Building the Ultimate Pi Kubernetes Cluster: A Journey into Cloud Scalability

• voigt 2y ago
  tl;dr: he used 4 raspberry pi 5s, and created a k8s cluster using microk8s. There isn't so much value in this article, also not an explanation of how things were done... The chosen case looks nice, but for a cluster of PIs it looks like the wrong choice. In any case, seems like the author enjoyed his work :)

    Might've been good, yes. But I think it'd have been outside the scope of his project tbf

  > To maximize the resources of my Raspberry Pi 5s, I installed Raspberry Pi OS Lite If kubernetes cluster was the goal, perhaps Talos Linux would have been the better choice: https://www.talos.dev/v1.8/talos-guides/install/single-board-computers/rockpi_4/ https://www.talos.dev/v1.8/talos-guides/install/single-board... https://www.talos.dev/v1.9/talos-guides/install/single-board-computers/turing_rk1/ https://www.talos.dev/v1.9/talos-guides/install/single-board...

    100%. Talos is wonderful.

    Talos doesn't support RPI 5 yet, which I learned only after ordering 2 boards and trying to add them to my existing cluster on RPI 4.

  Those mini cases are adorable! Glad you had fun and learned a lot. Fiddling around is often the best way to learn.
