• The recommended maximum number of nodes per node pool is 20.

• The maximum number of nodes in a node pool is 100.

• A total of 500 node pools per cluster is supported.

Private Node Pools

Following are a few limitations that you can encounter while using Private Node Pools:

• Managed Kubernetes clusters for Private Node Pools are bound to one region. When you create a node pool, you need to provide a data center, which has to be in the same location as defined in the cluster. You can create Private Node Pools only in a see Virtual Data Center (VDC) that shares the region with the managed Kubernetes cluster.

• Kubernetes services of type LoadBalancer are currently not supported.

• The static node Internet Protocol (IP) addresses are not supported.
