DAAKYI Cloud does not sell a managed Kubernetes service — and for many teams, that is exactly the point. In this webinar recording, our engineering team walks through running your own Kubernetes clusters on DAAKYI virtual machines: full control, no control-plane fees, no lock-in.
Topics Covered
- Sizing control-plane and worker VMs with anti-affinity rules so no two masters share a host
- Provisioning nodes through the REST API from your cluster tooling (kubeadm, k3s, RKE2)
- Using DC Block Storage volumes for persistent workloads and DC Object Storage (S3-compatible) for backups
- Fronting ingress with DC Load Balancer and protecting it with DC WAF
- Snapshotting node VMs before cluster upgrades for instant rollback
Key Takeaways
Kubernetes runs well on plain, fast VMs. The platform gives you the primitives — compute, block storage, load balancing, snapshots, monitoring — and stays out of your cluster. You keep every knob, and compute bills only while your nodes are powered on.
The full webinar recording is available above. For hands-on practice, provision a three-VM cluster and follow the VM quickstart in the Developer Docs.
