Kubernetes at Enterprise Scale
​
Experience a certified, managed Kubernetes solution, built for creating a cluster of compute hosts to deploy and manage containerized apps on IBM Cloud®. IBM manages the master, freeing you from having to administer the host OS, container runtime and Kubernetes version-update process.
Features Cloud Kubernetes Service
Native Kubernetes
Use tools and APIs you know for a consistent experience, even working across cloud infrastructures.
Leverage IBM Watson
Integrate cognitive solutions with a variety of IBM Watson® APIs to extend the power of your apps.
Self-healing containers
Configure a custom Kubernetes cluster that autoscales and recovers containers per defined policies.
Secure clusters
Guard your cluster infrastructure, isolate compute resources and ensure compliance in deployments.
Intelligent scheduling
Automatically deploy containers on compute hosts based on available resources across the cluster.
Logging and monitoring
Use the built-in logging and metrics service to monitor the performance of clusters and containers.
Deploy a scalable web app​
Learn how to scaffold a web app, run it locally in a container, then deploy it to an IBM Cloud Kubernetes cluster. Also learn how to bind a custom domain, monitor the health of the environment and scale.
Analyze logs, monitor apps
Learn how to create a cluster and configure the log analysis and monitoring services. Then, deploy an app to the cluster, view and analyze logs with Kibana and view health and metrics with Grafana.
Deploy apps continuously
Learn how to set up a CI/CD pipeline for containerized apps running in Kubernetes. This use case covers the setup of source control, build, test and deploy and integrating security scanners, analytics and more.
Create Kubernetes clusters
Create your own cluster of compute hosts where you can deploy and manage containerized apps on IBM Cloud. Follow a tutorial, or set up your own custom cluster environment.
