  • Docker for Rancher?
    3 projects | /r/kubernetes | 16 Oct 2022
    I'd suggest move from rancher to EKS Anywhere and the respective Cluster API providers... Self-managed node pools on top of bottlerocket can be established using common terraform-aws-eks module, otherwise.
  • Is setting up a production k8s a one-man job?
    6 projects | /r/kubernetes | 13 Oct 2022
    There are plenty of vendor specific bugs, like no EBS in [EKS Fargate](https://github.com/aws/containers-roadmap/issues/1113), and settling a Kubernetes cluster on top of Bottlerocket and [EKS Anywhere](https://github.com/aws/eks-anywhere), on your own is somewhat impossible.

  • Systemd by Example

    > It has no init system.

    Apologies that I can't link directly to the "--init" flag but docker actually does have an init, it's just (err, was?) compiled into the binary: https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/run/#op...

    My recollection is that it either adopted, or inspired, https://github.com/Yelp/dumb-init#readme which folks used to put into their Dockerfile as the init system back in the day

    Folks (ahem, I'm looking at you, eks-anywhere[0]) who bundle systemd into a docker container are gravely misguided, and the ones which do so for the ability to launch sshd alongside the actual container's main process are truly, truly lost
