Projects from Italy

Apache Syncope is an Open Source system for managing digital identities in enterprise environments, implemented in Jakarta EE technology and released under the Apache 2.0 license.

A curated list of the best European open-source projects. The catalog that celebrates excellence and technological innovation made in Europe.

Capsule implements a multi-tenant and policy-based environment in your Kubernetes cluster. It is designed as a micro-services-based ecosystem with the minimalist approach, leveraging only on upstream Kubernetes.

SSL Certificate Management System (API UI)

Python framework to build AI agents and publish them on the web. Multi-user, multi-agent, extensible via plugins, supports MCP and A2A protocols.

datapizza-ai is a Python GenAI framework for building agents from development to production with minimal abstraction. It supports multi-provider LLMs (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Mistral), built-in OpenTelemetry tracing, modular RAG pipelines, and multi-agent orchestration. Built by the Italian Data & AI community Datapizza.

Distrobox is a shell tool by Italian developer Luca Di Maio that runs any Linux distribution inside a container in the terminal, with full host integration. Using Podman, Docker, or lilipod, it shares the home directory, display, audio, and USB devices — enabling seamless cross-distro software compatibility on any Linux system.

Freelens is a free and open-source graphical IDE for Kubernetes cluster management, forked from OpenLens to preserve a fully community-driven development. It delivers an intuitive cross-platform interface (macOS, Windows, Linux) with a rich extension ecosystem. Actively maintained by a European core team with a vendor-neutral, transparency-first philosophy aligned with cloud-native standards.

FusionCache is an easy to use, fast and robust hybrid cache with advanced resiliency features.

Build production-ready AI agents in minutes, not months. Grinning Cat is a multi-tenant microservice for deploying scalable chatbots with advanced RAG capabilities. Manage multiple chatbots with isolated settings, plugins, and LLMs. Process any document type - PDFs, images, audio, and more. Cloud-native and dockerized with single-command deployment.

Kamaji is an open-source Kubernetes Hosted Control Plane manager developed by Italian company Clastix and donated to the CNCF as a Sandbox project. It runs control plane components in pods rather than dedicated VMs, enabling multi-tenant managed Kubernetes at scale with significantly reduced operational overhead.

Medha is an asynchronous, high-performance semantic cache library designed specifically for Text-to-Query systems. Unlike traditional key-value caches that require exact string matches, Medha understands that "Show me the top 5 users" and "List the first five users" are the same question. It intercepts these queries and returns pre-calculated database queries (SQL, Cypher, etc.), bypassing the expensive and slow LLM generation step.

Moquette is a lightweight broker compliant with MQTT 5 and MQTT 3, easily encapsulated in other applications. The broker supports QoS 0, QoS 1 and QoS 2.

Neuron is the PHP Agentic Framework to build production-ready agentic applications. Connect components (LLMs, vector DBs, memory) to agents that can interact with your data. With its modular architecture it's best suited for building RAG, multi-agent workflows, or business process automations. We provide tools for the entire agentic application development lifecycle, from LLM interfaces, to data loading, to multi-agent orchestration, to monitoring and debugging.

Sveltos is a Kubernetes controller that automates the deployment of applications and configurations across large-scale fleets. By using declarative "ClusterProfiles," it identifies target clusters via labels and ensures they consistently run the required resources. It features an event-driven framework to detect and remediate configuration drift or health issues automatically. Ultimately, Sveltos simplifies multi-cluster management, making it an ideal "central brain" for edge and multi-cloud environments.

ScrapeGraphAI is a Python library for AI-powered web scraping that uses LLMs to extract structured data from websites, PDFs, and raw HTML via natural language queries. Built by an Italian team in Padua, it supports OpenAI, Gemini, Ollama, and Anthropic, eliminating the need for fragile CSS or XPath selectors.

Sossoldi is a free and open source wealth management / personal finance / Net Worth tracking app, made with Flutter.
