Ask HN: Options for K8s On-Prem
4 points by xyst on Aug 30, 2023 | hide | past | favorite | 1 comment
Doing some research into managing kubernetes clusters via on-premise infrastructure.

From what I gather, Rancher is the most popular with both community/open source and paid offerings. But there does not appear to be any other products.

Anybody here have experience with Rancher? Are there any alternatives I may have overlooked? I prefer OSS over proprietary or cloud based



You could do that with Ansible, there's kubespray [0] from the official project to do that. You may want to read [1] starting with [2]. There's also k3s [0] and k0s [4]. I've written about my setup here [5] also if you are interested.
