Civo
British Kubernetes-first cloud that charges for worker nodes only, with control planes included and data transfer unmetered.
The control plane is free. Really.
Civo is a British cloud built around Kubernetes rather than one that added it later. Control-plane components are not charged for, the bill covers worker nodes and add-ons only, and data transfer in and out is unmetered — three decisions that between them remove most of what makes a managed-Kubernetes invoice hard to predict in advance.
Beyond clusters it sells compute instances, S3-compatible object storage, persistent volumes, load balancers, managed PostgreSQL and GPU capacity. Sovereign private-cloud arrangements are offered for the United Kingdom and India, and the platform is certified against the usual enterprise audit standards. New accounts start on time-limited credit rather than a standing free allowance.
