k0s (pronounced kay-zeroes) is a 100% open-source Kubernetes distribution that is lightweight, CNCF-conformant, and has zero dependencies other than basic Linux kernel features.
It runs smoothly anywhere, even on the most resource-constrained edge computing devices.
We recently published a whitepaper that unveils the origin of k0s, the use cases it serves, and how it frees up time for developers and system admins by greatly simplifying Kubernetes installation and maintenance.

Cloud Native Quiz Answer
Did you get the correct answer?
A: In a distributed computing environment, containerized applications need to remain ephemeral and not share their resources with other pods. This is especially true in relation to PKI and other confidential resources that pods need to access external resources. For this reason, applications need a way to query their authentication methods externally without being held in the application itself. Kubernetes Secrets act as separate objects which can be queried by the application Pod to provide credentials to the application for access to external resources.
