Cluster API requires node images that come with the following components:

  • kubeadm
  • CNI plugins
  • kubelet
  • kubectl

In addition to that, we need to provide:

  • conntrack

Why do we need conntrack?

kubelet depends on it. Also kube-proxy I think, which we could actually avoid with Calico running eBPF (#17).

Implementation of ignition in Cluster API is unmaintained and still supports only v2.

When we introduced ignition there was a general commitment to pay down the tech debt introduced by this choice before making further improvements in this area, but also for this effort there are no volunteers showing up (and it is a few years now)
