  • kind

    Kubernetes IN Docker - local clusters for testing Kubernetes

  • One of the use cases mentioned here is testing. One should also look at kind [1]. It is light weight, a really good candidate to setup dev environments.

  • k0s

    k0s - The Zero Friction Kubernetes

  • k3d

    Little helper to run CNCF's k3s in Docker

  • kubevirt

    Kubernetes Virtualization API and runtime in order to define and manage virtual machines.

  • Docker Desktop runs dockerd in a Linux VM with Apple's hypervisor framework. You can also run containers in a Linux VM with Parallels or VMware Fusion hypervisors. But you can't run VMs inside those VMs as it stands today. This works fine on Intel Macs which means you can't experiment and use KVM - one of the killer features of Linux and things like https://kubevirt.io/

  • amazon-vpc-cni-k8s

    Networking plugin repository for pod networking in Kubernetes using Elastic Network Interfaces on AWS

  • I believe you're correct, although pedantically that would only apply if one is using their vpc-cni <https://github.com/aws/amazon-vpc-cni-k8s#readme> and not with a competing CNI. Kubelet offers a configurable for the number of Pods per Node <https://github.com/kubernetes/kubelet/blob/v0.26.2/config/v1...> which defaults to 110 for what I would presume is CIDR or pid cgroups reasons and thus is unlikely to differ by instance size as the ENI limit you mention does (IIRC)

  • kubelet

    kubelet component configs

  • amazon-eks-ami

    Packer configuration for building a custom EKS AMI

  • # of pods are essentially capped by the worker node choice.

      # Mapping is calculated from AWS EC2 API using the following formula:
