Fast and simple Kubernetes cluster deployments
Deploy Kubernetes clusters with our fully-managed container orchestration engine.
Linode Kubernetes Engine (LKE)
LKE is a fully-managed container orchestration engine for deploying and managing containerized applications and workloads. LKE combines Linode’s ease of use and simple pricing with infrastructure efficiency. You can now get your infrastructure and workloads up and running in minutes instead of days.
Easily Deploy and Manage
Using LKE, you can configure, provision, and manage your clusters in a few easy steps.
Enjoy Maximum Efficiency From Your Resources
Automatically get the most out of your resources. Seamlessly distribute containers across your cluster to ensure you get the most efficient utilization of your resources.
No Management Fees
You only pay for Linodes, NodeBalancers, and Block Storage services. You don’t pay a penny for your cluster’s master services. Amazon EKS & GKE charge a per cluster management fee of $.10/hour or $73/month.
Scale to Meet Demand
Create and destroy resources in real time based on resource limits with Horizontal Cluster Autoscaling. More efficiently manage node pools, resulting in highly available and stable applications.
Deploy Popular Apps Using Helm charts, Operators, and Controllers
Harness the strong open source ecosystem of Kubernetes tooling. LKE supports integration with popular K8s-related tools, such as Rancher, Helm, Operators, and more.
More Bundled Services
Each LKE cluster comes with a complimentary control plane – including API, scheduler, etcd, and resource controllers. Your clusters are not subject to a management fee.
LKE Demonstration
Linode Pricing
