Portal:Kubic
openSUSE Kubic is a project maintaining multiple container-related technologies as part of the openSUSE Project.
This primarily centers around openSUSE Kubic, an openSUSE Tumbleweed variant focused on hosting container services. openSUSE Kubic currently consists of two major components:
- openSUSE MicroOS - an openSUSE Tumbleweed based OS providing Transactional (Atomic) Updates upon a read-only btrfs root filesystem, designed to host container workloads with automated administration & patching.
- kubeadm - a Kubernetes cluster bootstrapping tool integrated as part of openSUSE Kubic to run atop openSUSE MicroOS.
Variants
MicroOS
Installing the openSUSE MicroOS System Role from Kubic gets you a quick, small environment for experimenting with containers, or any other workload that benefits from Transactional Updates.
Tumbleweed-Kubic
Tumbleweed-Kubic currently offers the following supported System Roles which can be selected during installation:
- MicroOS - openSUSE MicroOS
- MicroOS Container Host - openSUSE MicroOS plus kubeadm
