Kubernetes VMware User Group Intro: Best Practices for Running on VMware

on YouTube ↗33m

" summary

Overview of concrete outcomes and compatibility: introduces the out‑of‑tree vSphere CSI driver tied to a new CNS control plane that provisions first class disks instead of temporary VMs, adds file PVs, offline resize, Velero snapshots, per‑PV encryption and Prometheus metrics, and runs on vSphere 6.7 U3+ and 7.x. Provides a migration beta (Kubernetes 1.19 + vSphere 7.0 U1) that rewrites VMDKs to FCDs and redirects in‑tree calls, with a projected in‑tree cutoff around 1.21. Shows local dev workflow using kind via the vcuddle CLI and a Tekton CI demo.
