Navigating Kairos: Immutable Operating Systems with a Cloud Native Twist
About this video
What You'll Learn
- Build Kairos images from existing Linux distributions, enabling A/B upgrades and atomic rollback.
- Configure immutable systems with OCI workflow using Dockerfiles, YAML, and the kairos-init tool.
- Compare Kairos' distro-agnostic approach with bootc and other immutable OS strategies.
Mauro Morales and Dimitris Karakasilis explain how Kairos turns any Linux distribution into an immutable, A/B-upgradeable OS shipped as an OCI image, and where it fits alongside bootc and other immutable system efforts.
