Same :(
Is banzaicloud dead? Did Cisco finally kill it?

[tobypeschel]

It looks like Banzai Cloud was quietly killed by Cisco in late 2024.

The Helm chart repo hasn't been accessible since 3 October 2024, alongside their main sites (https://banzaicloud.com, https://banzai.cloud, https://banzaicloud.io).

No word from any past or present employees or other involved persons. I don't think it's coming back, so you should plan accordingly.
