Since Kubernetes already has a clear path of "in-tree" volume plugin to CSI migration. I would like to understand the concept of CSI with writing a simple driver for Kubernetes.

Agama Expert Partitioner by joseivanlopez
Description
Agama is a new Linux installer that will be very likely used for SLES 16.
It offers an UI for configuring the target system (language, patterns, network, etc). One of the more complex sections is the storage configuration, which is going to be revamped. This project consists on exploring the possibility of having something similar to the YaST Expert Partitioner for Agama.
Goals
- Explore different approaches for the storage UI in Agama.
Multi-pod, autoscalable Elixir application in Kubernetes using K8s resources by socon
Description
Elixir / Erlang use their own solutions to create clusters that work together. Kubernetes provide its own orchestration. Due to the nature of the BEAM, it looks a very promising technology for applications that run in Kubernetes and requite to be always on, specifically if they are created as web pages using Phoenix.
Goals
- Investigate and provide solutions that work in Phoenix LiveView using Kubernetes resources, so a multi-pod application can be used
- Provide an end to end example that creates and deploy a container from source code.

Integrate Backstage with Rancher Manager by nwmacd
Description
Backstage (backstage.io) is an open-source, CNCF project that allows you to create your own developer portal. There are many plugins for Backstage.
This could be a great compliment to Rancher Manager.
Goals
Learn and experiment with Backstage and look at how this could be integrated with Rancher Manager. Goal is to have some kind of integration completed in this Hack week.
Progress
Screen shot of home page at the end of Hackweek:
Day One
- Got Backstage running locally, understanding configuration with HTTPs.
- Got Backstage embedded in an IFRAME inside of Rancher
- Added content into the software catalog (see: https://backstage.io/docs/features/techdocs/getting-started/)
- Understood more about the entity model
Day Two
- Connected Backstage to the Rancher local cluster and configured the Kubernetes plugin.
- Created Rancher theme to make the light theme more consistent with Rancher
Days Three and Day Four
Created two backend plugins for Backstage:
- Catalog Entity Provider - this imports users from Rancher into Backstage
- Auth Provider - uses the proxied sign-in pattern to check the Rancher session cookie, to user that to authenticate the user with Rancher and then log them into Backstage by connecting this to the imported User entity from the catalog entity provider plugin.
With this in place, you can single-sign-on between Rancher and Backstage when it is deployed within Rancher. Note this is only when running locally for development at present
Day Five
- Start to build out a production deployment for all of the above
- Made some progress, but hit issues with the authentication and proxying when running proxied within Rancher, which needs further investigation
Setup Kanidm as OIDC provider on Kubernetes by jkuzilek
Description
I am planning to upgrade my homelab Kubernetes cluster to the next level and need an OIDC provider for my services, including K8s itself.
Goals
- Successfully configure and deploy Kanidm on homelab cluster
- Integrate with K8s auth
- Integrate with other services (Envoy Gateway, Container Registry, future deployment of Forgejo?)

Install Uyuni on Kubernetes in cloud-native way by cbosdonnat
Description
For now installing Uyuni on Kubernetes requires running mgradm
on a cluster node... which is not what users would do in the Kubernetes world. The idea is to implement an installation based only on helm charts and probably an operator.
Goals
Install Uyuni from Rancher UI.

Extending KubeVirtBMC's capability by adding Redfish support by zchang
Description
In Hack Week 23, we delivered a project called KubeBMC (renamed to KubeVirtBMC now), which brings the good old-fashioned IPMI ways to manage virtual machines running on KubeVirt-powered clusters. This opens the possibility of integrating existing bare-metal provisioning solutions like Tinkerbell with virtualized environments. We even received an inquiry about transferring the project to the KubeVirt organization. So, a proposal was filed, which was accepted by the KubeVirt community, and the project was renamed after that. We have many tasks on our to-do list. Some of them are administrative tasks; some are feature-related. One of the most requested features is Redfish support.
Goals
Extend the capability of KubeVirtBMC by adding Redfish support. Currently, the virtbmc component only exposes IPMI endpoints. We need to implement another simulator to expose Redfish endpoints, as we did with the IPMI module. We aim at a basic set of functionalities:
- Power management
- Boot device selection
- Virtual media mount (this one is not so basic
)
