I’m usually in agreement with this sentiment, but they do say what it is in the first paragraph.

“NVIDIA Kubernetes® Engine (NVKE) provides the management plane that platform teams install to create and operate Kubernetes clusters for their customers.”

Well one needs to read a bit more to understand what that meant...

NVKE is not a Kubernetes distribution and not a Cluster API flavour. It is a self-hosting factory for Kubernetes clusters: a throwaway seed cluster stands up a management cluster, and the management plane on it then provisions and lifecycle-manages many isolated workload clusters on demand.

Ok, so say I have a platform team to install k8s or k3s. Why do I need NVKE? Also, how do I resell my kubernetes to customers? Like is there stripe integration?

I am more confused by its description than by just reading the product name and guessing.

That doesn’t say anything. It doesn’t answer a single question I would have.
