Operator, please connect me with Kata containers!
summary
Operator installs and manages the Kata containers runtime on OpenShift or vanilla Kubernetes, deploying a daemonset installer pods that pull images and write Kata binaries to worker filesystems, using the MachineConfig operator to push CRI‑O config and systemd drop‑ins, and creating a RuntimeClass name kata so adding runtimeClassName: kata runs pods inside Kata VMs. Demo shows a Fedora pod serving HTTP and reachable. Runtime upgrades are work in progress. Operator is on OperatorHub and github.com/openshift/kata-operator.
