  • K3s is an embedded Kubernetes distribution by a Californian company called Rancher, which is owned by the Enterprise Linux Giant SUSE.

    Kubernetes works on the idea of masters and workers. I.e. you usually cannot bring up (“schedule”) containers (pods) on the master nodes (control nodes for brevity). K3s does away with such limitations, meaning you can just run one VM with k3s and run containers on top.

    Although if Kubernetes is too hard I would push you towards Podman.

    I do not know the extrapolation for CSI but Longhorn is a storage backend of Kubernetes for persistent storage across nodes
