The overview will not detail pricing or topics outside of a platform’s technical capabilities for Kubernetes. This comparison aims to cover concepts such as version availability, network and security options, and container image services. We hope that by presenting this information side-by-side, both current Kubernetes users and prospective adopters can better understand their options or get an overview of the current state of managed Kubernetes offerings.
These are the baseline requirements for the CNCF when it comes to Kubernetes, but cloud providers have such rich ecosystems that there are bound to be more significant discrepancies.
