Compute

Servers that appear when you need them. In your account or ours.

Managed Kubernetes on Akua machines, your own cloud key, or a cluster you already run. One control plane, whichever you choose.

The question

Where does it run?

Wherever you say. The free machine on Akua-managed capacity, machines in your Hetzner project with your key, or the cluster your team already operates, imported. Regions are labels you define, not provider locations.

What is in it

Compute, piece by piece.

What each part does, and whether you can use it today.

What it costs

The platform is a flat fee. Compute is at cost.

Free to start with one managed cluster and one machine. Pro is €20 per workspace and month. Your own cloud key removes every limit, and Akua never marks up compute.

on your own terms.

Free to begin, on Akua-managed machines or your own cloud key.
