| K3s packages Kubernetes control-plane operation into a simplified distribution with reduced external dependencies. K3s uses a server-and-agent architecture: a server node runs control-plane and datastore components managed by K3s, while an agent node runs without datastore or control-plane components. Both server and agent nodes run the kubelet, container runtime, and container networking interface. | K3s packages Kubernetes control-plane operation into a simplified distribution with reduced external dependencies.

| Generalised from the official K3s documentation and K3s architecture description, and its use as a deployment concern in [[private:fxdemo:04-part:start]] and [[private:fxdemo:05-part:start]]. K3s describes itself as a certified Kubernetes distribution for production workloads in unattended, resource-constrained, remote, IoT, and edge environments. Its architecture defines server nodes and agent nodes, with both running kubelet, container runtime, and container networking interface components. | Generalised from the official K3s documentation and K3s architecture description, and its use as a deployment concern in [[private:01-fxdemo:04-part:start]] and [[private:01-fxdemo:05-part:start]].
