Pods - Kubernetes - 0 views

  • Pods are the smallest deployable units of computing
  • A Pod (as in a pod of whales or pea pod) is a group of one or more containersA lightweight and portable executable image that contains software and all of its dependencies. (such as Docker containers), with shared storage/network, and a specification for how to run the containers.
  • A Pod’s contents are always co-located and co-scheduled, and run in a shared context.
  • ...32 more annotations...
  • A Pod models an application-specific “logical host”
  • application containers which are relatively tightly coupled
  • being executed on the same physical or virtual machine would mean being executed on the same logical host.
  • The shared context of a Pod is a set of Linux namespaces, cgroups, and potentially other facets of isolation
  • Containers within a Pod share an IP address and port space, and can find each other via localhost
  • Containers in different Pods have distinct IP addresses and can not communicate by IPC without special configuration. These containers usually communicate with each other via Pod IP addresses.
  • Applications within a Pod also have access to shared volumesA directory containing data, accessible to the containers in a pod. , which are defined as part of a Pod and are made available to be mounted into each application’s filesystem.
  • a Pod is modelled as a group of Docker containers with shared namespaces and shared filesystem volumes

  • Pods are considered to be relatively ephemeral (rather than durable) entities.
  • Pods are created, assigned a unique ID (UID), and scheduled to nodes where they remain until termination (according to restart policy) or deletion.
  • it can be replaced by an identical Pod
  • When something is said to have the same lifetime as a Pod, such as a volume, that means that it exists as long as that Pod (with that UID) exists.
  • uses a persistent volume for shared storage between the containers
  • Pods serve as unit of deployment, horizontal scaling, and replication
  • The applications in a Pod all use the same network namespace (same IP and port space), and can thus “find” each other and communicate using localhost
  • flat shared networking space
  • Containers within the Pod see the system hostname as being the same as the configured name for the Pod.
  • Volumes enable data to survive container restarts and to be shared among the applications within the Pod.
  • Individual Pods are not intended to run multiple instances of the same application
  • The individual containers may be versioned, rebuilt and redeployed independently.
  • Pods aren’t intended to be treated as durable entities.
  • Controllers like StatefulSet can also provide support to stateful Pods.
  • When a user requests deletion of a Pod, the system records the intended grace period before the Pod is allowed to be forcefully killed, and a TERM signal is sent to the main process in each container.
  • Once the grace period has expired, the KILL signal is sent to those processes, and the Pod is then deleted from the API server.
  • grace period
  • Pod is removed from endpoints list for service, and are no longer considered part of the set of running Pods for replication controllers.
  • When the grace period expires, any processes still running in the Pod are killed with SIGKILL.
  • By default, all deletes are graceful within 30 seconds.
  • You must specify an additional flag --force along with --grace-period=0 in order to perform force deletions.
  • Force deletion of a Pod is defined as deletion of a Pod from the cluster state and etcd immediately.
  • StatefulSet Pods
  • Processes within the container get almost the same privileges that are available to processes outside a container.

  • A chart is a collection of files that describe a related set of Kubernetes resources.
  • A single chart might be used to deploy something simple, like a memcached pod, or something complex, like a full web app stack with HTTP servers, databases, caches, and so on.
  • Charts are created as files laid out in a particular directory tree, then they can be packaged into versioned archives to be deployed.
  • ...170 more annotations...
  • A chart is organized as a collection of files inside of a directory.
  • values.yaml # The default configuration values for this chart
  • charts/ # A directory containing any charts upon which this chart depends.
  • templates/ # A directory of templates that, when combined with values, # will generate valid Kubernetes manifest files.
  • version: A SemVer 2 version (required)
  • apiVersion: The chart API version, always "v1" (required)
  • Every chart must have a version number. A version must follow the SemVer 2 standard.
  • non-SemVer names are explicitly disallowed by the system.
  • When generating a package, the helm package command will use the version that it finds in the Chart.yaml as a token in the package name.
  • the appVersion field is not related to the version field. It is a way of specifying the version of the application.
