Leafcloud Kubernetes

Leafcloud Kubernetes is the managed Kubernetes service of the Dutch hosting provider Leafcloud. Clusters are configured with straightforward YAML files, several clusters across different cloud environments can be managed from one interface, and GPU-enabled clusters make it usable for AI and machine learning workloads. Hibernation, automatic scaling and self-healing keep resource use down.

Leafcloud uses green energy at both its data centres and its Leaf Sites, where the heat from the servers is reused locally to provide hot water for residents and cut natural gas use. As a European alternative to the American Kubernetes services, it suits teams that weigh carbon emissions alongside cost.

Pricing

Each cluster costs a fixed 84.50 euros per month, plus the compute and storage resources it consumes.
