## The Charmed Distribution of Kubernetes(CDK)
[CDK](https://www.ubuntu.com/cloud/kubernetes) is a distribution of Kubernetes
packaged as a bundle of *charms* for Juju, the open source application modeller.
CDK is the latest version of Kubernetes with upstream binaries, packaged in a format
which makes it fast and easy to deploy. It supports various public
and private clouds including AWS, GCE, Azure, Joyent, OpenStack, VMware, Bare Metal
and localhost deployments.
See the [Official documentation](https://www.ubuntu.com/kubernetes/docs) for
more information.
## MicroK8s
[MicroK8s](https://microk8s.io) is a minimal install of Kubernetes designed to run locally.
It can be installed on Ubuntu (or any snap enabled operating system) with the command:
```shell
snap install microk8s --classic
```
Full documentation is available on the [MicroK8s website](https://microk8s.io/docs)
