Managed Kubernetes features
Resilience through auto-scaling | Auto-scaling ensures the high availability of your Kubernetes deployments while keeping costs down. It comes into play when a node’s resources aren’t sufficient to run the containers and Kubernetes needs to add more worker nodes to the pool. |
Precisely define the number of nodes | The initial quantity, the maximum and the minimum number of nodes within a node pool can all be defined. This reduces costs and stops the service from draining too many resources, while ensuring that the platform has sufficient capacity to start. This is useful if the service has temporary spikes which last for less time than it would take to scale up. |
Futureproof storage | Fully integrated persistent data storage is available thanks to integration into the IONOS Cloud ecosystem. The pre-installed CSI-based IONOS storage class allows you to provision stateful applications and stateless web servers. Persistent volumes are automatically created through a persistent volume claim. |
Easy integration and automation | For the automation needed in everyday operations, the integration of Kubernetes into CI/CD is done via the Cloud API. IONOS Cloud provides various SDKs and config management tools that simplify the integration of IONOS Cloud and Managed Kubernetes. |

Managed Kubernetes
IONOS, Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, the Google Cloud Platform and other cloud providers offer Kubernetes-as-a-Service. However, their aims and approaches sometimes vary considerably. The quality of service and the platform's stability, performance, and active participation within the cloud-native community are all distinguishing factors.
IONOS focuses on managed services that simplify the use of software containers and Kubernetes as an orchestration tool. The IONOS Cloud prides itself in particular on its proximity to the end-user. The user's feedback is continuously incorporated into Managed Kubernetes' further development.

IONOS focuses on managed services that simplify the use of software containers and Kubernetes as an orchestration tool. The IONOS Cloud prides itself in particular on its proximity to the end-user. The user's feedback is continuously incorporated into Managed Kubernetes' further development.
A central component of Managed Kubernetes is visual cluster and node pool management. On the one hand, Managed Kubernetes can be managed conveniently via the Kubernetes API, but it is also firmly integrated into IONOS Cloud's Data Center Designer (DCD). DCD enables you to create Kubernetes clusters and node pools, or delete them directly from the IONOS Cloud graphical user interface. The master node remains geographically redundant, while the customer decides where to set up their node pools.
The DCD integration perfectly rounds off Kubernetes' possible applications in the IONOS Cloud environment. It enables a quick overview of the existing Managed Kubernetes clusters at any time – both graphically in the DCD and via a large number of API calls.
Exciting new functions are constantly being introduced. In the future, users will be able to…
- select versions of Kubernetes directly in the Data Center Designer (DCD) and make them available for clusters
- use an upgrade button to install the latest version of Kubernetes
- set a preferred time window for patch version updates (exception: urgent security updates cannot be delayed)
- carry out all the above settings either by cluster or by node pool
- replace non-functioning nodes via Auto Repair

IONOS Cloud offers Managed Kubernetes as a free service. You only pay for computing and storage resources that the Kubernetes nodes need for containers. Thanks to the transparent pricing structure of IONOS Cloud Compute Engine, there are only four price points:
- Computing: cores from £0.02 per hour
- RAM: £0.0045 per GB per hour
- Block Storage: from £0.04 per GB per 30 days (choose from HDD or SSD)
- Traffic: from £0.03 per GB outgoing data transfer
