Kubernetes
Managed Kubernetes infrastructure that removes the platform engineering burden
Provision production-ready clusters in Wodby Cloud, in your own cloud account, or on lean K3S infrastructure while managing everything from the same app delivery workflow.
Wodby turns Kubernetes into a usable delivery platform instead of a side project your team has to assemble and maintain. You can start on Wodby Cloud when you want the simplest hosted cluster option, bring your own managed Kubernetes when you want infrastructure in your account, or use K3S where a lower-cost footprint fits better.
Provision Kubernetes without turning cluster setup into a separate project
Managed clusters give teams a production-oriented base without forcing them to assemble every layer of the platform by hand.
Connect your cloud account once, then let Wodby standardize cluster creation, networking, and the surrounding platform setup. Teams keep infrastructure in their own account while avoiding a long detour into raw Kubernetes assembly work.
- Keep Kubernetes in your own cloud account while Wodby handles the platform baseline.
- Start from a stronger operational foundation instead of wiring ingress, observability, and shared services one by one.
- Move from provisioning to stack deployments faster because the infrastructure layer is already tied into Wodby workflows.
When you want to compare supported providers, K3S paths, and Wodby Cloud side by side, use the Kubernetes options page.
Start with Wodby Cloud when you do not want to bring your own cluster
Some teams want the Kubernetes workflow without setting up a separate provider account, cluster, or server first.
Wodby Cloud is Wodby's hosted cluster option. It gives you the same platform model for stacks, environments, and deployments, but keeps the cluster on Wodby-managed infrastructure instead of inside your own cloud account or on your own server.
This is the clearest starting point when your team cares more about getting applications live quickly than about owning the cluster layer from day one.
No separate provider setup
Start without opening and wiring a cloud provider account or preparing your own server first.
Usage-based pricing
Wodby Cloud resources are billed through compute credits based on the resources you actually use.
Persistent clusters
Use Wodby-hosted clusters for real applications and long-running workloads, not only short-lived demos.
Use K3S where lighter Kubernetes is the better operational fit
Not every environment needs the cost profile of a fully managed production cluster.
K3S is a practical option for development environments, internal tooling, and smaller deployments that still benefit from the Kubernetes workflow. It keeps teams on the same operational model while reducing infrastructure overhead for lower-stakes workloads.
Lower-cost non-production environments
Keep development, QA, and staging close to the production model without paying for the same cluster footprint everywhere.
One workflow across prod and non-prod
Use the same Wodby delivery model whether production runs on managed Kubernetes and lower environments run on K3S.
Faster provisioning for lean workloads
Bring up Kubernetes-compatible environments quickly for internal tooling, agency projects, and smaller app portfolios.
- Lower costs for development and staging without changing the platform model.
- Keep Kubernetes-compatible workflows across production and non-production.
- Provision lean clusters quickly for teams that need fast feedback loops.
If you want the hosting and provider comparison, review the K3S paths on the Kubernetes options page.
Get the supporting infrastructure a cluster needs on day one
Kubernetes is only part of the platform. Teams also need ingress, monitoring, and other shared services to run applications well.
Wodby deploys and maintains the essential infrastructure services that usually turn Kubernetes adoption into a longer platform engineering project. These components are managed through the same interface as the rest of the platform, which reduces setup time and ongoing maintenance load.
Traffic and ingress baseline
Start with the shared edge, routing, and exposure patterns workloads need instead of inventing them per cluster.
Operational visibility
Keep monitoring and related shared controls close to the platform so day-two work does not depend on ad hoc cluster setup.
Platform-level shared services
Treat common infrastructure dependencies as part of the managed platform layer instead of separate side projects.
Scale, extend, and harden the cluster as workloads grow
The cluster layer should support growth without becoming a new operational bottleneck.
Wodby works with cluster scaling, high availability, and extension workflows that let teams evolve their platform over time. You can tie Kubernetes operations back to related platform features such as scalability and high availability instead of building that logic separately around the cluster.
- Scale workloads and clusters without bolting on separate tooling.
- Use Helm-based extension workflows to bring in more platform services.
- Keep Kubernetes operations aligned with app delivery and environment management.
Configure infrastructure without drowning in raw YAML
Teams still need control over Kubernetes infrastructure, but not every change should require a low-level manifest workflow.
Wodby exposes infrastructure configuration through a more accessible control surface. That makes it easier to adjust ingress, monitoring, and related services without turning every operational change into a manual Kubernetes authoring task.
The result is a more approachable platform for teams that want to use Kubernetes well without requiring everyone to become a cluster specialist.
- Handle common infrastructure changes through platform controls instead of hand-editing manifests for everything.
- Keep cluster operations closer to the application workflow your team already uses.
- Reduce the number of day-to-day tasks that require a dedicated Kubernetes specialist.
Next step
Run Kubernetes as a delivery platform, not a separate platform project
Give your team a faster path to Wodby Cloud, managed Kubernetes, or K3S with supporting services and day-two operations already tied into the app platform.
