Abstract:

Cluster API With a Bit of PXE Dust: bringing cloud-native declarative management of Kubernetes clusters into the datacenter

Kubernetes allows for managing applications with declarative configuration and the Cluster API project allows for declarative management of Kubernetes Clusters across various cloud providers. What if you could bring that same declarative management for Kubernetes infrastructure into the data center? We are attempting to do just that by leveraging the Tinkerbell project.
