2024: KaaS service launch

Reg.ru expanded its line of services and launched the Kubernetes as a Service solution. The service allows you to automatically deploy, scale and maintain container infrastructure. The company announced this on August 6, 2024.

The solution presents the finished cloud product Managed Kubernetes. 30% of customers of the Рег.ру cloud platform prefer to develop client applications based on microservice infrastructure using Kubernetes container orchestration technology. This service will help in their configuration and optimization, as well as reduce time and financial costs.

Kubernetes is considered the most popular and convenient tool for managing containers, although its self-deployment takes an average of several hours to several days. Kubernetes as a Service will help you reduce this step to 5-10 minutes and significantly reduce the number of routine processes involved in maintaining your IT infrastructure.

We strive to make our cloud platform as convenient and useful as possible for customers. The launch of Kubernetes as a Service is a natural stage in the development of the product portfolio of the Рег.ру cloud. The solutions of our public circuit are previously tested and tested in the company's private cloud. So, the KaaS service is already used by our developers to solve corporate problems and shows good performance, - said Anna Abramova, head of cloud development at Reg.ru.

Within this service, you can create several clusters and take into account different configurations. For each cluster, you can choose a distributed or unallocated cluster type, as well as create up to ten groups of workers in each of them and choose the appropriate tariff and volume. Initial installation, configuration and 24/7 technical support will remain on the Reg.ru side.

The deployment and maintenance of Kubernetes clusters requires specific competencies. Therefore, companies, most often startups and the small business segment, are forced to bear the additional costs of hiring a DevOps engineer. The Managed Kubernetes service will help you save and optimize your business process, "adds Andrey Fedorov, Reg.ru Cloud Product Manager.

The Рег.ру cloud platform is based on OpenStack and is designed to launch, develop and test IT projects and host business IT infrastructure of any scale. The service allows you to quickly migrate to the cloud and reduce IT maintenance costs.
