Can anybody help explain when organizations should use Talos instead of cloud-vendor-managed Kubernetes offerings (EKS/AKS/GKE)? Especially considering that the managed offerings now fit most regulatory requirements (e.g. EKS is FedRAMP-High Authorized)? Or does Talos see most of its use in on-prem environments?

I want to self host to learn the stack top to bottom. 2. Build your own service. 3. Why not? (probably the best, most hackerish option) > Especially considering that the managed offerings now fit most regulatory requirements (e.g. EKS is FedRAMP-High Authorized)? Standards that meet regulatory requirements may not be updated or secure enough to meet private sector needs.
