NEONKUBE is a full-stack, production ready Kubernetes distribution aimed at developers who want to deploy production services to Kubernetes. It provides everything needed to run production services out-of-the box, with a greatly improved developer experience.
NEONKUBE runs the same everywhere, from a laptop to on-premises servers, to the cloud. This means that a developer can code and test against a laptop cluster and have confidence that it will work the same in the cloud.
Highlights
Service Mesh
Istio provides traffic management, security and observability for the cluster network.
Certificate Management
Cert Manager provides automated certificate provisioning and renewal.
Container Attached Storage
OpenEBS enables developers to run stateful workloads on Kubernetes by providing local and/or distributed Kubernetes Persistent Volumes.
Container Registry
NEONKUBE includes a built-in container registry for hosting container images.
Single Sign On
Dex helps to abstract identity management. Dex is compatible with providers such as GitHub, Google, Microsoft, AWS, as well as federating with enterprise authentication solutions like Microsoft Active Directory.
Observability
Prometheus, Grafana, Tempo, Mimir, and Loki form our monitoring stack, providing visibility into what happening in a cluster.
neon desktop
neon desktop is our graphical user interface. This can be installed on workstations and laptops and is used to deploy and manage clusters.
neon cli
neon cli is a command line tool that wraps and extends the functionality provided by other Kubernetes tools like kubectl, helm, and kustomize and is also used to deploy and manage clusters.
vm sizes and pricing
NEONKUBE currently runs on 64-bit AMD/Intel based virtual machines with at least 2 vCPUs and 8GB RAM. VMs with 2 vCPUs may be used for control-plane nodes and we don't charge any extra fees for these. Worker nodes require instance sizes with at least 4 vCPUs and 8GB RAM and you may also use these for control-plane nodes. NEONKUBE charges an additional (US) $0.02/hour for each vCPU for virtual machine sizes with 4 or more vCPUs (for both worker and control-plane nodes)
AWS Marketplace now accepts line of credit payments through the PNC Vendor Finance program. This program is available to select AWS customers in the US, excluding NV, NC, ND, TN, & VT.
You pay by the hour for neonKUBE, billed per running EC2 instance. Each dimension maps to a specific AWS instance type, and your rate depends on which type you launch. Pricing scales with the compute, memory, and storage of the instance you pick. Smaller general-purpose types cost less per hour, while memory-optimized, storage-optimized, GPU, and bare-metal types carry higher hourly rates. You are not locked into one size. Run any mix of instance types, and your total cost reflects the hours each one runs. There is no upfront commitment; charges accrue only while instances are active.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one billable unit for each hourly rate?
Each dimension maps to one running AWS EC2 instance of that named type. You are charged per hour for each active instance. A t3.large running for one hour counts as one instance-hour. Launch several instances of the same type, and each one meters its own hours separately.
Am I charged when an instance is stopped or paused?
The software rate meters running hours only. When you stop an instance, neonKUBE software charges stop accruing. Underlying AWS fees, such as storage attached to a stopped instance, may still apply through AWS itself. You pay software charges only while an instance is active.
How does my bill change if I run a mix of instance types?
Each instance type bills at its own hourly rate, independently. Your total is the sum of every instance's rate multiplied by its running hours. Larger memory-optimized, GPU, storage-optimized, and bare-metal types add more per hour than general-purpose types. You can combine any types without a commitment.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
This is a fully functional NEONKUBE release that is based on KUBERNETES v1.24 which is
no longer supported. We're in the process upgrading to KUBERNETES v1.29 which is scheduled
to be released early December 2023. We're also planning on switching from the Calico
CNI to Cilium for better performance due to their eBPF
network proxy implementation as well as their service mesh.
This is categorized as a BETA release because we're expecting the Kubernetes and Cilium
changes to introduce breaking changes.

Usage instructions
Do not install this AMI directly. To get started, download the latest neon-desktop client application from https://neonkube.io, and follow the instructions to create a cluster.
