Getting started with Kloude

Create your first managed Kubernetes cluster and connect it with kubeconfig.

Getting started with Kloude

Getting started

Kloude is a managed Kubernetes platform. You create clusters in the portal, attach storage and networking, push images to the registry, and connect with a standard kubeconfig without operating the control plane yourself.

What you get

  • Managed clusters with node pools you size and scale
  • Networking with VPC, public IPs, firewalls, and LoadBalancer services
  • Persistent disks for StatefulSets and databases
  • Container registry for your organization images
  • Monitoring for cluster health signals
  • Pay-as-you-go billing aligned to what you run

Suggested first path

  1. Open Clusters and create your first cluster (pick region, size, and network plugin).
  2. Download kubeconfig from the cluster page and verify with kubectl get nodes.
  3. Add an SSH key if you need host-level access patterns your node pools expect.
  4. Create a VPC (or use the default path your org provides) before attaching public endpoints.
  5. Push an image to Registry, then deploy a workload.

In the portal

Use the left sidebar: Overview, Clusters, Disks, Networking, Registry, SSH Keys, Monitoring, Billing, and Settings. Each section has a matching guide in this documentation.
