10 minutes from bare metal to KubeVirt - Robin Nepomuk Mai and Usman Malik
summary
MAAS PXE boots bare metal into an OS image, Juju uses Juju charms to deploy a bundle that installs Kubernetes (containerd), Ceph OSD/mon storage and exposes Ceph CSI, and kube-ovn provides per-namespace subnets for isolation. KubeVirt runs VMs as pods via its launcher and CDI-imported images, with demoed ping isolation between namespaces and Ceph-backed VM disks. Upgrades change the bundle version (1.26→1.27) and Juju orchestrates rolling worker/control-plane updates. Key components: MAAS PXE boot, kube-ovn subnets, KubeVirt VMs as pods.
