Kairos - Kubernetes-focused, Cloud Native Linux meta-distribution


The immutable Linux meta-distribution for edge Kubernetes.


With Kairos you can build immutable, bootable Kubernetes and OS images for your edge devices as easily as writing a Dockerfile. Optional P2P mesh with distributed ledger automates node bootstrapping and coordination. Updating nodes is as easy as CI/CD: push a new image to your container registry and let secure, risk-free A/B atomic upgrades do the rest. Kairos is part of the Secure Edge-Native Architecture (SENA) to securely run workloads at the Edge (whitepaper).

Kairos (formerly c3os) is an open-source project which brings Edge, cloud, and bare metal lifecycle OS management into the same design principles with a unified Cloud Native API.

At-a-glance:

  • :bowtie: Community Driven
  • :octocat: Open Source
  • 🔒 Linux immutable, meta-distribution
  • 🔑 Secure
  • 🐳 Container-based
  • 🐧 Distribution agnostic

Kairos can be used to:

  • Easily spin-up a Kubernetes cluster, with the Linux distribution of your choice 🐧
  • Create your Immutable infrastructure, no more infrastructure drift! 🔒
  • Manage the cluster lifecycle with Kubernetes—from building to provisioning, and upgrading 🚀
  • Create a multiple—node, a single cluster that spans up across regions 🌍
