Taking a quick look around on their website it seems you can have them host for you or self-host but absolutely requires k8s. If I'm wrong, point me to the doc that shows you how to self-host without k8s and I'll officially be excited.

It doesn’t require k8s — you run their agent binary on multiple hosts and they all get connected. You can deploy the same agent in k8s also if you want.

Yep that's right, we do not require k8s. There's a ton of existing infrastructure into k8s so we try to make it apparent how you integrate there. The local CLI, wash, is an example of how we run locally, it's just a Windows/Mac/Linux binary and then the WebAssembly components are architecture/OS agnostic.

We use NATS to connect distributed hosts and manage distributed state (e.g. no etcd) so as long as you can connect the NATS servers you can run anywhere.
