Overview

A managed Kubernetes control plane on dedicated infrastructure. It is standard, upstream Kubernetes — no forks, no proprietary operators — so what you build here runs anywhere, and your team is never locked to one vendor.

What's included

Managed control plane — less to operate
Standard, upstream Kubernetes
No proprietary operators or lock-in
Autoscaling and persistent storage

Technical documentation

Why teams choose Kubernetes

Control plane $99/mo, worker nodes from $41/mo — transparent CAD pricing, with free egress.

Fully managed control plane

We handle upgrades, patches, and availability. You ship containers.

HA or single-node control planes

A single control node for dev, HA multi-master for production.

Cluster autoscaling

Scale worker nodes automatically based on workload demand.

Standard upstream, no lock-in

Open-source Kubernetes on sovereign Canadian infrastructure — your manifests run anywhere.

Kubernetes features

Everything you need to build and scale.

HA and single-node control planes

Single control node for dev and staging. HA multi-master for production.

Multiple Kubernetes versions

Choose 1.34, 1.35, 1.36, or 1.37 (default 1.36.4).

Built-in load balancing and ingress

Expose services with type LoadBalancer and ingress (NGINX, Istio).

Self-healing

Failed containers restart automatically.

Persistent storage

Attach NVMe block-storage volumes to stateful workloads via CSI.

Standard kubectl and API access

No proprietary wrappers — your manifests and Helm charts work everywhere.

SSH access to nodes

Full access to worker nodes when you need it.

How Kubernetes compares

See why teams choose ZSoftly Cloud Platform.

Capability	Why it matters
Free egress	Move data in and out of your clusters with no bandwidth penalty — a real cost on EKS, GKE, and AKS.
Standard Kubernetes API	No vendor lock-in — your manifests work on any conformant cluster.
HA or single-node, your call	Run a lean single control node for dev or HA multi-master for production — no enterprise-tier gate.
Sovereign Canadian infrastructure	Data residency without compromise.
Real human support	Talk to engineers who know Kubernetes, not chatbots.
Transparent CAD pricing	Control plane $99/mo, workers from $41/mo — no per-cluster API surcharges, no surprise egress.

Use cases for Kubernetes

Microservices architectures
CI/CD deployment targets
Stateful workloads (databases, message queues)
Multi-tenant SaaS platforms
Internal tools and application platforms

How Kubernetes works

1
Create a cluster
Name it, pick a Kubernetes version, and choose a region in the portal.
2
Configure worker nodes
Choose a worker plan and node count.
3
Choose your control plane
Single control node for dev, or HA multi-master for production.
4
Download your kubeconfig
Export KUBECONFIG and connect with kubectl immediately.
5
Deploy workloads
Use kubectl, Helm, or your CI/CD pipeline.
6
Enable autoscaling
Set min and max node counts — we handle the rest.
