# Instance-level Kubernetes clusters
|
|
|
|
> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/-/issues/39840) in GitLab 11.11.
|
|
|
|
Similar to [project-level](../../project/clusters/index.md)
|
|
and [group-level](../../group/clusters/index.md) Kubernetes clusters,
|
|
instance-level Kubernetes clusters allow you to connect a Kubernetes cluster to
|
|
the GitLab instance, which enables you to use the same cluster across multiple
|
|
projects.
|
|
|
|
The instance level Kubernetes clusters can be found in the top menu by navigating to your instance's **{admin}** **Admin Area > Kubernetes**.
|
|
|
|
## Cluster precedence
|
|
|
|
GitLab will try to match clusters in the following order:
|
|
|
|
- Project-level clusters.
|
|
- Group-level clusters.
|
|
- Instance-level clusters.
|
|
|
|
To be selected, the cluster must be enabled and
|
|
match the [environment selector](../../../ci/environments/index.md#scoping-environments-with-specs).
|
|
|
|
## Cluster environments **(PREMIUM)**
|
|
|
|
For a consolidated view of which CI [environments](../../../ci/environments/index.md)
|
|
are deployed to the Kubernetes cluster, see the documentation for
|
|
[cluster environments](../../clusters/environments.md).
|
|
|
|
