What makes Kairos different?
Customizable to Your Needs
With Kairos, you're in the driver's seat. Build custom bootable-OS images for your edge devices from your choice of OS and Kubernetes distribution. These images are delivered as container images, and can be customized and extended to your needs. Kairos fits neatly into your CI/CD pipelines and lets you use the container engine of choice.
Consistent and Secure
Say goodbye to inconsistencies across your clusters as each node boots from the same immutable image, ensuring uniformity. It also reduces the risk of malicious attacks, and with data encryption, your stored data remains protected, providing enhanced security for your clusters.
Easy
to Install
We believe in making things simple. With Kairos, you can set up nodes via QR code, manually, remotely via SSH, interactively or with Kubernetes.
Optimized for
Kubernetes
Kairos is optimized for running Kubernetes workloads, and Upgrades can be also done via Kubernetes. However - can also be used as a standard Linux distribution. The configuration management is done via cloud-init.
