SUSE® Rancher Manager Deployment Strategy
There are two recommended deployment strategies for a Rancher instance that manages downstream Kubernetes clusters. Each one has its own pros and cons. Read more about which one would fit best for your use case.
Hub & Spoke Strategy

Regional Strategy
In the regional deployment model a Rancher instance is deployed in close proximity to the downstream Kubernetes clusters.
