Talos Linux: Rethink running Kubernetes

Like Flatcar, Talos is minimal by design; unlike Flatcar, it gets that way by adding just what it needs to a stripped down Linux kernel that only runs cryptographically signed modules. It has only a handful of binaries, including its own process manager...

A running theme with quite a few of the pieces I'm doing for The Stack this year is 'what can I replace VMware with, because I don't want to pay what Broadcom wants to charge'; Talos shows up in several migrations from VMware to OpenStack, perhaps because it's one less thing to secure and stabilise.
