This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Cloud and its products. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

just beware that the bill is about $400/month average when you haven't even used it at all.
There is a nice script for SL that deploys Kubernetes. Think it is in Github.
We are currently investigating Kubernetes as an orchestration tool within the IBM Containers offering. As an interim solution to provide a Kubs environment in the cloud prior to being available as a managed service in IBM Containers, view these automation scripts to deploy to SoftLayer VMs here --> https://github.com/patrocinio/kubernetes-softlayer.
