K3s is a lightweight, certified Kubernetes distribution built for IoT & Edge computing, developed by Rancher Labs, which is now supported by SUSE since the 2020 acquisition. K3s is available free and open source under the Apache 2.0 license.

AWS IoT Core is a managed cloud service that lets connected devices interact with cloud applications and other devices. It includes the Device Gateway and the Message Broker, which connect and process messages between IoT devices and the cloud. AWS IoT Core  connects AWS and Amazon services like AWS Lambda, Amazon Kinesis, Amazon S3, Amazon SageMaker, Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon CloudWatch, AWS CloudTrail, Amazon QuickSight, and Alexa Voice Service to build IoT applications that gather, process, analyze and act on data generated by connected devices, without having to manage any infrastructure. The AWS IoT Device and Mobile SDKs include open-source libraries, developer guides with samples, and porting guides so that users can build innovative IoT products or solutions on your choice of hardware platforms.

We use K3s Lightweight Kubernetes as a local Kubernetes cluster distribution for local development and when installing Kubernetes virtual clusters. We either use K3s Lightweight Kubernetes with rancher-desktop or k3d running on our workstations or through vcluster when we want to deploy virtual Kubernetes clusters for ephemeral clusters or for testing Kubernetes versions that are not supported by the managed Kubernetes service from the Cloud Provider.

Option to deploy a self managed k3s in the cloud
Support to deploy it with kubeadm
Integration with prometheus & grafana

Engineers have been able to run more microservices locally with K3s Lightweight Kubernetes instead of Minikube, which is more resources hungry
