📄️ Immutable
Learn about Kairos' immutable architecture design, where the system boots in a restricted, permissionless mode with read-only paths. Discover how this approach enhances security, simplifies maintenance, and enables predictable upgrades across your infrastructure.
📄️ Container
Discover how Kairos delivers its entire OS as a container image, enabling predictable upgrades and simple version control.
📄️ Cloud init based
Kairos supports the standard cloud-init syntax and its own extended syntax to allow to configure a system declaratively with a cloud-config centric approach.
📄️ SecureBoot support
Learn how Kairos supports Secure Boot using signed artifacts to ensure system integrity across distributions.
📄️ Meta-Distribution
We like to define Kairos as a meta-Linux Distribution, as its goal is to convert other distros to an immutable layout with Kubernetes Native components.
📄️ P2P Network
How Kairos leverage Peer-to-peer (P2P) to self-coordinate clusters at the edge.
📄️ Trusted Boot
Trusted boot is a combination of technologies that allows us to enhance the security posture of a running system. It is composed by FDE, Secure Boot and Measured Boot.
📄️ Providers
Understand Kairos providers, how they integrate with kairos-agent, and how provider-kairos fits into the architecture.
