Hi, I am researching k3s vs. k0s (Mirantis) for a medium-to-large-scale distributed edge orchestration project - think > 1K nodes. Has anyone here done the comparison or has experience with k0s? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Hello! I haven't done a comparison on that scale. However for a couple nodes, both K3s and K0s perform similarly. Maybe an advantage with K0s is that there are different processes for each component (for example, there's a distinct containerd process which you won't see with K3s) Either way, there's nothing out there which is against using K3s or K0s at such a scale.

@clever-air-65544 do we have something on that ?

For 1K+ nodes I can point you towards our scale testing requirements for K3s. I have no idea what K0s requires (I'm sure its somewhat similar). FYI on that docs page, ignore the current section on

Large Clusters

its out of date and I have it on my TODO to update it.

Is there anyone at Rancher I can talk to? We are looking to deploy 4000 and 320 nodes at 2 sites using k3/0s and rancher fleet or k0rdent to manage the k3/k0s clusters.
