Do you know how much you are saving by switching to virtual clusters? With the latest vCluster Platform v4.2 release, you no longer have to guess. Introducing the Cost Savings Dashboard, a built-in feature that tracks your cost data and gives you a clear view of how much you’re saving by using virtual clusters instead of traditional Kubernetes clusters. 1️⃣ Reduced Clusters: Save big—virtual clusters cost ~$90/year vs. $900/year for traditional clusters. 2️⃣ Sleep Mode: Automatically cut costs for idle clusters. 3️⃣ Shared Platform Stack: Share components across virtual clusters to save even more (Coming Soon) We can’t wait to hear what you think about these new features.

Just got back from the first-ever KubeCon India – what an incredible experience! 🚀 Loft Labs was proud to sponsor the event, and our team had a few sessions on topics like Supply chain Security SLSA and cell-based architecture(including vCluster demo). We had amazing conversations with the community at our booth, diving into how vCluster helps solve cost and multi-tenancy challenges. KubeCon India wasn’t just about learning; it was about connecting, sharing, and growing together. We left inspired and energized by the amazing talent in this community.
