Orchestrate your containers to work with each other.
Unlike other Kubernetes services, VKE has no management fee.
Easily scale your applications as workloads increase.
Automatic health checking and failover.
Kubernetes maximizes instances by efficiently allocating applications to cluster nodes.
Once deployed, they will never change state.
Vultr Kubernetes Engine (VKE) is certified by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) Certified Kubernetes Conformance Program. You can quickly move your workloads to Vultr because VKE conforms to portability standards. Vultr is a silver sponsor of the CNCF, where Kubernetes is a Graduated Project.
Access and deploy on Vultr Kubernetes Engine directly through the Cluster API for a seamless, familiar experience. Get moving quicker and by using the same YAML configuration files used for deploying on other platforms.
The Vultr Cloud Controller Manager (CCM) connects Vultr features to your Kubernetes cluster. The CCM monitors the node's state and assigns their IP addresses. The CCM automatically deploys managed Load Balancers as needed for your Kubernetes Load Balancer/Ingress services.
Create persistent volumes for Kubernetes! The Container Storage Interface (CSI) Driver connects your Kubernetes cluster with Vultr’s high-speed block storage.
Condor is a self-managed solution that allows you to manage and configure the control plane and other components as you want.
Use our Helm Charts to streamline Vultr CCM and CSI installation.
External DNS synchronizes exposed Kubernetes Services and Ingresses with Vultr’s DNS.
Use cert-manager to automate the management and issuance of TLS certificates from various issuing sources.
Automatically adjust the size of your Kubernetes Cluster so all pods have a place to run without wasted nodes.
Our declarative APIs and tooling simplify provisioning, upgrading, and operating multiple Kubernetes clusters.

The Vultr Kubernetes Engine is a fully-managed product offering with predictable pricing that makes Kubernetes easy to use. Vultr manages the control plane and worker nodes and provides integration with other managed services such as Load Balancers, Block Storage, and DNS.
The Vultr Kubernetes Engine includes the managed control plane free of charge. You pay for the Worker Nodes, Load Balancers, and Block Storage resources you deploy. Worker nodes and Load Balancers run on Vultr cloud server instances of your choice with 2 GB of RAM or more. See our hourly rates.
Kubernetes uses Vultr cloud servers. It does not support Bare Metal servers.
We have two storage classes available through our CSI:
Yes, ETCD on VKE is encrypted and backed up regularly.
