This is a means to get a cluster running on a handful of machines. It's a very bespoke way to craft a deployment and trades a lot of automation features for the ability to deploy kubernetes /literally/ anywhere Ubuntu is running.

You will need at least three VMs running Ubuntu 16.04. The size of the VM is up to you but 2 vcpu 4 gb
