This sounds a lot like "We don't actually patch the OS" which is quite common among many companies.
As a former enterprise kubernetes distro maintainer, I can tell you with certainty that most on-premise kubernetes customers aren't patching their machines between kubernetes releases, and try to stay on kubernetes releases for 18+ months.
- cyrnel 3y agoI have hope for that problem to be solved too, with some combination of minimal kernels and live patching. I really don't think running two copies of everything and hammering CPU/RAM/Disk/Network with constant drain operations is a permanent solution for applying patches.