  • appVersion: The version of the app that this contains (optional). This needn't be SemVer.
  • If the latest version of a chart in the repository is marked as deprecated, then the chart as a whole is considered to be deprecated.
  • deprecated: Whether this chart is deprecated (optional, boolean)
  • one chart may depend on any number of other charts.
  • dependencies can be dynamically linked through the requirements.yaml file or brought in to the charts/ directory and managed manually.
  • the preferred method of declaring dependencies is by using a requirements.yaml file inside of your chart.
  • A requirements.yaml file is a simple file for listing your dependencies.
  • The repository field is the full URL to the chart repository.
  • you must also use helm repo add to add that repo locally.
  • helm dependency update and it will use your dependency file to download all the specified charts into your charts/ directory for you.
  • When helm dependency update retrieves charts, it will store them as chart archives in the charts/ directory.
  • Managing charts with requirements.yaml is a good way to easily keep charts updated, and also share requirements information throughout a team.
  • All charts are loaded by default.
  • The condition field holds one or more YAML paths (delimited by commas). If this path exists in the top parent’s values and resolves to a boolean value, the chart will be enabled or disabled based on that boolean value.
  • The tags field is a YAML list of labels to associate with this chart.
  • all charts with tags can be enabled or disabled by specifying the tag and a boolean value.
  • The --set parameter can be used as usual to alter tag and condition values.
  • Conditions (when set in values) always override tags.
  • The first condition path that exists wins and subsequent ones for that chart are ignored.
  • The keys containing the values to be imported can be specified in the parent chart’s requirements.yaml file using a YAML list. Each item in the list is a key which is imported from the child chart’s exports field.
  • specifying the key data in our import list, Helm looks in the exports field of the child chart for data key and imports its contents.
  • the parent key data is not contained in the parent’s final values. If you need to specify the parent key, use the ‘child-parent’ format.
  • To access values that are not contained in the exports key of the child chart’s values, you will need to specify the source key of the values to be imported (child) and the destination path in the parent chart’s values (parent).
  • To drop a dependency into your charts/ directory, use the helm fetch command
  • A dependency can be either a chart archive (foo-1.2.3.tgz) or an unpacked chart directory.
  • name cannot start with _ or .. Such files are ignored by the chart loader.
  • a single release is created with all the objects for the chart and its dependencies.
  • Helm Chart templates are written in the Go template language, with the addition of 50 or so add-on template functions from the Sprig library and a few other specialized functions
  • When Helm renders the charts, it will pass every file in that directory through the template engine.
  • Chart developers may supply a file called values.yaml inside of a chart. This file can contain default values.
  • Chart users may supply a YAML file that contains values. This can be provided on the command line with helm install.
  • When a user supplies custom values, these values will override the values in the chart’s values.yaml file.
  • Template files follow the standard conventions for writing Go templates
  • {{default "minio" .Values.storage}}
  • Values that are supplied via a values.yaml file (or via the --set flag) are accessible from the .Values object in a template.
  • pre-defined, are available to every template, and cannot be overridden
  • the names are case sensitive
  • Release.Name: The name of the release (not the chart)
  • Release.IsUpgrade: This is set to true if the current operation is an upgrade or rollback.
  • Release.Revision: The revision number. It begins at 1, and increments with each helm upgrade
  • Chart: The contents of the Chart.yaml
  • Files: A map-like object containing all non-special files in the chart.
  • Files can be accessed using {{index .Files "file.name"}} or using the {{.Files.Get name}} or {{.Files.GetString name}} functions.
  • .helmignore
  • access the contents of the file as []byte using {{.Files.GetBytes}}
  • Any unknown Chart.yaml fields will be dropped
  • Chart.yaml cannot be used to pass arbitrarily structured data into the template.
  • A values file is formatted in YAML.
  • A chart may include a default values.yaml file
  • be merged into the default values file.
  • The default values file included inside of a chart must be named values.yaml
  • accessible inside of templates using the .Values object
  • Values files can declare values for the top-level chart, as well as for any of the charts that are included in that chart’s charts/ directory.
  • Charts at a higher level have access to all of the variables defined beneath.
