  • Some thoughts on cert-manager moving from Bazel to Make
    2 projects | /r/kubernetes | 25 Apr 2022
    So for example, in my own personal infra repos and for projects I do, Make orchestrates Pulumi, dnscontrol (Holy shit is that tool underrated), ansible, k0s/k0sctl (I run that distro), and all the kubernetes stuff.
  • Is the Synology NAS able to run a Kubernetes Cluster ?
    2 projects | /r/synology | 28 Feb 2022
    I wasn’t able to run Kubernetes in NAS last time I tried it. https://github.com/k0sproject/k0s/issues/1184. As for public access you don’t want to do it for security reasons and instead rely on vpn. Tailscale and ZeroTier are easy to setup.

    actually that is not really true - i strongly urge you to try out http://k3s.io/ or https://k0sproject.io/

    these are full-fledged, certified k8s distributions that run on raspberry pi as well as all the way in production.
