If you can't make Vanilla upstream Kubernetes work, it is very ill advised to think you will be met with success using a heavily modified fork that has a fraction of the support of K8S.
- oskapt 8y agoIn an environment where only a fraction of support is needed, it doesn't make sense to run a fat distro with features that you'll never use. K3s is designed for low-power, low-resource environments that don't need things like EBS or NFS volume support or alpha/beta API features. Imagine edge environments like traffic management networks, wind farms, telco substations, or other places where environmental constraints make it more reliable to run something fanless with flash storage and 1GB of RAM. Stock Kubernetes will choke under those circumstances, but does that mean that those environments are forbidden from using the benefits of Kubernetes?
