Managed Kubernetes by Clever Cloud

A Production-Grade Kubernetes Platform Without the Operational Burden

Kubernetes

Clever Cloud Managed Kubernetes is designed for organizations that want a reliable, secure, and scalable Kubernetes infrastructure without having to manage it themselves. We provide a turnkey, production-ready solution so you can focus on your applications, not the complexity behind them.

What is Kubernetes?

Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration system that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It allows you to run applications consistently across different environments, while providing features like automated rollouts, self-healing, and service discovery.

How We Deliver Kubernetes

1 Fully Managed Control Plane: We handle provisioning, updates, and continuous maintenance for both the control plane and worker nodes. Your teams can focus on delivering new features while we manage the rest.

2 Multi-Tenant Architecture: Our Kubernetes is designed from the ground up for scalability. Multiple clusters run with strict workload isolation.

3 Zero-Configuration Infrastructure: Everything is included: backups, networking, and monitoring are automatically provisioned and maintained. No manual setup, no trial and error.

4 Integrated Clever Cloud Ecosystem: Benefit from native integration with the Clever Cloud platform: monitoring, alerting, CI/CD integration, logging, and backups — all unified in a single environment.

The Clever Cloud Difference

Standard Kubernetes architecture relies on ETCD, a component that quickly becomes a bottleneck at scale, which is why hyperscalers have built their own versions. At Clever Cloud, we rethought this key element with Materia KV, our serverless key-value database built on FoundationDB.

This brings you:

  • True horizontal scalability — add capacity without performance loss
  • Enhanced observability and control — fine-grained quotas, permissions, and statistics
  • Consistent multi-tenant performance — industrialized for thousands of clusters
  • Distributed architecture — deployed across three Parisian datacenters with built-in multi-site replication, ensuring service continuity and eliminating the need for DRP or manual backups
  • Resilience — continuous simulation of failure scenarios to ensure uninterrupted service in all circumstances

The result: a Kubernetes that is faster, more reliable, and easier to operate — without the limitations of traditional architectures.

How We Deployed a Vinext Application in Minutes on Clever Cloud with AI

Cloudflare has just announced Vinext, a drop-in replacement for Next.js built on Vite. The project is vibecoded, experimental, but the promise is compelling: builds up to 4x faster, bundles 57% lighter, and 94% coverage of the Next.js API. We wanted to see how easy it would be to deploy it on Clever Cloud.
