“deploying a K3S cluster with meta-virtualization” by Bruce Ashfield

The meta-virtualization layer has been providing core virtualization and container support to the OpenEmbedded community since 2012. This talk is an example of how to build and deploy a test cluster using components only from meta-virtualization. This includes the server and agent, along with supporting utilities and user space components. High level comparisons to alternate k3s providers will be considered and discussed. The presentation will cover the basic definitions, the building blocks and how they should be configured for a functional, single node system (running in a virtual machine). It will also show how a sample service can be deployed to the cluster once it is up and running. Finally it will illustrate future work and remaining items to allow K3S from meta-virtualization to be part of a local test pipeline.
