Use this page to find the type of solution that best fits your needs.
|
||||
Depending on your requirements such as ease of maintenance, security, control, available resources, and level of expertise to operate and manage a Kubernetes cluster, there are various solutions available. You can deploy a Kubernetes cluster on a local machine, cloud, on-prem datacenter; or choose a managed Kubernetes cluster. You can also create custom solutions across a wide range of cloud providers, or bare metal environments.
|
||||
|
||||
Deciding where to run Kubernetes depends on what resources you have available
|
||||
and how much flexibility you need. You can run Kubernetes almost anywhere,
|
||||
from your laptop to VMs on a cloud provider to a rack of bare metal servers.
|
||||
You can also set up a fully-managed cluster by running a single command or craft
|
||||
your own customized cluster on your bare metal servers.
|
||||
You can create a Kubernetes cluster in learning and production environments.

## Local-machine Solutions
|
||||
## Learning environment
|
||||
|
||||
A local-machine solution is an easy way to get started with Kubernetes. You
|
||||
can create and test Kubernetes clusters without worrying about consuming cloud
|
||||
resources and quotas.
|
||||
If you want to get familiar with Kubernetes, you can use the Docker-based solutions. You can use tools that are supported by the Kubernetes community or the tools in the ecosystem to set up a Kubernetes cluster on a local machine.
|
||||
|
||||
You should pick a local solution if you want to:
|
||||
{{< table caption="Local machine solutions table that lists the tools supported by the community and the ecosystem to deploy Kubernetes." >}}
|
||||
|
||||
* Try or start learning about Kubernetes
|
||||
* Develop and test clusters locally
|
||||
|
||||
Pick a [local-machine solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#local-machine-solutions).
|
||||
|
||||
## Hosted Solutions
|
||||
|
||||
Hosted solutions are a convenient way to create and maintain Kubernetes clusters. They
|
||||
manage and operate your clusters so you don’t have to.
|
||||
|
||||
You should pick a hosted solution if you:
|
||||
|
||||
* Want a fully-managed solution
|
||||
* Want to focus on developing your apps or services
|
||||
* Don’t have dedicated site reliability engineering (SRE) team but want high availability
|
||||
* Don't have resources to host and monitor your clusters
|
||||
|
||||
Pick a [hosted solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#hosted-solutions).

|
||||
These solutions allow you to create Kubernetes clusters with only a few commands and
|
||||
are actively developed and have active community support. They can also be hosted on
|
||||
a range of Cloud IaaS providers, but they offer more freedom and flexibility in
|
||||
exchange for effort.
|
||||
## Production environment
|
||||
|
||||
You should pick a turnkey cloud solution if you:
|
||||
Some of the possible abstractions of a Kubernetes cluster are {{< glossary_tooltip text="applications" term_id="applications" >}}, {{< glossary_tooltip text="data plane" term_id="data-plane" >}}, {{< glossary_tooltip text="control plane" term_id="control-plane" >}}, {{< glossary_tooltip text="cluster infrastructure" term_id="cluster-infrastructure" >}}, and {{< glossary_tooltip text="cluster operations" term_id="cluster-operations" >}}.
|
||||
The following production environment solutions diagram lists the possible abstractions of a Kubernetes cluster and the level of expertise involved in managing the operations of a cluster.
|
||||
|
||||
* Want more control over your clusters than the hosted solutions allow
|
||||
* Want to take on more operations ownership
|
||||
Production environment solutions
|
||||
|
||||
Pick a [turnkey cloud solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#turnkey-cloud-solutions)
|
||||
{{< table caption="Production environment solutions table lists the providers and the solutions." >}}
|
||||
The following production environment solutions table lists the providers and the solutions that they offer.
|
||||
|
||||
## Turnkey – On-Premises Solutions
|
||||
|
||||
These solutions allow you to create Kubernetes clusters on your internal, secure,
|
||||
cloud network with only a few commands.
|
||||
|
||||
You should pick a on-prem turnkey cloud solution if you:
|
||||
|
||||
* Want to deploy clusters on your private cloud network
|
||||
* Have a dedicated SRE team
|
||||
* Have the resources to host and monitor your clusters
|
||||
|
||||
Pick an [on-prem turnkey cloud solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#on-premises-turnkey-cloud-solutions).
|
||||
|
||||
## Custom Solutions
|
||||
|
||||
Custom solutions give you the most freedom over your clusters but require the
|
||||
most expertise. These solutions range from bare-metal to cloud providers on
|
||||
different operating systems.
|
||||
|
||||
Pick a [custom solution](/docs/setup/pick-right-solution/#custom-solutions).
|
||||
|Providers | Managed | Turnkey cloud | On-prem datacenter | Custom (cloud) | Custom (On-premises VMs)| Custom (Bare Metal) |
