I started out using <a href="https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Docker-Desktop</a> and <a href="https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">minikube</a> to get the basics of Docker and Kubernetes down.</p> <p>Eventually I got to a point where I was feeling pretty comfortable and I really wanted a way to scale up my knowledge and put it to the test. I considered running Kubernetes nodes as VMs inside of a Proxmox host as well as running smaller nodes in the cloud but with my current setup Proxmox felt like a waste of power and running it in the cloud would have been exorbitantly expensive (shocker!).</p>