  • lower level charts cannot access things in parent charts
  • Values are namespaced, but namespaces are pruned.
  • the scope of the values has been reduced and the namespace prefix removed
  • Helm supports special “global” value.
  • a way of sharing one top-level variable with all subcharts, which is useful for things like setting metadata properties like labels.
  • If a subchart declares a global variable, that global will be passed downward (to the subchart’s subcharts), but not upward to the parent chart.
  • global variables of parent charts take precedence over the global variables from subcharts.
  • helm lint
  • A chart repository is an HTTP server that houses one or more packaged charts
  • Any HTTP server that can serve YAML files and tar files and can answer GET requests can be used as a repository server.
  • Helm does not provide tools for uploading charts to remote repository servers.
  • the only way to add a chart to $HELM_HOME/starters is to manually copy it there.
  • Helm provides a hook mechanism to allow chart developers to intervene at certain points in a release’s life cycle.
  • Execute a Job to back up a database before installing a new chart, and then execute a second job after the upgrade in order to restore data.
  • Hooks are declared as an annotation in the metadata section of a manifest
  • Hooks work like regular templates, but they have special annotations
  • pre-install
  • post-install: Executes after all resources are loaded into Kubernetes
  • pre-delete
  • post-delete: Executes on a deletion request after all of the release’s resources have been deleted.
  • pre-upgrade
  • post-upgrade
  • pre-rollback
  • post-rollback: Executes on a rollback request after all resources have been modified.
  • crd-install
  • test-success: Executes when running helm test and expects the pod to return successfully (return code == 0).
  • test-failure: Executes when running helm test and expects the pod to fail (return code != 0).
  • Hooks allow you, the chart developer, an opportunity to perform operations at strategic points in a release lifecycle
  • Tiller then loads the hook with the lowest weight first (negative to positive)
  • Tiller returns the release name (and other data) to the client
  • If the resources is a Job kind, Tiller will wait until the job successfully runs to completion.
  • if the job fails, the release will fail. This is a blocking operation, so the Helm client will pause while the Job is run.
  • If they have hook weights (see below), they are executed in weighted order. Otherwise, ordering is not guaranteed.
  • good practice to add a hook weight, and set it to 0 if weight is not important.
  • The resources that a hook creates are not tracked or managed as part of the release.
  • leave the hook resource alone.
  • To destroy such resources, you need to either write code to perform this operation in a pre-delete or post-delete hook or add "helm.sh/hook-delete-policy" annotation to the hook template file.
  • Hooks are just Kubernetes manifest files with special annotations in the metadata section
  • One resource can implement multiple hooks
  • no limit to the number of different resources that may implement a given hook.
  • When subcharts declare hooks, those are also evaluated. There is no way for a top-level chart to disable the hooks declared by subcharts.
  • Hook weights can be positive or negative numbers but must be represented as strings.
  • sort those hooks in ascending order.
  • Hook deletion policies
  • "before-hook-creation" specifies Tiller should delete the previous hook before the new hook is launched.
  • By default Tiller will wait for 60 seconds for a deleted hook to no longer exist in the API server before timing out.
  • Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) are a special kind in Kubernetes.
  • The crd-install hook is executed very early during an installation, before the rest of the manifests are verified.
  • A common reason why the hook resource might already exist is that it was not deleted following use on a previous install/upgrade.
  • Helm uses Go templates for templating your resource files.
  • two special template functions: include and required
  • include function allows you to bring in another template, and then pass the results to other template functions.
  • The required function allows you to declare a particular values entry as required for template rendering.
  • If the value is empty, the template rendering will fail with a user submitted error message.
  • When you are working with string data, you are always safer quoting the strings than leaving them as bare words
  • Quote Strings, Don’t Quote Integers
  • when working with integers do not quote the values
  • env variables values which are expected to be string
  • to include a template, and then perform an operation on that template’s output, Helm has a special include function
  • The above includes a template called toYaml, passes it $value, and then passes the output of that template to the nindent function.
