Ship Code Faster

Mirantis Kubernetes Engine is the industry-leading container orchestration platform for developing and running modern applications at scale, anywhere. On private clouds, public clouds, or bare metal. It’s a mature architecture for providing customizable, hardened, resilient, and manageable Kubernetes and/or Swarm container orchestration, where and when you need it.

Mirantis Kubernetes Engine

Choice, Simplicity, Security

Mirantis Kubernetes Engine clusters can be deployed or configured on-the-fly to provide one or both of the leading flavors of container orchestration:

Fully-certified, secure-by-default Kubernetes with industry-leading Istio ingress and Calico networking — the leading platform for enterprise application modernization and accelerated greenfield microservice application development. Accelerate development with Lens — the world’s most popular Kubernetes IDE — or with open source Docker tools and Mirantis plugins

Swarm orchestration, for simplified operations and rapid iteration with open source Docker tools

Run anywhere

Mirantis Kubernetes Engine can run almost anywhere: on virtual machines, bare metal, or on any public cloud. Worker nodes can run on a range of Linux operating systems, or on Windows Server.

Run securely

Built around Mirantis Container Runtime (formerly Docker Engine – Enterprise), Mirantis Kubernetes Engine is secure-by-default: equipped with industry-leading FIPS-140-2 encryption, and built-in Content Trust, to prevent execution of improperly-signed or unsigned container workloads.

Run Windows-native container workloads

Mirantis Kubernetes Engine worker nodes can be deployed on Windows Server 2019 with Mirantis Container Runtime for Windows. Easily tag and configure workloads for execution on appropriate node types, and run any mix of Windows and Linux worker nodes within the same Mirantis Kubernetes Engine environment.

Specialized hardware support

Mirantis Container Runtime can easily be configured to make use of specialized hardware in bare metal and virtual environments, including FPGAs and GPUs, making them ideal for research, scientific computing, and machine learning.

Ready for work – batteries included

Mirantis Kubernetes Engine clusters are architected with best-of-breed, out of the box defaults for Kubernetes ingress and container networking (Istio and Calico), so they’re ready for work. But because they’re based on open source standards, they’re also readily customizable and extensible.

Consistent and Centrally-Manageable

Using Mirantis Container Cloud, consistent Mirantis Kubernetes Engine clusters can be configured, deployed, observed, and lifecycle-managed across your hybrid or multi-cloud. Centralized provisioning, zero-downtime updates, built-in observability, and a single point of integration for self-service and operations automation streamline Ops. Consistent clusters everywhere simplifies CI/CD and help you ship code faster.

"I loved the Docker enterprise new feature"

I loved the Docker enterprise new feature which enables us to work across all working environments/different clouds/bare metal, it also enables me to run multiple open source apps without complication.

"Simplify your IT problems, use Docker"

I am a satisfied customer of Docker Enetrprise which has helped me to get rid of the major technical issues that were hindrance in the efficient working of my various applications. It works really well for both the private clouds, public clouds and even bare metal. This tool is very much security concern and it has influence my entire organization and facilitated my working through its mature customizable and manageable Kubernetes and swarm container orchestration.

"Greatness of Docker Enterprise"

Installation is easy, greatly used to manage our production sites and have not faced any major issues. I'm able to run several containers all at once and once configured properly they all just run without issue. There is consistency across multiple development and release cycles, standardizing your environment. Amazing stability. Provides lot of advanced features to simplify managements. Stability, Strongly recommended to use it in production environments. Easy to use in various platforms and Performance is high to use for scaling and deploying

"Solid Container Management Software"

Kubernetes Engine runs smoothly and so far has been reliable (of course based on the reliability of the containers). It's straighforward and simple to use. I or my team has used it to deploy up to 20-ish containers simuletaneously. The engine itself has never displayed any fucntional or reliability issues in the 4-ish years I've used it.

Deploy Mirantis Kubernetes Engine Two Ways

Mirantis Kubernetes Engine clusters can be deployed or configured on-the-fly to provide one or both of the leading flavors of container orchestration:

Deploy on-demand Mirantis Kubernetes Engine clusters from Mirantis Container Cloud using simple wizards, for a seamless multi-cloud experience on any infrastructure, easily integrated with enterprise IAM, IT self-service, and other tools. Then observe, update/upgrade, scale, and manage your child clusters — including underlying infrastructure — from a single pane of glass. It’s your cloud, everywhere.
