I'm very interested in the concept, but found Kata to be hard to get going with.
Last time I looked (a few months ago), the documentation was pretty sparse or outdated. A lot of documentation I found stated something like "we broke that in the new version, you can't actually do that right now", like using it with Docker, which I would much prefer over setting up Kubernetes.
I still think it's an absolutely great thing, but the on onboarding could have been a lot less rocky.
FWIW, I eventually kind of DIYed it with QEMU MicroVM and virtiofs - never did anything with it though.
- solarkraft 3y agoOn the onboarding point: Almost all projects would do themselves a big service by putting work into the onboarding experience because it's a key factor in how many people will use and help developing the project.

It still is, though it works somewhat seamlessly when installing with https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/blob/main/utils/README.md#install-a-minimal-kata-containers-system https://github.com/kata-containers/kata-containers/blob/main... Though only one of the hypervisors works well.

- flanked-evergl 3y agoSorry, I should have said, but yes it is QEMU which is the default.
