Oracle Kubernetes Engine gives you production Kubernetes on OCI without running the control plane yourself. We design the clusters, wire in networking and security, and set up the pipelines so your team ships instead of babysitting nodes.
OKE runs the Kubernetes control plane for you and integrates with OCI networking, identity, storage, and load balancing. That removes a lot of undifferentiated work, but a production cluster still needs good design around node pools, networking, security, and delivery.
We stand up clusters that scale cleanly, secure them properly, and connect them to CI and CD so deployments are routine. The result is a platform your developers trust and your operators are not woken up by.
Node pools, virtual node options, and autoscaling sized for your services and traffic patterns.
VCN native pod networking, ingress, and load balancing wired into OCI properly.
Workload identity, image scanning, network policy, and least privilege baked into the cluster.
CI and CD pipelines, Helm, and GitOps so deployments are repeatable and boring in the best way.
When OKE and its node options fit, against the wider container choices on OCI.
| Option | Best for | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| OKE managed nodes | Teams wanting control over node configuration | You own node patching and scaling policy |
| OKE virtual nodes | Serverless style scaling without managing nodes | Some workloads need managed node control |
| Container Instances | Simple single container workloads | Not a fit for orchestrated microservices |
| Self managed Kubernetes | Edge cases needing full control of the control plane | You carry the full operational burden |
