tolerance, load balancing, and API management to streamline the design of microservices architectures. They support developers in creating services that are decoupled, independently deployable, and scalable. Additionally, these frameworks often come with built-in support for integrating with container orchestration systems like Kubernetes and Docker. By using these tools and frameworks, teams can enhance the resilience, scalability, and maintainability of their applications. Compare and read user reviews of the best Microservices tools for Linux currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.

    Portainer Business
    Portainer is an intuitive container management platform for Docker, Kubernetes, and Edge-based environments. With a smart UI, Portainer enables you to build, deploy, manage, and secure your containerized environments with ease. It makes container adoption easier for the whole team and reduces time-to-value on Kubernetes and Docker/Swarm. With a simple GUI and a comprehensive API, the product makes it easy for engineers to deploy and manage container-based apps, triage issues, automate CI/CD workflows and set up CaaS (container-as-a-service) environments regardless of hosting environment or K8s distro. Portainer Business is designed to be used in a team environment with multiple users and clusters. The product includes a range of security features, including RBAC, OAuth integration, and logging - making it suitable for use in complex production environments. Portainer also allows you to set up GitOps automation for deployment of your apps to Docker and K8s based on Git repos.

    Martini

    Martini

    TORO Cloud

    Join the growing community of integration ninjas using Martini™ to integrate faster. Gloop eliminates the grunt work required when creating services for application and data integration, building APIs, and managing data. Gloop makes it easy to perform common development tasks such as mapping and transforming data, iterating over arrays, executing if-else and switch-case logic, invoking external code, running jobs in parallel, and so much more. Flux is Martini’s event based workflow engine for managing asynchronous workflows and event based triggers of Gloop microservices. With Flux you can invoke Gloop microservices sequentially, passing the output of one to the other, and/or in parallel, and Flux will maintain the state of each execution for you. Flux workflows are created visually by dragging Flux states onto a canvas and selecting the Gloop microservice you would like executed when the state is invoked.

    Telepresence

    Telepresence

    Ambassador Labs

    Telepresence streamlines your local development process, enabling immediate feedback. You can launch your local environment on your laptop, equipped with your preferred tools, while Telepresence seamlessly connects them to the microservices and test databases they rely on. It simplifies and expedites collaborative development, debugging, and testing within Kubernetes environments by establishing a seamless connection between your local machine and shared remote Kubernetes clusters. Why Telepresence: Faster feedback loops: Spend less time building, containerizing, and deploying code. Get immediate feedback on code changes by running your service in the cloud from your local machine. Shift testing left: Create a remote-to-local debugging experience. Catch bugs pre-production without the configuration headache of remote debugging. Deliver better, faster user experience: Get new features and applications into the hands of users faster and more frequently.

    Gilhari

    Gilhari

    Software Tree

    We’re thrilled to announce that Software Tree has won a 2021 DEVIES Award in the code frameworks/libraries category for its innovative Gilhari microservice framework. Gilhari makes it easy for developers to quickly develop high-performance, database-agnostic, and Docker-compatible RESTful applications that need to interact with JSON data in cloud or on-premises. The object-oriented world and the relational world are conceptually different. Manually writing the verbose mapping logic to bridge the gap between the object-oriented and relational artifacts is tedious and time-consuming. Software Tree’s ORM technology frameworks are lightweight in their design and implementation and provide a lightweight feel in their usage. The lightweight aspects of our ORM technology do not compromise on its power and functionality, though. This results in faster development and deployment of modern applications that require flexible object-oriented access to relational data.
