help OpenYurt FAQ
What problem does OpenYurt solve for Kubernetes deployments?
OpenYurt extends Kubernetes so workloads can run across edge sites, traditional servers, and other infrastructure while remaining managed through Kubernetes. It is designed for hybrid cloud and edge scenarios where some nodes may have limited or intermittent connectivity.
Can OpenYurt run ordinary Kubernetes containers?
Yes. OpenYurt is built around standard Kubernetes workloads, so existing pods and container images can remain part of the deployment while edge-specific features are added.
How is OpenYurt related to Kubernetes?
OpenYurt is an open-source Kubernetes extension rather than a separate container runtime. It adds edge-oriented node and workload management to the Kubernetes control model.
When would a team choose OpenYurt instead of a normal Kubernetes cluster?
OpenYurt is a better fit when one platform must manage both cloud resources and distributed edge locations. A conventional cluster may be simpler when all nodes have stable, low-latency access to the control plane.
