OKD Virtualization is the community project bringing traditional virtualization technology into OKD. It’s built on top of the KubeVirt project and the Hyperconverged Cluster Operator project. HCO ensures a single installable unit for Kubevirt and its sibling components leveraging the operator framework to provide the easiest way of installing and maintaining this additional control plane. This bundle will ship additional tools required to do traditional virtualization tasks like uploading disk images, host network configuration, local storage provisioning, and other functionality which is not covered by the core KubeVirt. On top of this a user interface embedded within the OKD Console is provided for managing the lifecycle of the Virtual Machines. Virtual Machines from other virtualization systems can be imported into OKD Virtualization leveraging the Konveyor Forklift project. Meet the OKD Virtualization community and learn about it!

After this session you will Know what KubeVirt is Know what HCO (Hyper Converged Cluster Operator) is and how it relates to KubeVirt How the OKD UI is presenting VMs A rough idea of the featureset of what this setup provides Seen a demo, and knowledge of how to set this up yourself
