Table 2-6: Reference Model Requirements: Cloud Infrastructure Security Requirements
2.3 Kubernetes Architecture Requirements
The Reference Model (RM) defines the Cloud Infrastructure, which consists of the physical resources, virtualised resources and a software management system. In the virtualised world, the Cloud Infrastructure consists of the Guest Operating System, Hypervisor and, if needed, other software such as libvirt. The Cloud Infrastructure Management component is responsible for, among others, tenant management, resources management, inventory, scheduling, and access management.
