What is going on with Kubernetes Microdistros?
5 projects | /r/kubernetes | 26 Jun 2022

I knew little about code and network infrastructure at the time, but after several months I could get a cluster running reliably and quickly, with my apps secured and accessible outside of the office (though not the management layer, because that always seemed like a terrible idea). The key to pulling this off was to utilize distros that were quick to install and only ran what was needed for Kubernetes. At first, this was RancherOS with RKE for getting the cluster running. After that, I started using K3OS, which streamlined things even more. I made an entire repo about how I pulled it off, if anyone is interested.

Well, Cluster API depends on underlying providers and the VMWare provider is definitely a VMWare thing as it's maintained by them:
