UpCloudContainers & KubernetesCloud infrastructure with managed Kubernetes option
Key capabilities
- Clusters: Provision and operate a supported Kubernetes cluster.
- Networking: Expose services through a suitable load-balancer setup.
- Storage: Plan persistent volumes for stateful workloads.
Where UpCloud fits
Managed Kubernetes is the relevant container product; other UpCloud infrastructure may be needed around it.
Positioning and limitations
Consider Managed Kubernetes when applications already justify cluster operations. Check node sizing, storage, ingress and recovery duties; a managed control plane does not remove application and data ownership.
A trial should redeploy a service after a node failure and verify that data and external access behave as expected.
