Kubernetes you can sign for.
Run by enum in Frankfurt.

Managed Kubernetes with a highly available control plane, integrated with enum's block storage, object storage, networking and DNS.

Available on request. Self-service follows later this year.

Isolated per cluster

Every cluster gets its own control plane. It is never shared with another cluster or customer.

Rolling upgrades

Node by node, so replicated workloads keep serving.

Private by default

Clusters start private, with outbound NAT included.

Control plane included.
You pay for compute.

Nodes are billed by the hour, in euros. The highly available control plane, 100 GB of disk per node and outbound NAT come with every cluster.

Calculate your cluster

Upstream Kubernetes.
No lock-in.

No fork and no proprietary layer on top. Manifests, Helm charts and GitOps pipelines work the way they do anywhere else.

Questions.
Answered.

How do I get a cluster today?

Clusters are available on request: tell us what you want to run and we set the cluster up with you. Self-service cluster creation through enumctl and the API follows later in 2026. Object storage and DNS are self-service already.

What does enum Kubernetes Engine cost?

You pay for worker nodes by the hour, from €0.06 for a gp-1 node with 1 vCPU and 4 GB. The highly available control plane, 100 GB of disk per node and outbound NAT are included. Block storage costs €0.10 per GB a month and a load balancer €10.00 a month. Prices are in euros, exclude VAT, and commitments of one to three years save 10 to 20%.

Is it upstream Kubernetes?

Yes. enum runs upstream Kubernetes without a fork or proprietary add-ons, so standard manifests, Helm charts and GitOps workflows work unchanged.

Which Kubernetes versions do you support?

The three most recent minor releases, the same window the upstream project supports. enum applies patch releases for you and runs minor upgrades node by node.

Can I move from EKS, GKE or AKS?

Yes. enum runs upstream Kubernetes, so your manifests, Helm charts and GitOps pipelines carry over. What changes are the cloud-specific parts: load balancer annotations, storage classes and how pods get cloud credentials (IRSA or Workload Identity). Object storage is S3-compatible, so tools like rclone and the AWS SDKs keep working. Our team plans the migration with you, runs both platforms in parallel and switches over with a rollback plan.

Where does it run?

enum runs the clusters in a Tier III+ data centre in Frankfurt, Germany. A Berlin region is available on request.

Is there an SLA?

Yes, 99.9% availability for the Kubernetes control plane API. Ask us for the contract terms.

Is enum subject to the US CLOUD Act?

No. enum GmbH is a German company with no US parent or US entity, so the CLOUD Act does not reach the data it holds.
