Typhoon is a minimal and free Kubernetes distribution. Minimal, stable base Kubernetes distribution. Declarative infrastructure and configuration. Free (freedom and cost) and privacy-respecting. Practical for labs, datacenters, and clouds. Typhoon distributes upstream Kubernetes, architectural conventions, and cluster addons, much like a GNU/Linux distribution provides the Linux kernel and userspace components. Typhoon provides a Terraform Module for each supported operating system and platform. Define a Kubernetes cluster by using the Terraform module for your chosen platform and operating system. Initialize modules, plan the changes to be made, and apply the changes. Typhoon is strict about minimalism, maturity, and scope. Typhoon powers the author's cloud and colocation clusters. The project has evolved through operational experience and Kubernetes changes. Typhoon is shared under a free license to allow others to use the work freely and contribute to its upkeep.
