Katakate is built on top of Kata, and sets up a stack combining Kubernetes (K3s), Kata, Firecracker, and devmapper snapshotter for thin pool provisioning. Combining these tools together is highly non-trivial and can be a headache for many, especially for AI engs who are often more comfortable with Python workflows. The stack gets deployed with an Ansible playbook. It implements a CLI, API and Python SDK to make it super easy to use. A lot of defense in depth settings are also baked-in so that you don't need to understand those systems at a low level to get a secure setup.
