+# Instance-level Kubernetes clusters
+
+> [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/39840) in GitLab 11.11.
+> Instance-level cluster integration is currently in [Beta](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/#alpha-beta-ga).
+
+## Overview
+
+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.
+
+## Cluster precedence
+
+GitLab will try match to clusters in the following order:
+
+- Project-level clusters
+- Group-level clusters
+- Instance level
+
+To be selected, the cluster must be enabled and
+match the [environment selector](../../../ci/environments.md#scoping-environments-with-specs-premium).
