Getting Started with Kubernetes, Second Edition - Second Edition

By: Jonathan Baier

Overview of this book

Kubernetes has continued to grow and achieve broad adoption across various industries, helping you to orchestrate and automate container deployments on a massive scale. This book will give you a complete understanding of Kubernetes and how to get a cluster up and running. You will develop an understanding of the installation and configuration process. The book will then focus on the core Kubernetes constructs such as pods, services, replica sets, replication controllers, and labels. You will also understand how cluster level networking is done in Kubernetes. The book will also show you how to manage deployments and perform updates with minimal downtime. Additionally, you will learn about operational aspects of Kubernetes such as monitoring and logging. Advanced concepts such as container security and cluster federation will also be covered. Finally, you will learn about the wider Kubernetes ecosystem with OCP, CoreOS, and Tectonic and explore the third-party extensions and tools that can be used with Kubernetes. By the end of the book, you will have a complete understanding of the Kubernetes platform and will start deploying applications on it.

Preface

Example set up


Before we start exploring the various capabilities built into Kubernetes for scaling and updates, we will need a new example environment. We are going to use a variation of our previous container image with a blue background (refer to the v0.1 and v0.2 (side by side) image, later in this chapter, for a comparison). We have the following code:

apiVersion: v1 
kind: ReplicationController 
metadata: 
  name: node-js-scale 
  labels: 
    name: node-js-scale 
spec: 
  replicas: 1 
  selector: 
    name: node-js-scale 
  template: 
    metadata: 
      labels: 
        name: node-js-scale 
    spec: 
      containers: 
      - name: node-js-scale 
        image: jonbaier/pod-scaling:0.1 
        ports: 
        - containerPort: 80

Listing 4-1: pod-scaling-controller.yaml

apiVersion: v1 
kind: Service 
metadata: 
  name: node-js-scale 
  labels: 
    name: node-js-scale 
spec: 
  type: LoadBalancer 
  sessionAffinity: ClientIP 
  ports: 
  - port: 80 
  selector: 
    name: node-js...
