FAQs

• Where should I start to test the Kubernetes cluster?

You can start on your local laptop or desktop on Windows, Linux, or Mac OS, and we recommend using VMware player or Hyper-V to spin up multiple VMs so you can test out a multinode scenario. Using Multipass from Canonical is also great for creating Ubuntu VMs and it supports Linux, Mac, and Windows. Check it out here: https://multipass.run/.

Another option is to get a cloud subscription such as Microsoft Azure, AWS, or GCP, using which you can provision a VM with a click-through experience.

• Where can I find the latest Kubernetes release to test out?

The Kubernetes GitHub repository is where you can find all the releases as well as changelogs, and you can get the latest release and build it by yourself: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes.

We can also use kubeadm or minikube to get Kubernetes, as they are aligned with the Kubernetes source code delivery cycle and are up to date.
