Honestly, I hadn't seen klp-build. If your on SLE, I think this is a decent place to be.
Many people don't realize they can be live patching the kernel themselves.. if nothing else, hopefully this will raise awareness and get folks using tools that exist, or building on this for their specific needs.
My long term goal here, is an open service you can run for ay distro.

CVE's are coming at a rapid pace and Linux provides the tooling to live patch the kernel yourself, across your fleet, and sometimes faster than the vendor. This tooling will be built to support all Linux distributions, and will turn into an open service to make this easier for everyone

SmartOS is the core operating system for Triton datacenter -- https://www.tritondatacenter.com Triton is the orchestration of SmartOS compute nodes.
Code + issues are active under https://github.com/TritonDataCenter (smartos-live, illumos-joyent, triton, etc.), and docs are at https://docs.smartos.org/.
SmartOS is released every two weeks, and Triton is released every 8 weeks -- see https://www.tritondatacenter.com/downloads
And Triton object storage will have S3 support in the next release!

While we do still ship KVM on SmartOS, we've moved development over to bhyve - https://docs.smartos.org/bhyve/
using our package manager pkgsrc [https://pkgsrc.smartos.org/], you can install the MTA of your choice too!

SmartOS is being actively developed since the aquisition from Joyent[1] in April 2022.
We've released a new version every two weeks post acquisition, and are continuing to develop and invest.
We also hold office hours events roughly every two weeks on Discord[2], and would love for you to stop by and ask any questions, or just listen along!

We're definitely seeing an uptick in interest for Triton Datacenter[1] from vSphere users looking for alternatives.
Aside from Triton, there's a quite a bit of interest in Proxmox and XCP-ng in the community.
While alternatives are gaining popularity, they certainly do not have the same ecosystem that VMware users are accustomed to. Organizations are going to have to pony up, or make concessions.

Over here at https://mnx.io we fit that description, and we do our best to keep our IP space clean.

Our team from Triton DataCenter & SmartOS[1] is also working on an immutable Linux distribution[2] based on Debian + ZFS + LXC.
Currently this is supported on Triton DataCenter only, but our internal roadmap has us building a standalone version similar to how folks use SmartOS standalone.
