With Kairos you can build immutable, bootable Kubernetes and OS images for your edge devices as easily as writing a Dockerfile. Optional P2P mesh with distributed ledger automates node bootstrapping and coordination. Updating nodes is as easy as CI/CD: push a new image to your container registry and let secure, risk-free A/B atomic upgrades do the rest.

This repository hosts the code for provider binary used in Kairos "standard" images which offer full-mesh support. full-mesh support currently is available only with k3s, and the provider follows strictly k3s releases.
Note
The provider-kairos release pipelines have been merged with the kairos ones from version 2.4.0
onward. All image artifacts are released from the kairos repository, both core images and standard images (those with the provider).
To use Kairos with mesh support, download the bootable medium form the kairos releases.
Follow up the examples in our documentation on how to get started:
- https://kairos.io/docs/examples/single-node/
- https://kairos.io/docs/examples/multi-node/
- https://kairos.io/docs/examples/multi-node-p2p-ha-kubevip/
Upgrading can be done either via Kubernetes or manually with kairos-agent upgrade --image <image>
, or you can list available versions with kairos-agent upgrade list-releases
.
Container images available for upgrades are pushed to quay, you can check out the image matrix in our documentation.
