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.

ZFS 2.2.0 (RC): Block Cloning merged
I use it in Kubernetes via https://github.com/openebs/zfs-localpv
The PersistentVolume API is a nice way to divvy up a shared resource across different teams, and using ZFS for that gives us the snapshotting, deduplication, and compression for free. For our workloads, it benchmarked faster than XFS so it was a no-brainer.

OpenEBS on MicroK8S on Hetzner
Last few months I experimented more and more with all OpenEBS solutions that fit small Kubernetes cluster, using MicroK8S and Hetzner Cloud for a real experience.
- Openebs ?? Or equivalent

Network Storage on On-Prem Barebones Machine
I would investigate https://openebs.io/ https://portworx.com/ https://longhorn.io/ if you are forced to you can mount ISCSI on the kublet and feed it to one of those solutions. Keep in mind most of the big guys buy some sort of managed solution that you can point a CSI like trident https://netapp-trident.readthedocs.io

Ask HN: What are some fun projects to run on a home K8s cluster?
What are some cool projects to self hosted on a home Raspberry Pi (64 bit) Kubernetes cluster (Helm charts). arm64 support is a must. A lot of projects only build amd64 Docker containers which don't run on my cluster.
I currently run:
- obenebs (provides abstraction for using local k8s worker disks as PVC mounts when running on-prem) -- https://openebs.io/
-
Finally got around to doing that Ceph on ZFS experiment
I didn't set anything actually -- I need to look into whether OpenEBS ZFS LocalPV can facilitate passing ZVOL options (I don't think it can just yet). The only tuning I did on the storage class was the usual ZFS-level options.

My self-hosting infrastructure, fully automated
What do you use to provision Kubernetes persistent volumes on bare metal? I’m looking at open-ebs (https://openebs.io/).
Also, when you bump the image tag in a git commit for a given helm chart, how does that get deployed? Is it automatic, or do you manually run helm upgrade commands?

Building a "complete" cluster locally
Ideas from my kubernetes experience: * Cert-Manager is very popular and almost a must-have if you terminate SSL inside the cluster * Backups using velero * A dashboard/UI is actually very helpful to quickly browse resources, client tools like k9s are fine too * Secret: Management: Bitnami Sealed Secrets is the second big project in that space * I would add Loki to aggregate Logs * Never heard of ory. Usually I see (dex)[https://dexidp.io/] or keycloak used for Authentication * I like to run OpenEBS as in-cluster storage. * Istio isn't compatible with the upcomming ServiceMeshInterface (i think), so the trend seem to go toward Linkerd * Some Operator to deploy your favorite Database, is also a nice learning exercise.

Linux fu: getting started with systemd
For self-hosting I've found https://k3s.io to be really good from the SUSE people. Works on basically any Linux distro and makes self-hosting k8s not miserable.

Nix is a better Docker image builder than Docker's image builder
Yes it’s going to depend on which k8s distribution you’re using. We have work in-progress for k3s to natively support nix-snapshotter: https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/pull/9319
For other distributions, nix-snapshotter works with official containerd releases so it’s just a matter of toml configuration and a systemd unit for nix-snapshotter.
We run Kubernetes outside of NixOS, but yes the NixOS modules provided by the nix-snapshotter certainly make it simple.

K3s Traefik Ingress - configured for your homelab!
I recently purchased a used Lenovo M900 Think Centre (i7 with 32GB RAM) from eBay to expand my mini-homelab, which was just a single Synology DS218+ plugged into my ISP's router (yuck!). Since I've been spending a big chunk of time at work playing around with Kubernetes, I figured that I'd put my skills to the test and run a k3s node on the new server. While I was familiar with k3s before starting this project, I'd never actually run it before, opting for tools like kind (and minikube before that) to run small test clusters for my local development work.

Building a no-code Helm UI with Windmill - Part 1
I’ve created a local cluster with K3S and installing Windmill could not be simpler with just one chart to configure, which already has sane defaults to get started. For this demo we will also configure workers to passthrough environment variables to our scripts so that they have access to the Kubernetes API server for later.
