Minimal Viable Kubernetes (MVK)
Kubernetes is a powerful orchestrator, but by design, it expects key infrastructure components—such as ingress controllers, persistent storage, and load balancers—to be pre-existing.
For those operating in self-hosted or “on-prem” environments, providing these prerequisites in a way Kubernetes can consume can be a significant hurdle. Often, the time spent setting up a development or “lab” environment outweighs the time spent actually learning or deploying applications. MVK was created to bridge this gap, providing the “missing pieces” needed to make Kubernetes functional in any environment.