  • Go provides a way for setting template options to control behavior when a map is indexed with a key that’s not present in the map
  • The required function gives developers the ability to declare a value entry as required for template rendering.
  • The tpl function allows developers to evaluate strings as templates inside a template.
  • Rendering a external configuration file
  • (.Files.Get "conf/app.conf")
  • Image pull secrets are essentially a combination of registry, username, and password.
  • Automatically Roll Deployments When ConfigMaps or Secrets change
  • configmaps or secrets are injected as configuration files in containers
  • a restart may be required should those be updated with a subsequent helm upgrade
  • The sha256sum function can be used to ensure a deployment’s annotation section is updated if another file changes
  • checksum/config: {{ include (print $.Template.BasePath "/configmap.yaml") . | sha256sum }}
  • helm upgrade --recreate-pods
  • "helm.sh/resource-policy": keep
  • resources that should not be deleted when Helm runs a helm delete
  • this resource becomes orphaned. Helm will no longer manage it in any way.
  • create some reusable parts in your chart
  • In the templates/ directory, any file that begins with an underscore(_) is not expected to output a Kubernetes manifest file.
  • by convention, helper templates and partials are placed in a _helpers.tpl file.
  • The current best practice for composing a complex application from discrete parts is to create a top-level umbrella chart that exposes the global configurations, and then use the charts/ subdirectory to embed each of the components.
  • SAP’s Converged charts: These charts install SAP Converged Cloud a full OpenStack IaaS on Kubernetes. All of the charts are collected together in one GitHub repository, except for a few submodules.
  • Deis’s Workflow: This chart exposes the entire Deis PaaS system with one chart. But it’s different from the SAP chart in that this umbrella chart is built from each component, and each component is tracked in a different Git repository.
  • YAML is a superset of JSON
  • any valid JSON structure ought to be valid in YAML.
  • As a best practice, templates should follow a YAML-like syntax unless the JSON syntax substantially reduces the risk of a formatting issue.
  • There are functions in Helm that allow you to generate random data, cryptographic keys, and so on.
  • a chart repository is a location where packaged charts can be stored and shared.
  • A chart repository is an HTTP server that houses an index.yaml file and optionally some packaged charts.
  • Because a chart repository can be any HTTP server that can serve YAML and tar files and can answer GET requests, you have a plethora of options when it comes down to hosting your own chart repository.
  • It is not required that a chart package be located on the same server as the index.yaml file.
  • A valid chart repository must have an index file. The index file contains information about each chart in the chart repository.
  • The Helm project provides an open-source Helm repository server called ChartMuseum that you can host yourself.
  • $ helm repo index fantastic-charts --url https://fantastic-charts.storage.googleapis.com
  • A repository will not be added if it does not contain a valid index.yaml
  • add the repository to their helm client via the helm repo add [NAME] [URL] command with any name they would like to use to reference the repository.
  • Helm has provenance tools which help chart users verify the integrity and origin of a package.
  • Integrity is established by comparing a chart to a provenance record
  • The provenance file contains a chart’s YAML file plus several pieces of verification information
  • Chart repositories serve as a centralized collection of Helm charts.
  • Chart repositories must make it possible to serve provenance files over HTTP via a specific request, and must make them available at the same URI path as the chart.
  • We don’t want to be “the certificate authority” for all chart signers. Instead, we strongly favor a decentralized model, which is part of the reason we chose OpenPGP as our foundational technology.
  • The Keybase platform provides a public centralized repository for trust information.
  • A chart contains a number of Kubernetes resources and components that work together.
  • A test in a helm chart lives under the templates/ directory and is a pod definition that specifies a container with a given command to run.
  • The pod definition must contain one of the helm test hook annotations: helm.sh/hook: test-success or helm.sh/hook: test-failure
  • helm test
  • nest your test suite under a tests/ directory like <chart-name>/templates/tests/

  • Without a max history set the history is kept indefinitely, leaving a large number of records for helm and tiller to maintain.
  • helm init --upgrade
  • Whenever you install a chart, a new release is created.
  • one chart can be installed multiple times into the same cluster. And each can be independently managed and upgraded.
