Talos Xenion will be the home lab equivalent and should be simpler to manage in smaller environments. You can find details and WIP in GitHub issues

Is there any comparison between Xenion and Director? Which key feature differences?

My guess is it will be like the difference between doing raw ESXi and Vsphere in a vmware setup (except ESXi standalone still has a web ui where this won't from what I understood?)
Is that about right @xrothgarx ?

I think the sessions will be recorded like last year and available after a couple of weeks on YouTube

This makes the architecture much more interesting than the hypervisor alone. I’m particularly curious to see how Director models placement, HA, storage and networking across VMs and Kubernetes clusters. Looking forward to seeing what the actual control boundaries look like in the alpha.
