There are two different blocks, the management stack and the runtime stack:
Management stack: This is the part of SUSE Telco Cloud that is used to manage the provision and lifecycle of the runtime stacks. It includes the following components:
Multi-cluster management in public and private cloud environments with Rancher (Chapter 6, Rancher)
Comprehensive tenant isolation and IDP (Identity Provider) integrations
Large marketplace of third-party integrations and extensions
Vendor-neutral API and rich ecosystem of providers
Control the SUSE Linux Micro transactional updates
GitOps Engine for managing the lifecycle of the clusters using Git repositories with Fleet (Chapter 9, Fleet)
Runtime stack: This is the part of SUSE Telco Cloud that is used to run the workloads.
RKE2 (Chapter 14, RKE2) serves as the security-hardened, lightweight Kubernetes distribution, optimized for edge and compliance-focused telecom environments.
(Optional) SUSE Security (Chapter 16, SUSE Security) to enable security features like image vulnerability scanning, deep packet inspection and automatic intra-cluster traffic control.
(Optional) Block Storage with SUSE Storage (Chapter 15, SUSE Storage) to enable a simple and easy way to use a cloud native storage solution.
Optimized Operating System with SUSE Linux Micro (Chapter 10, SUSE Linux Micro) to enable a secure, lightweight and immutable (transactional file system) OS for running containers. SUSE Linux Micro is available on AArch64 and AMD64/Intel 64 architectures, and it also supports Real-Time Kernel for Telco and edge use cases.
