Best Practices for Running on VMware

Discover best practices for running Kubernetes on VMware infrastructure in this inaugural presentation by organizers and members of the Kubernetes VMware User Group. Explore the vSphere cloud provider and related storage plugins, learn about recent features and changes, and understand how to run Kubernetes on desktop hypervisors. Gain insights into the vSphere Cloud Provider (VCP) for Kubernetes, including its past and present implementations, and the integration of Cloud Native Storage in vSphere and VSAN. Delve into policy-based management for Kubernetes workloads, dynamic provisioning workflow for block container volumes, and the VCP to CSI migration. Examine VMware desktop hypervisors like Fusion and Workstation, and learn about Project Nautilus for running OCI containers without Docker. Get information on desktop hypervisor resources, including download links for various platforms, and learn how to set up Minikube on Workstation for Windows. Conclude with an introduction to the Kubernetes VMware User Group and discover how to get involved in this community-driven initiative.
