Introduction to Talos, the Kubernetes OS

I recently came across Talos, an immutable OS for Kubernetes and was immediately sold. Talos is precisely what I was striving to build during my 6+ (incredible) years atEasyMile and it does it well and cleanly.

Talos is a minimalistic, secure by default, immutable OS for Kubernetes with transactional upgrades, fully controlled through APIs (no SSH) with built-in secure-boot and TPM-anchored disk encryption. While minimalistic and immutable, it still provides a powerful extension system to support features like Kata-Containers or Nvidia drivers (and many more). In many ways, it reminds me of CoreOS, which wasacquired by RedHat for $250 million in 2018.
