# K8s Viablility
Is K8s out of the box, self-hosted, viable ?

<!--
why is MVK 'viable' ?
Out of the box K8s examples and some deployments are not useable without other externalities
* Persistent storage - often built in to managed kubernetes cloud platforms
* Ingress - is also provided by cloud providers, K8s does not natively have this
* ETCD is often offered as the 'management plane', again as part of managed kubernetes by cloud providers
K3s does not use k8s traditional 3 node ETCD unless you configure it to do so
MKK's infctl pipelines configure 3 node k3s on all 3 nodes
it also adds Longhorn for persistent storage
ingress is impossible without metallb and some kind of load balancer - traefik being my preference but others could be used, of course