  • helm list function will show you a list of all deployed releases.
  • helm delete
  • helm status
  • you can audit a cluster’s history, and even undelete a release (with helm rollback).
  • the Helm server (Tiller).
  • The Helm client (helm)
  • brew install kubernetes-helm
  • Tiller, the server portion of Helm, typically runs inside of your Kubernetes cluster.
  • it can also be run locally, and configured to talk to a remote Kubernetes cluster.
  • Role-Based Access Control - RBAC for short
  • create a service account for Tiller with the right roles and permissions to access resources.
  • run Tiller in an RBAC-enabled Kubernetes cluster.
  • run kubectl get pods --namespace kube-system and see Tiller running.
  • helm inspect
  • Helm will look for Tiller in the kube-system namespace unless --tiller-namespace or TILLER_NAMESPACE is set.
  • For development, it is sometimes easier to work on Tiller locally, and configure it to connect to a remote Kubernetes cluster.
  • even when running locally, Tiller will store release configuration in ConfigMaps inside of Kubernetes.
  • helm version should show you both the client and server version.
  • Tiller stores its data in Kubernetes ConfigMaps, you can safely delete and re-install Tiller without worrying about losing any data.
  • helm reset
  • The --node-selectors flag allows us to specify the node labels required for scheduling the Tiller pod.
  • --override allows you to specify properties of Tiller’s deployment manifest.
  • helm init --override manipulates the specified properties of the final manifest (there is no “values” file).
  • The --output flag allows us skip the installation of Tiller’s deployment manifest and simply output the deployment manifest to stdout in either JSON or YAML format.
  • By default, tiller stores release information in ConfigMaps in the namespace where it is running.
  • switch from the default backend to the secrets backend, you’ll have to do the migration for this on your own.
  • a beta SQL storage backend that stores release information in an SQL database (only postgres has been tested so far).
  • Once you have the Helm Client and Tiller successfully installed, you can move on to using Helm to manage charts.
  • Helm requires that kubelet have access to a copy of the socat program to proxy connections to the Tiller API.
  • A Release is an instance of a chart running in a Kubernetes cluster. One chart can often be installed many times into the same cluster.
  • helm init --client-only
  • helm init --dry-run --debug
  • A panic in Tiller is almost always the result of a failure to negotiate with the Kubernetes API server
  • Tiller and Helm have to negotiate a common version to make sure that they can safely communicate without breaking API assumptions
  • helm delete --purge
  • Helm stores some files in $HELM_HOME, which is located by default in ~/.helm
  • A Chart is a Helm package. It contains all of the resource definitions necessary to run an application, tool, or service inside of a Kubernetes cluster.
  • it like the Kubernetes equivalent of a Homebrew formula, an Apt dpkg, or a Yum RPM file.
  • A Repository is the place where charts can be collected and shared.
  • Set the $HELM_HOME environment variable
  • each time it is installed, a new release is created.
  • Helm installs charts into Kubernetes, creating a new release for each installation. And to find new charts, you can search Helm chart repositories.
  • chart repository is named stable by default
  • helm search shows you all of the available charts
  • helm inspect
  • To install a new package, use the helm install command. At its simplest, it takes only one argument: The name of the chart.
  • If you want to use your own release name, simply use the --name flag on helm install
  • additional configuration steps you can or should take.
  • Helm does not wait until all of the resources are running before it exits. Many charts require Docker images that are over 600M in size, and may take a long time to install into the cluster.
  • helm status
  • helm inspect values
  • helm inspect values stable/mariadb
  • override any of these settings in a YAML formatted file, and then pass that file during installation.
  • helm install -f config.yaml stable/mariadb
  • --values (or -f): Specify a YAML file with overrides.
  • --set (and its variants --set-string and --set-file): Specify overrides on the command line.
  • Values that have been --set can be cleared by running helm upgrade with --reset-values specified.
  • Chart designers are encouraged to consider the --set usage when designing the format of a values.yaml file.
  • --set-file key=filepath is another variant of --set. It reads the file and use its content as a value.
