MINC: Speed Up Local K8s Dev
· 5 min read
Developers working locally often seek a fast inner loop for coding, building, and testing their OCI images and Kubernetes applications.
For instance, when testing a new image in a Kubernetes pod, the image must be accessible either by pushing it to a private or public registry or by ensuring it's available on the Kubernetes cluster nodes. This often requires additional commands such as kind load docker-image
, minikube cache add <image>
, or publishing the image to a third-party registry.
In this blog post, we’ll introduce a new extension called MINC (MicroShift IN Container)
, which provides a MicroShift cluster running within an existing Podman Machine environment.
