With Mastodon you run your own social media instance. At ungleich we
|
||
|
are providing the hosting for you, but if you ever want to host it
|
||
|
elsewhere, we provide you with the necessary exports to do so.

The low power Kubernetes hosting not only is very environment
|
||
|
friendly, but also very friendly to the budget. By using significantly
|
||
|
less resources, you contribute to saving the environment as well as
|
||
|
spending money on resources you don't need.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When starting small, you always have the possibility to grow your
|
||
|
cluster in the future, reacting to the actual needs.

Your Kubernetes cluster is running on dedicated hardware. No
|
||
|
interruption, no rescheduling, no peer pressure. All resources are
|
||
|
completely usable by you.
|
||
|
|
||
|
All our Kubernetes cluster are fully ready for the IPv6 world:
|
||
|
all nodes are running on an IPv6-only network. For IPv4 reachability
|
||
|
we offer you dedicated mapped IPv4 addresses.

## The ungleich Low Power Kubernetes Hosting offer
|
||
|
|
||
|
Our Kubernetes Hosting might be the world's most environment friendly
|
||
|
Kubernetes hosting out there. Not only are all components carefully
|
||
|
chosen to use as little energy as possible, but additionally the
|
||
|
electricity is coming from 100% renewebale energy sources.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Environment friendly, for real
|
||
|
|
||
|
Other providers are dealing with Carbon Certificates, offsetting their
|
||
|
energy and claiming to be green. None of that makes sense to us, as
|
||
|
the emissions are produced nonetheless, fossil fuels are used or
|
||
|
nuclear energy contributes to running your Kubernetes cluster
|
||
|
elsewhere.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Here at ungleich we start from the beginning and continue to improve
|
||
|
our energy usage every day. Not only are we using a 100% renewable
|
||
|
energy (locally produced!), but we also research specific hardware to
|
||
|
optimise the energy usage required by Kubernetes clusters.
|
||
|
|
||
|
##
|
||
|
|
||
|
Each Kubernetes cluster consists of 3 or more k8s nodes. While you can
|
||
|
grow it with adding individual nodes, we recommend to grow it in
|
||
|
numbers of 3. The reason for this is the underlying storage technology
|
||
|
[Ceph](https://ceph.com/) that saves each of your data blocks 3 times.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Failure resistent
|
||
|
|
||
|
As your workload is running on any of the k8s nodes, maintenance work
|
||
|
and failovers can be executed without interrupting the services
|
||
|
(assuming your workload is deployed accordingly).
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Storage support included
|
||
|
|
||
|
Using a built-in dedicated Ceph cluster we provide you with persistent
|
||
|
storage that can be accessed using standard Kubernetes PVCs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
As every k8s node contains a dedicated SSD, by adding new nodes, your
|
||
|
storage cluster automatically grows as well.
|
||
|
|
||
|
As the Ceph cluster stores every object 3 times, the 1 TB SSD of
|
||
|
each node contributes about 300GiB usable storage.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Simple Pricing
|
||
|
|
||
|
Our pricing is very simple: Each pack of 3 node nodes is 225
|
||
|
CHF/month. This includes rental of the hardware, network traffic,
|
||
|
electricity and maintenance of the kubernetes cluster.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You don't have to worry about additional storage, network fees or
|
||
|
other hidden costs.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## The Mastodon Setup
|
||
|
|
||
|
When you want to run mastodon and be part of the fediverse, you need a
|
||
|
domain like YOURNAME.social. This is the domain that your users will
|
||
|
be known under.
