bottlerocket VS spegel

According to this discussion - starting with Bottlerocket 1.13.0 (Mar 2023) new distributions will default to using Cgroups v2 interface for process organization and enforcing resource limits.

Well, the link I provided references the Bottlerocket docs which explains the control container and the admin container and also how you can configure Bottlerocket via the User Data field when launching it as an AMI. All the information appears to be in the docs

On the server-side, there's Bottlerocket OS [1] (Amazon). They use A/B partitions for upgrades, and the idea is that you just run containers for anything non-base. Boot containers are used to do custom configuration at boot, and host-container (or DaemonSet, if you run K8S) is used for long-running services.

Bottlerocket OS.

To add to the other excellent answers, I would recommend adding Bottlerocket to your reading list: https://github.com/bottlerocket-os/bottlerocket#readme

I'm also aware of (but haven't used) https://github.com/siderolabs/talos#readme

I just realized your question may have implied a desktop os, whereas Bottlerocket, Flatcar, and likely the others in this specific thread are server-side. I don't have much experience with trying to solve that problem on the desktop except for the horror-show that is snap

https://github.com/bottlerocket-os/bottlerocket/issues/2855 soon for bottlerocket, maybe you’ll see Amazon Linux 2023 for eks nodes soon too?

I think open sourcing for free labor is a common misconception. Most corporate led open source projects (eg, https://github.com/bottlerocket-os/bottlerocket from AWS or https://github.com/facebook/relay from Facebook) still require a team of employees.

Bottlerocket might be worth a look. https://github.com/bottlerocket-os/bottlerocket

I’m trying out spegel, so far, it’s been great

As other stated, check disk space, PullPolicy etc. However, local caching can be done using tools like Spegel that makes sure each node gets all images used in the cluster for faster restarts.

I also recently found spegel, where each Cluster Node provides its images to the other nodes: https://github.com/XenitAB/spegel

I have avoided a couple of incidents caused by images being removed or momentarily not reachable with it. It would at least mitigate any immediate issues caused by images being removed from Docker Hub.
