vcluster: A virtual Kubernetes Cluster
As more developers get familiar with deploying to Kubernetes, the need for better isolation between tenants becomes more important. Is it enough to just have access to…
Virtual clusters running inside regular namespaces solve the Kubernetes multi-tenancy issue and cut costs at the same time.
Virtual clusters have their own API server, which makes them much more powerful and better isolated than namespaces. They are also much cheaper than separately created, ‘real’ Kubernetes clusters. Container technology as a service: your managed Kubernetes cluster includes a fully managed software stack, giving you everything you need to run your applications in production.
Much better isolated than namespaces
Cheaper than separate, ‘real’ Kubernetes clusters
More powerful thanks to its own API server
vCluster offer a unique developer experience for anyone developing against Kubernetes as a deployment target
When scalability limits of k8s are reached due to large multi-tenant clusters, clusters can be split into vClusters and effectively shared
New ingress controller tests can be virtually simulated without affecting cluster operation
Virtual clusters are executed within the namespaces of other clusters. They have a separate API server and a separate data store so that every Kubernetes object created in the vCluster only exists within this vCluster.
