1. See what is free, and what needs the commercial product
Pulling a public Catalog package is anonymous, so the first three rows need no ConfigHub account or registry login.
| Capability | Free, local | Free account | Commercial |
|---|---|---|---|
| Browse the Catalog and pull a public package | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Render it locally and read the exact objects | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Deploy with your own kubectl, Flux, or Argo CD | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| Keep the reviewed result as shared, versioned configuration | No | Yes | Yes |
| Create environment, region, or customer variants | No | Yes | Yes |
| Promote a change and publish a release OCI | No | Yes | Yes |
| Use private charts, private values, or a custom catalog | No | No | Yes |
| Add teams, approvals, and policy gates | No | No | Yes |
| Scan, patch, promote, and observe many applications at once | No | No | Yes |
| Get production support, older-version support, or an SLA | No | No | Yes |
Payment starts at the first private or team need: a private chart, private values, a team approval, a fleet-scale operation, or a production support commitment.
The commercial product comes as a hosted service you sign up for yourself and as a standalone enterprise product; pricing for both is on request. Availability can differ between the two editions, so check with ConfigHub for current product, support, and policy details.
Sign up for ConfigHub or ask about the enterprise product. Follow the official ConfigHub tutorial for one component, a change, and a promotion to production.
The local tools work today. A hosted path without sign-in is planned rather than shipped. Run it with Flux, Argo CD, or kubectl shows what works without an account.
2. Check what exists today
Each count below covers the 245 recorded base variants, each tested on its own. The counts stay separate rather than adding up to a production claim.

3. Read the supporting detail
Is a public chart missing, or does its output differ from Helm? Send a missing or broken public chart.
These project records explain support, commercial planning, no-server work, and the limits of current claims.
