Usernetes Gen2: Kubernetes in Rootless Docker, with Multiple Nodes - Akihiro Suda, NTT
Rootless mode is a technique to harden containers by running the container engine as a non-root user. The support for rootless mode has been merged into Docker since v19.03 (2019) and in Kubernetes since v1.22 (2021). However, setting up Rootless Kubernetes has been more challenging than setting up Rootless Docker due to its complexity. This session presents Usernetes Generation 2, a Kubernetes distribution that wraps Kubernetes in Rootless Docker for ease of setting up multi-node Rootless Kubernetes clusters. Unlike the original Usernetes (Generation 1) that was based on "Kubernetes The Hard Way", Usernetes Generation 2 supports kubeadm. Usernetes Generation 2 is similar to `kind` and `minikube`, however, unlike them Usernetes Generation 2 supports forming real multi-node clusters using Flannel (VXLAN) and it can be potentially used for production clusters. github.com/rootless-container...
