Platform9 recently launched a fully managed Kubernetes service on VMware vSphere with Platform9 Managed Kubernetes (PMK).

Part of the company’s hybrid cloud solution, PMK allows organizations to centrally manage VMs, containers and serverless functions on any environment, with a single pane of glass. This further enables enterprises to support Kubernetes at scale alongside their legacy applications, traditional VMs, and serverless functions, for streamlined operations and improved efficiency across all environments and technology stacks.

According to the company, PMK includes all enterprise-grade capabilities like zero-touch upgrades, multi-cluster operations, monitoring, and more.

Enterprises benefit as they get to modernize their VMware environments to take advantage of Kubernetes. They don’t need to worry about any management overhead for the customer, any hardware or configuration changes, or the need for advanced Kubernetes expertise in-house.
