A few years ago, I backed an exciting project on Kickstarter—Turing Pi v2, the second generation of there product. Turing Pi V2 is a mini ITX clustering board originally designed for the Raspberry Pi. What caught my attention was the vision for this new iteration: support for not only the Raspberry Pi but also Nvidia Jetson and other System on Modules (SOMs) using different processors.
For me, this was more than just a cool gadget. It was a unique opportunity to dive deeper into automation and Kubernetes. Turing Pi’s versatile board setup provided the perfect platform to experiment with and manage a variety of nodes. This allows me to push the boundary for what I could in my own lab.
The second-generation Turing Pi opened up a lot of doors in terms of flexibility and scale. This is exactly what I needed to refine my skills in automating tasks and managing Kubernetes clusters. It’s been an incredible tool for both learning and development.

Update:
I received an updated board from TuringPi (Hardware version 2.5), which I’ll be posting about as well.
