KubeVirt

Extend Kubernetes with Virtual Machine Management

KubeVirt empowers your Kubernetes environment by adding native support for running and managing virtual machines (VMs) alongside containers. It seamlessly integrates VMs into the Kubernetes ecosystem, allowing users to create, manage, and scale both containerized and virtualized workloads within a unified platform. With KubeVirt, you can modernize legacy applications by bringing VMs into cloud-native infrastructures, benefiting from Kubernetes orchestration, scaling, and networking capabilities. This results in streamlined management of hybrid workloads, reducing complexity while maximizing infrastructure utilization. The interface is designed to align with Kubernetes' resource models, making it intuitive for those familiar with Kubernetes. Users can define and manage VMs through custom resources, interact with the VMs via native Kubernetes APIs, and leverage powerful tooling for automation and scaling. Key components include integration with Kubernetes core functionalities like networking, storage, and scheduling, as well as support for advanced features such as live migration, CPU pinning, and NUMA-aware scheduling. KubeVirt also integrates with popular tools like Istio for service mesh support, and supports cloud-native CI/CD workflows to manage virtualized workloads effectively.
