Why teams use it

  • Control plane: Use Scaleway's managed Kubernetes service.
  • Worker resources: Choose compatible instances and scaling settings.
  • Cloud integrations: Connect storage, registry and network services where required.
Core areas

Kapsule is the specific container product in a wider Scaleway infrastructure catalog.

Positioning

Evaluate Kapsule for a container estate that needs Kubernetes APIs and compatible operations. Confirm region, node, volume and backup choices for each application rather than assuming the cluster manages state for you.

Why it matters

The pilot should run a stateful and a stateless workload, then check upgrade and recovery procedures against the team's capacity.
