Kubernetes Clusters
The Kubernetes Clusters page helps you view and manage Kubernetes clusters in the console.
What are Kubernetes Clusters?
Kubernetes Clusters are managed Kubernetes offerings from cloud providers (e.g. LKE on Akamai, EKS on AWS). Each cluster runs a control plane and one or more node pools of worker nodes. The console lets you list and manage clusters across your cloud accounts in one place.
View Kubernetes Clusters
The Kubernetes Clusters table lists all clusters from your registered cloud accounts, with their attributes displayed in table columns. Use pagination controls at the bottom of the page to navigate between pages if there are too many clusters to display.
When table data is being updated, table rows are displayed in italic, and table controls become inactive. It may take time to load the next portion of data.
To refresh the table, use the Reload π button.
To customize attributes displayed in the table, use the Layout β button.
When there are too many clusters available, use the Add filters π button to fine-tune your search. See the Resource Filter documentation for details.
Attributes
The following Kubernetes Cluster attributes are available:
- ID β Provider-specific identifier
- Provider β Cloud provider (e.g. Akamai, AWS)
- Region β Region or data center where the cluster runs
- Account β Account that owns the cluster
- Name β Display name of the cluster
- Version β Kubernetes version
- VPC ID β Virtual network the cluster uses (if applicable)
- Node pools β Pools of worker nodes (count, machine type, tags)
- Tags β Labels attached to the cluster
Which columns appear by default can vary; use the Layout button in the toolbar to show or hide columns.
Creating a new Kubernetes cluster
To create a new Kubernetes cluster, click Create in the toolbar. You will be taken to the Create Kubernetes Cluster page to configure version, node pools, and other options. This action is disabled when the selected account does not have Admin access.
Deleting a Kubernetes cluster
To delete a Kubernetes Cluster, check the clusterβs selection box and click the Delete ποΈ button. This action is disabled when the cluster is associated with an account that does not have Admin access.
The delete action may take time. Its status and progress are available on the Actions page.
