Vultr VKE Cluster

vultr-vke-cluster

A Vultr Kubernetes Engine (VKE) managed cluster on a dedicated private VPC, with a required default node pool and optional autoscaling extra pools.

Status: static-validated, live-test pending. Validated with tofu validate + tflint + checkov against the vultr/vultr provider. Not yet applied against a live Vultr account, so it ships under live-test quarantine.

Design & secure defaults

• Private VPC by default. The cluster attaches to a dedicated VPC (created and managed by this module unless you pass an existing vpc_id). Vultr always attaches a VKE cluster to some VPC, so create_vpc = false is only valid together with an existing vpc_id; the create_vpc = false + vpc_id = null combination is rejected at plan time (it would otherwise make Vultr silently create an untracked VPC this module cannot surface).
• VKE-managed firewall on (enable_firewall = true) and HA control plane on (ha_controlplanes = true) for production resilience.
• Autoscaling default pool. The required default_node_pool autoscales between min_nodes and max_nodes; add more via additional_node_pools.
• Preconditions enforce min_nodes <= node_quantity and min_nodes <= max_nodes on every autoscaling pool.
• kubernetes_version defaults to a recent release — always confirm a currently supported version (vultr-cli kubernetes versions) before applying.
