Settings up k8s cluster on single vm

OpenSearch

Great answers. Just to elaborate a little more. https://k3s.io/ is kubernetes but packed into a binary to simplify the layers of configuration and removing misconfiguration. It works across multiple platforms and even raspberry pis on ARM processors. It's footprint in compared to k8s is significantly lower. K3s 0.25cpu and 512mb ram. It almost contains everything k8s, but missing some alpha APIs and advanced CRD capability. For running Elastic search. K3s is great and will work well. Also K3s can be clustered which means you can run it in production and they have documentation to help you with k3s for production. So developing on k3s will be scalable. https://rancher.com/docs/rancher/v2.5/en/installation/resources/k8s-tutorials/ha-with-external-db/ Depending how many clusters your company will have. You Should consider using rancher to deploy and maintain your kubernetes automatically and the server it sits on. Bonus: check out OpenSearch https://opensearch.org/ this is AWS version of the elastic project. It bakes in security and Auth and multi tenancy and for free. To get the x-pack license can be very costly. Double Bonus: check out Max shards per node in elasticsearch. This is a gotcha that acrews up plans for how you reiterate over your buckets. Best of luck in the implementation.
