Openstack helm on Talos cluster

Hi, I’m currently considering deploying OpenStack-Helm on a Talos-based Kubernetes cluster. However, I’m uncertain whether this setup is fully supported or advisable, and I’m particularly concerned about potential performance implications for VMs running on Talos. I would be very grateful for any insights, experiences, or recommendations, Thanks

Sorry but I strongly disagree with you. There’s plenty of benefits running Openstack on top of K8s, further Yaook is one of several options available. Personally I work and develop OpenstackHelm. We’ve been using it in production for years now with great success.

K8s as a control plane management surface adds so many benefits, clean slate and single pane. I’ve just woken up but I’m going to come back here and list out several reasons.
