Lightning Talk: Kubespray CI with KubeVirt on Baremetal

on YouTube ↗04m

" summary

Kubespray CI moves from cloud VMs to baremetal by running KubeVirt inside a large metal Kubernetes cluster, letting CI create per-job namespaces that instantiate VM CRs and boot nested clusters with the same API. The project reports using this to keep the existing workflow that previously provisioned 15,000+ clusters in CI (2018), embedding VM images in container registries and relying on KubeVirt VM CRD with containerized VM images to achieve Kubernetes‑in‑Kubernetes isolation that works for end‑to‑end tests.
