You could look at the combo of Tinkerbell and CAPI (ClusterAPI). Happy to
chat more off list.

Hello all,


I know this is primarily a networking list, but I know lots of server
admins hang out here.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a self-hosted, on premise, platform
as a service layer for k8s (specifically k3s)?

I have written up some context here:


https://github.com/TSYSGroup/docs-techops/blob/master/Applications/AppRuntimeLayerTodo.md

tl:dr : I have about 70 to 200 apps / (micro) services that will need to
run across a handful of k3s servers . I already have HA
database/networking/certificate/application load balanacer/authentication
stacks in production use, I am currently running the actual
websites/applications on a single Ubuntu LAMP server and want to build out
an HA runtime layer for all the properties/applications and need a way to
orchestrate k3s/metallb

Rancher rio has come up a few times in my research:

In addition to the web apps , I will also will be running a number of r&d
applications and CUDA enabled containers (across a mix of physical
x86/jetson/tegra machines with k3s workers).

Suggestions/comments/questions/flames welcome :)

On or off list as you prefer.
