[kata-dev] kata in non-baremetal environments

Hi,
it seems that nowadays a large chunk of k8s deployments being run in
virtualized enviroments (i.e. some form of public/private IaaS system).
So using kata-containers in such an enviroment means that the VMs
spawned by kata are running nested inside the VMs of the k8s cluster.
Given that nested virtualization adds quite a bit of overhead (in
certain cases I believe) and that it still seems to be considered
experimental [0]. Is that really the way to go or is kata-containers
really more just aiming for baremetal k8s deployments?
regards,
Ralf
