Enterprise-grade infrastructure without the enterprise-grade headaches. Everything works out of the box.
When you bring your own cloud, you unlock advantages that managed platforms simply cannot offer.
Your infrastructure, your data. Stay compliant with regional data requirements. We only manage orchestration.
Export your configs and leave anytime. Your apps run on standard Kubernetes on your infrastructure.
AWS, GCP, or Azure credits? Startup programs? Use them all. Deploy on any cloud that fits your budget.
DigitalOcean, Hetzner, Vultr, OVH, Linode, or your own hardware. If it has SSH, it works.
Other platforms force you to choose between simplicity and control. We believe you shouldn't have to compromise.
"The simplicity of managed PaaS + the control of self-hosting"
Traditional managed platforms lock you into their infrastructure. Your data lives on their servers, you pay their markups, and leaving is painful.
With Kool: You keep control of your infrastructure
Running your own Kubernetes is powerful but demands months of learning, endless YAML files, and constant maintenance overhead.
With Kool: No YAML, no complexity, just deploy
Serverless sounds great until cold starts slow your users and unpredictable bills arrive at scale. Plus, not everything fits the serverless model.
With Kool: Predictable costs, no cold starts, full Docker support

No, absolutely not.
Kool Cloud handles all Kubernetes complexity behind the scenes. You just push your code with git push and we take care of orchestration, scaling, networking, and security. If you know Docker Compose, you already know enough to deploy with Kool.
Your data stays on YOUR infrastructure. With BYOC, your applications and data run on servers you control. We only manage the orchestration layer via secure SSH connections. Your database credentials, environment secrets, and application data never touch our servers. You maintain complete data sovereignty.
Your apps keep running. Since BYOC deploys to your own infrastructure, your applications continue running independently. You can export your Kubernetes configurations anytime and manage the cluster directly. No vendor lock-in means you're never stranded.
Any provider with SSH access. DigitalOcean, Hetzner, AWS EC2, Vultr, Linode, OVH, Google Cloud, Azure, Scaleway, UpCloud—if you can SSH into it, you can deploy to it. We're provider-agnostic, so you pick the infrastructure that fits your budget and requirements.
Yes, BYOC works with any cloud provider. Have startup credits from AWS, GCP, or Azure? Use them! Spin up EC2 instances with your credits and deploy via Kool Cloud. You pay for the infrastructure at your negotiated rates, and only pay Kool for the orchestration layer.
You own the infrastructure. Traditional PaaS platforms host your apps on their infrastructure, creating vendor lock-in and data sovereignty concerns. With Kool BYOC, you get the same developer experience (git push to deploy) but on servers you control. No markup on compute, no data leaving your infrastructure, and you can leave anytime.
Yes, WordPress works great on Kool. You can deploy WordPress as a Docker container on either our Managed Cloud or your own infrastructure via Anywhere PaaS. It's purpose-built for containerized apps with optimized caching and easy scaling. Perfect for agencies and site owners who want hassle-free WordPress hosting.
