Multipass Description

With one command, you can instantly create an Ubuntu VM. Multipass can launch virtual machines, configure them with cloud init like a public cloud, and even run them. Free prototyping of your cloud launch locally Multipass will show you how easy it can be to have a lightweight cloud in your hands within five minutes. Let's start a few LTS instances. Let's list them, exec one command, use cloud init, and clean up any old instances. The Ubuntu Server CLI cheatsheet is your quick guide to learning Linux command line, from basic file management to deploying Kubernetes or OpenStack. Multipass is a command-line interface that allows you to launch, manage, and otherwise fiddle with Linux instances. A minty-fresh image can be downloaded in a matter of seconds and a VM can then be up and running in minutes. Launch Ubuntu instances and initialize them with cloud-init metadata such as AWS, Azure Google, IBM, IBM, and Oracle clouds. Simulate your cloud deployment on your computer.

cloud-init Reviews
cloud-init
Cloud images are operating system templates. Every instance starts as an identical copy of every other instance. It is the user data that gives each cloud instance its personality. Cloud-init is the tool that automatically applies that user data to your instances. You can include datasource and module references. There are many examples. Cloud-init was originally developed for Ubuntu but is now available on most major Linux and FreeBSD operating system platforms. Cloud-init automatically handles differences between cloud image providers -- for example, official Ubuntu cloud images are identical across both public and private clouds.

Spot Ocean Reviews
Spot Ocean
Spot Ocean allows you to reap the benefits Kubernetes without worrying too much about infrastructure, while simultaneously gaining deep cluster visibility. This can dramatically reduce costs. The key question is how can containers be used without the operational overhead of managing underlying VMs, while still maximizing the cost benefits associated to multi-cloud and spot instances. Spot Ocean solves this problem by managing containers within a "Serverless” environment. Ocean is an abstraction over virtual machines that allows Kubernetes clusters to be deployed without the need for managing the underlying VMs. Ocean makes use of multiple compute purchasing options such as Spot and Reserved instance pricing. It also has failover to On Demand instances whenever necessary, resulting in a 80% reduction in infrastructure expenses. Spot Ocean is a Serverless Compute Engine. It abstracts the provisioning (launching), autoscaling and management of worker nodes within Kubernetes clusters.
