Managed Kubernetes

Kubernetes has become the standard for container orchestration — but operating a production cluster is a full-time discipline. Control plane management, node upgrades, networking, storage classes, ingress controllers and security policies demand dedicated expertise. innade.cloud managed Kubernetes gives you the power of K8s with the control plane, upgrades and baseline operations handled by engineers who run production clusters daily, including those powering OSCA Solutions products.

Ideal For

Teams outgrowing Docker Compose on VPS
SaaS products requiring auto-scaling and self-healing
Organisations adopting microservices architecture
DevOps teams wanting GitOps-driven deployments
Companies migrating from self-managed K8s clusters
AI workloads needing GPU-aware orchestration

Overview

Self-managed Kubernetes sounds appealing until you spend weeks configuring etcd backups, CNI plugins, ingress controllers and certificate management — before deploying a single application. Managed Kubernetes removes that operational burden while preserving the flexibility and portability that make K8s the industry standard.

innade.cloud provisions and maintains your Kubernetes clusters: control plane availability, node pool management, Kubernetes version upgrades and core add-ons like ingress, cert-manager and monitoring agents. You deploy applications via Helm charts or GitOps workflows; we ensure the platform beneath them is reliable, secure and up to date.

Our managed Kubernetes integrates natively with the innade.cloud platform — managed databases for persistent data, private networking for cluster communication, monitoring for observability and backup services for etcd and persistent volume protection.

What's Included

Managed control planeHighly available Kubernetes API server, etcd and scheduler — maintained by us.
Worker node poolsConfigurable node groups with auto-scaling based on workload demand.
Helm chart supportDeploy applications using the standard Helm package manager.
GitOps workflowsArgoCD or Flux integration for declarative, version-controlled deployments.
Ingress & TLSLoad balancing, ingress controllers and automatic certificate provisioning.
Cluster upgradesManaged Kubernetes version upgrades with minimal application disruption.
Monitoring integrationPre-configured metrics collection and alerting for cluster health.
Network policiesBaseline network segmentation and security policy templates.

Benefits

Managed Kubernetes delivers container orchestration benefits without the operational tax of running your own control plane.

Faster time to productionDeploy applications in days, not months of cluster setup.
Auto-scaling & self-healingApplications scale with demand and recover from node failures automatically.
GitOps reliabilityDeclarative deployments with full audit trail and easy rollbacks.
Reduced operational costNo dedicated platform engineering team required for cluster operations.
Platform-native integrationDatabases, networking, monitoring and security from one provider.

Common Use Cases

We support standard Kubernetes tooling and CNCF ecosystem projects. Bring your existing Helm charts, Docker images and GitOps repositories — or let us help you containerise and deploy applications that currently run on VPS or bare metal.

Grow with innade.cloud: Managed Kubernetes extends Containers & DevOps capabilities for production orchestration. Pair with Managed Databases for stateful services, Monitoring & Reliability for full observability, and AI Infrastructure for GPU-aware node pools running inference workloads.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Containers & DevOps and Managed Kubernetes?

Containers & DevOps covers Docker, CI/CD pipelines and container registry — the building blocks. Managed Kubernetes adds production-grade orchestration: auto-scaling, self-healing, service discovery and multi-node scheduling. Most teams start with containers on VPS and adopt Kubernetes when orchestration complexity warrants it.

Do you support Helm and GitOps?

Yes. Helm is the standard deployment mechanism for applications on our clusters. GitOps via ArgoCD or Flux is available for teams wanting declarative, version-controlled deployment workflows with automatic synchronisation from Git repositories.

Who manages Kubernetes version upgrades?

We do. Control plane and node upgrades are managed as part of the service, with advance notification and scheduling to minimise application disruption. You focus on your applications; we maintain the platform.

Can I migrate an existing Kubernetes cluster?

Yes. We assist with workload migration from self-managed or other cloud provider clusters. Application manifests, Helm charts and container images transfer directly — we handle cluster provisioning and networking on the innade.cloud side.

Is GPU support available for AI workloads?

Yes. GPU-enabled node pools are available for AI inference and training workloads. These integrate with our AI Infrastructure service for complete private AI deployment on Kubernetes.
