  • k3s

    Lightweight Kubernetes

  • My recommendation: get a working K8S "cluster": k3s is a good start as it sets up everything (incl. PV, ingress, LB) on a single machine. Now you can concentrate on having your first app in Kubernetes. Once you got that you can build your own K8S cluster or use GKE or similar if you don't want to worry too much about the management part.

  • longhorn

    Cloud-Native distributed storage built on and for Kubernetes

  • You'll quickly find out that you need some persistent storage or some replication for the DB part: that's where you need persistent volumes like Longhorn or an external storage provider mechanism. Like NFS or iSCSI. You don't need PVs for stateless apps and many apps if well done, are stateless. That's how they scale after all.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
