kli v2.3 Release — Smarter Cost Optimization with Dynamic Region Switching

We are thrilled to announce the release of kli v2.3! This update introduces Dynamic Region Switching, an intelligent cost-optimization feature that helps you minimize infrastructure expenses by selecting the most cost-effective region for your Kubernetes clusters—without changing your instance type.

🌟 What’s New in kli v2.3?

📌 Dynamic Region Switching for Cost Optimization

kli can now automatically switch regions to optimize costs while maintaining the same instance type. This feature ensures that your clusters run in the most cost-effective region without manual intervention.

  • 🚀 Automatically identifies and switches to one of the top 5 best-priced regions
  • 🛠️ Optional setting: Keep your cluster in the current region if preferred
  • 💰 Reduces infrastructure costs by dynamically adapting to pricing changes across regions

This feature ensures you get maximum cost efficiency while maintaining performance and reliability.

This feature works with the kli cluster create command.

🔧 Fixes and Improvements

  • 🌍 Expanded AWS Support – European regions are now available after fixing the pricing API
  • Upgraded Compilation – kli CLI is now built with Go v1.24 for better performance and stability
