Just had a glance, so is Shifu an enhancement to some of the K8s features?

saiyan86 OP t1_iykxgsj wrote

Yes. Shifu extends the power to the world of IoT. To be more specific, k8s manages containers, and Shifu manages IoT devices (on top of k8s).

So which means it can endow Kubernetes with the ability it would otherwise not have, to manage both devices and upper layer applications in the same infrastructure, right?

Got it, but whether its K8s cluster require high performance?

k3s works too! Shifu is a CRD which only requires a k8s distribution. It doesn't have to be upstream k8s.

A raspberry Pi with 2GB RAM is sufficient.

Cool, can shifu run on a PLC board? Or similar computing unit? Any restriction so far?
