Kubernetes-as-a-Service (KaaS) for the education, research and innovation landscape in Switzerland.
ֱ̲ KaaS is a Kubernetes-as-a-Service (KaaS) for the education, research and innovation landscape in Switzerland. The service is based on the software “Kubermatic Kubernetes Platform (KKP)”, which simplifies the management of your Kubernetes clusters and minimises operational overhead. It’s never been so easy to set up, manage and scale your clusters. ֱ̲ KaaS orchestrates and automates hundreds of Kubernetes clusters in multiple regions using a single management interface and API. The service is operated on ֱ̲ Engines, guaranteeing that your applications run smoothly and reliably and that your data never leaves Switzerland.
Applications are increasingly being set up on a container basis with microservices, their dependencies and configurations. The open-source platform Kubernetes orchestrates and automates the tasks involved in setting up, running, managing and scaling cloud-native applications. The container system makes it easy to organise your workload on multiple machines with high availability.
Create a production-ready Kubernetes cluster in just a few minutes.
Change or upgrade the clusters with minimal effort.
Get an overview of clusters and your workload with clearly arranged dashboards.
Adjust the clusters of your workload and automatically scale the worker nodes in just a few clicks.
You can create a Kubernetes cluster that drives your cloud-native transformation in just a few clicks. SWITCHkaas simplifies the work involved with Kubernetes clusters so that you can concentrate on your application. Your development and operations teams work together on one platform in order to set up, run, manage and scale applications quickly and easily. SWITCHkaas and our expertise can help you take your IT infrastructure to the next level with security, stability, flexibility and speed.
Manual cluster management on a cloud platform is complex, prone to errors and expensive. It can also be difficult to find the right specialists. SWITCHkaas helps you reduce operating expenses, minimise costs and establish the basis for flexible and fast applications with impressive reliability.
Benefit from the Kubernetes (K8s) and the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) community. This way, for example, you can enhance your existing software packages with configurable or . This simplifies the migration and operation of your existing applications considerably.
Your containers and data are stored on our cloud platform SWITCHengines. The data never leaves Switzerland.
Run multiple containers without mutual dependencies on the same nodes. This allows you to use your virtual machines much more efficiently.
Start containers with flexibility and speed on the orchestration platform.
Scale your applications with flexibility and speed thanks to containers as independently functioning units.
As the containers are reproducible, you can transfer your applications from your development environment to the productive environment with flexibility and ease.
Migrate container applications smoothly to other Kubernetes cluster.
Splitting your application into microservices and containers results in higher redundancy and availability. Kubernetes ensures that your containers are automatically started on a new available host in the event of a failure.
It costs a lot of time and money to operate an infrastructure. SWITCHkaas simplifies your work and gives you the freedom to develop your applications. Your operating expenses are reduced and you have more time to spend on your core tasks.
Set up your Kubernetes platform in no time to allow your developers and operations team to deploy clusters extremely efficiently and securely. Manage your clusters centrally and intuitively with one single, clearly arranged dashboard.
