Daniel,
I appreciate the insights into the challenges. The goal that you
stated, though, is going to be hard to achieve with a limitation of
bare-metal only for developers. See the other thread in this forum for the
service mesh. The kind of resource requirements, as stated in that thread,
needed to do something like that on CRC will rarely be found on a developer
laptop. So, for someone like me, the choice really boils down to running a
full-fledged OCP on a dedicated machine / VM if I want to try out /
experience something like the OpenShift Service Mesh. And such dedicated
machines / VMs are hard to come by unless one uses the public cloud. So, I
hope that running in such an environment becomes easier for CRC.
Regards,
Marvin
