Kubernetes finally ultra-simple and lightweight with K3S
summary
K3S is an ultra-lightweight Kubernetes distribution from Rancher provided as a 50MB binary that bundles containerd, Flannel, Traefik and uses SQLite by default (with optional external datastores like Postgres/MySQL). The talk demonstrates installing k3s as a systemd service and using k3d/ketchup to create a three-master cluster in under ten minutes, add agents, run applications and dashboards, and cleanly tear the cluster down.
