The following announcement for a new Kubernetes Engine feature was written based on information available in October 2023. For the latest information about KakaoCloud Kubernetes Engine, see Kubernetes Engine.

Hello, Kubernetes Engine, KakaoCloud's managed Kubernetes service, now provides Bare Metal Server nodes.

KakaoCloud users can now configure node pools in the console by choosing from three node pool types, including Virtual Machine and Bare Metal Server.

To use Bare Metal Server nodes in Kubernetes Engine, follow these steps.

  1. In the KakaoCloud console, select the Kubernetes Engine service.
  2. On the Cluster tab, select the cluster where you want to create a node pool. If no cluster has been created yet, create a cluster first.
  3. On the cluster details page, click the Node pool tab, then click [Create node pool] on the right.
  4. On the [Create node pool] screen, you can see a screen where you can select the node pool type as shown below.

  1. Select the Bare Metal Server type and enter the information required for configuration to create a node pool easily.

Other recent improvements to Kubernetes Engine are as follows.



  • To ensure high availability for multi-availability-zone clusters, selecting at least one subnet in each availability zone is now required when creating a new cluster (applied to kr-central-2).
  • The API server endpoint for newly created clusters has been changed to port 443 (applied to kr-central-1).

For more information about Kubernetes Engine, see the technical documentation. We will continue working to provide safer and more convenient cloud services.
