K3s Homelab for Edge Computing Experiments
At this point, we have explored essential topics to create your own edge computing cluster. The previous chapters covered how to configure and install a K3s cluster. Building small and big solutions at home involves experimenting. In this chapter, we are going to start building a simple but real cluster, using the knowledge acquired in the previous chapters. We will refer to this environment as the K3s homelab. Once this cluster is created, we are going to deploy a simple application. We will use this as a quickstart method of using Kubernetes with your cluster. In the last part of this chapter, we are going to use the Kubernetes dashboard as a simple UI to manage Kubernetes clusters.
