The Sovereign Cloud Stack (SCS) is built upon the shoulders of giants: With proven technology such as OpenStack and Kubernetes the SCS project is building a modular software stack. SCS is much more than just another cloud stack - much rather SCS defines standards as part of a community process in which CSPs work together on their use-cases while also providing a reference implementation.
The reference implementation can provide the entire stack, but the technical layers can also be used independently. One of these layers is the container layer based on the Kubernetes Cluster API.
In order to use the Cluster API to install Kubernetes clusters on different cloud providers, it is necessary to make further configurations depending on the provider, as well as to provide the node images.
In our reference implementation of the container layer, we rely on ClusterStacks to realize the management of SCS-standardized Kubernetes clusters on different cloud providers. In this presentation, the speakers will address how the concept of ClusterStacks came about, how they are deployed, and the benefits they deliver in the operation of digital sovereign infrastructure.
The audience will then be able to create and manage complex and standardized Kubernetes clusters.
