Orchestration with Kubernetes on
summary
Orka runs macOS as lightweight, containerized VMs on Apple hardware using Docker and Kubernetes and claims near–bare‑metal performance with the virtualization tax “virtually vanished.” It exposes REST, CLI, and UI driven workflows, supports ephemeral macOS VMs with base‑image commit/save, spins an agent in ≈1 minute, lets Jenkins create Jenkins on-demand agents with idle‑termination (demo used 5 minutes), and accepts raw/qcow images while the k8s cluster schedules VMs across Mac Pros.
