Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Bare-Metal Kubernetes, Part I: Talos on Hetzner
Speaking of k8s, anyone here know of ready-made solutions for getting XCode (i.e. xcodebuild) running in pods? As far as I'm aware, there are no good solutions for getting XCode running on Linux, so at the moment I'm just futzing about with a virtual-kubelet[0] implementation that spawns MacOS VMs. This works just fine, but the problem seems like such an obvious one that I expect there to be some existing solution(s) I just missed.

Keeping Airflow tasks “cloud-native”
Have you looked into virtual kubelet yet? It allows you to make a virtual node in your on-prem cluster that schedules workloads on services like AWS Fargate or Azure Container Instances.
-
Similar to AWS Fargate provider?
If you are serious about implementing this yourself, you may want to look into virtual kubelet: https://virtual-kubelet.io/
- Nomad vs. Kubernetes

Deploy on prem Kubernetes. What is the best approach paid and unpaid to deploy a cluster on premise with burst to azure/aws? The only need is the ability to have some static pods. I do have a preference for free/open source solutions.
I just stumbled upon this project a while back and don't have experience with it, so I don't know how well it works and what caveats you may face, but there's Virtual Kubelet, which aims to do just that, i.e. running a virtual Kubernetes node outside the cluster. Its Kip provider sounds like the thing you're looking for.

How to use the GitOps model to create, update and manage applications at the edge with KubeEdge and Argo
Kubeedge docs are light on self-justification... How does https://github.com/kubeedge/kubeedge differ from https://github.com/virtual-kubelet/virtual-kubelet or just running a regular kubelet on that edge machine?

Autoscaling Redis applications on Kubernetes 🚀🚀
If this sounds interesting, do check out Virtual Nodes in Azure Kubernetes Service to see how you can use them to seamlessly scale your applications to Azure Container Instances and benefit from quick provisioning of pods, and only pay per second for their execution time. The virtual nodes add-on for AKS, is based on the open source project Virtual Kubelet which is an open source Kubernetes kubelet implementation.

Infrastructure Engineering - Diving Deep
Use cases like these are made possible by projects like KubeEdge , K3s and Virtual Kubelets. You can read more about how they power the edge with different architectures and compromises here.

Evolving Container Security with Linux User Namespaces
This is a complicated question to answer.
This isn't my expertise (the cluster orchestration system), but I can answer to the best of my abilities: Titus, today is a system that sits on top of Kubernetes, and uses Kubernetes components to do its thing, but we've substituted many of the systems with our own. For example, closer to my area of knowledge, we've used our own executor / provider along with the Virtual Kubelet project (https://github.com/virtual-kubelet/virtual-kubelet) instead of Kubelet.
We're exploring where we can leverage the Kubernetes ecosystem, adapt components, or help contribute changes back that others can leverage to enable our use of more COTS components of Kubernetes.
tl;dr: We're swapping out the engines while in flight

Scaling Kubernetes to multiple clusters and regions
The project is similar (in spirit) to kubefed.

Build a Federation of Multiple Kubernetes Clusters With Kubefed V2
What Is KubeFed? KubeFed (Kubernetes Cluster Federation) allows you to use a single Kubernetes cluster to coordinate multiple Kubernetes clusters. It can deploy multiple-cluster applications in different regions and design for disaster recovery. To learn more about KubeFed: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubefed

Evolution of code deployment tools at Mixpanel
There's active work on a standard called kubefed [0] that is being worked on.
> I want a scale-to-zero node-pool in every region, and one kube master api for the world.
Personally, I'd generalize this to: "I want to describe the reliability requirements and configuration for my software and have an automated system solve for where, how many, when, and how to route to it"
I want to have something where I can say "I need to have high availability, lowest latency, and X GB of RAM and Y cores" and have a system automatically schedule me wherever compute is cheapest while also intelligently routing traffic to my servers based on client origins.

Building a Kubernetes-based Solution in a Hybrid Environment by Using KubeMQ
Two of the more common approaches to deploying Kubernetes in hybrid environments are from cloud-to-cloud and cloud to on-prem. Whether this is from using a single control plane like Rancher, Platform9, or Gardener to create multiple clusters that are managed from a single location, or utilizing Kubernetes federation to create a cluster that spans different regions, this model has become a key feature offered by Kubernetes that has helped drive adoption.

Infrastructure Engineering — Deployment Strategies
This is made possible by the very nature of Kubernetes being a standard portable platform across cloud providers, ability to manage infrastructure as code, ability to setup networking between them whenever needed with the help of multi-cluster service meshes and also due to the ability to orchestrate the deployments using Kubefed and Crossplane.

Architecting your Cloud Native Infrastructure
And the interesting thing about networking in cloud is that it need not be just be limited to the cloud provider within your region but can span across multiple providers across multiple regions as needed and this is where projects like Kubefed, Crossplane definitely does help.
-
Infrastructure Engineering - Diving Deep
Projects like Kubefed and Crossplane are especially useful here since they help you to manage and orchestrate clusters and the requests you send across different cloud providers even if its going to be across regions.
What are some alternatives?
kubeedge - Kubernetes Native Edge Computing Framework (project under CNCF)
crossplane - The Cloud Native Control Plane
kubevirt - Kubernetes Virtualization API and runtime in order to define and manage virtual machines.
