Why NetActuate Managed Kubernetes

Scale horizontally and vertically

Easily upgrade kubernetes and scale your cluster up or down, both horizontally (quantity of workers) and vertically (resource allocations).

Integrated Anycast Orchestration

Deploy "Anycast through compute," leveraging our global routing knowledge to reach users faster than traditional unicast.

Massive BGP Peering

Easily connect to our footprint of over 4,000 peers on the same network that power 60% of the world's top-level domains (TLDs).

Built for Global Reach

Provision highly available clusters on-demand in any global location to place workloads at the edge of the user experience.

Advanced Connectivity

Seamlessly integrate Kubernetes pods with bare metal, private cloud, or other hyperscalers via Cloud Router and dedicated cloud on-ramps.

Data Sovereignty

Use our global footprint (including 10 locations across Europe) to keep data compliant with local regulations.

How Managed Kubernetes Works

01
Select Your Location
Choose from our busiest global markets or trigger an automated on-demand deployment in a new region.
02
Configure Your Cluster
Define your worker node range and scaling requirements through our simplified portal interface.
03
Deploy and Orchestrate
Access your cluster via kubectl or the integrated dashboard to start running global, containerized workloads.
04
Monitor and Manage
View and adjust your K8s deployments in real time.

Common Use Cases

Common scenarios to consider Managed Kubernetes include the following.

Anycast Microservices

Deploy global services that respond from the nearest edge location via BGP Anycast

Hybrid Cloud Networking

Link K8s workloads to private bare metal or co-located hardware using our high-speed interconnects

High Availability and Reliability

Add multi-level redundancy and automatic updates for minimized downtime

Application Scaling

Graduate from single VMs to resilient, auto-scaling containerized environments

Global Microservices

Deploy consistent environments across multiple global POPs for low-latency application delivery

DevOps Efficiency

Standardize deployment pipelines using familiar Kubernetes tooling and automated lifecycle management

Pricing

Worker Nodes

Customers only pay for the worker node VMs they use, billed at standard NetActuate compute rates.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Managed Kubernetes?

Managed Kubernetes uses a hosted control plane for provisioning of the underlying K8s infrastructure, allowing organizations to deploy and scale containerized applications without having to manage cluster operations.

What makes NetActuate’s network different for Kubernetes?

Most clouds treat the network as a basic utility. NetActuate is the 4th largest BGP peered network in the world, providing "Anycast through compute" to ensure your Kubernetes workloads are always on the fastest path to your users. Speak with NetActuate engineers directly to ensure seamless operations.

Do I have access to the underlying servers with Managed Kubernetes?

Yes. Unlike many hyperscalers, NetActuate provides full SSH access to your worker node VMs.

Are native load balancers supported with Managed Kubernetes?

Currently, advanced users can manually configure BGP or Anycast within their clusters. VPC integrations and native load balancers are on the product roadmap.
