Have you used Kata containers or are interested in using them? - eviltoast

It seems like a good idea to me since I already have a few podman containers running inside VMs to separate them, but the resources are eaten up. On the other hand, its Oracle.

What are your thought on putting containers into VM?

    No, what’s that

    But I don’t really like the idea of relying on something that today Oracle gives for free. Tomorrow?

    I was looking at this yesterday. I haven’t tried it yet, but I think I’m going to either give it a shot or try something like what fly.io does to launch container images using firecracker.

    I set up kata containers on my k3s cluster for some pesky containers that require privileged access. It works great for isolation purposes. I haven’t yet experimented with the kata-qemu runtime so not sure how that works.