  • inject a multi-line text into values without dealing with indentation in YAML.
  • An unpacked chart directory
  • When a new version of a chart is released, or when you want to change the configuration of your release, you can use the helm upgrade command.
  • Kubernetes charts can be large and complex, Helm tries to perform the least invasive upgrade.
  • It will only update things that have changed since the last release
  • $ helm upgrade -f panda.yaml happy-panda stable/mariadb
  • deployment
  • If both are used, --set values are merged into --values with higher precedence.
  • The helm get command is a useful tool for looking at a release in the cluster.
  • helm rollback
  • A release version is an incremental revision. Every time an install, upgrade, or rollback happens, the revision number is incremented by 1.

  • Limiting Tiller to only be able to install into specific namespaces and/or resource types is controlled by Kubernetes RBAC roles and rolebindings
  • Release names are unique PER TILLER INSTANCE
  • Charts should only contain resources that exist in a single namespace.
  • not recommended to have multiple Tillers configured to manage resources in the same namespace.
  • a client-side Helm plugin. A plugin is a tool that can be accessed through the helm CLI, but which is not part of the built-in Helm codebase.
  • Helm plugins are add-on tools that integrate seamlessly with Helm. They provide a way to extend the core feature set of Helm, but without requiring every new feature to be written in Go and added to the core tool.
  • Helm plugins live in $(helm home)/plugins
  • The Helm plugin model is partially modeled on Git’s plugin model
  • helm referred to as the porcelain layer, with plugins being the plumbing.
  • helm plugin install https://github.com/technosophos/helm-template
  • command is the command that this plugin will execute when it is called.
  • Environment variables are interpolated before the plugin is executed.
  • The command itself is not executed in a shell. So you can’t oneline a shell script.
  • Helm is able to fetch Charts using HTTP/S
  • Variables like KUBECONFIG are set for the plugin if they are set in the outer environment.
  • In Kubernetes, granting a role to an application-specific service account is a best practice to ensure that your application is operating in the scope that you have specified.
  • restrict Tiller’s capabilities to install resources to certain namespaces, or to grant a Helm client running access to a Tiller instance.
  • Service account with cluster-admin role
  • The cluster-admin role is created by default in a Kubernetes cluster
  • Deploy Tiller in a namespace, restricted to deploying resources only in that namespace
  • Deploy Tiller in a namespace, restricted to deploying resources in another namespace
  • When running a Helm client in a pod, in order for the Helm client to talk to a Tiller instance, it will need certain privileges to be granted.
  • SSL Between Helm and Tiller
  • The Tiller authentication model uses client-side SSL certificates.
  • creating an internal CA, and using both the cryptographic and identity functions of SSL.
  • Helm is a powerful and flexible package-management and operations tool for Kubernetes.
  • default installation applies no security configurations

  • With great power comes great responsibility.
  • Choose the Best Practices you should apply to your helm installation
  • Role-based access control, or RBAC
  • Tiller’s gRPC endpoint and its usage by Helm
  • Kubernetes employ a role-based access control (or RBAC) system (as do modern operating systems) to help mitigate the damage that can be done if credentials are misused or bugs exist.
  • In the default installation the gRPC endpoint that Tiller offers is available inside the cluster (not external to the cluster) without authentication configuration applied.
  • Tiller stores its release information in ConfigMaps. We suggest changing the default to Secrets.
  • release information
  • charts
  • charts are a kind of package that not only installs containers you may or may not have validated yourself, but it may also install into more than one namespace.
  • As with all shared software, in a controlled or shared environment you must validate all software you install yourself before you install it.

Guide to Service Discovery with Docker - 0 views

  • The Service Discovery feature watches for Docker events like when a container is created, destroyed, started or stopped. When one of these happens, the Agent identifies which service is impacted, loads the configuration template for this image, and automatically sets up its checks.
  • Configuration templates can be defined by simple template files or as single key-value stores using etcd or Consul.

Swarm mode key concepts | Docker Documentation - 0 views

  • The cluster management and orchestration features embedded in the Docker Engine are built using SwarmKit.
  • Docker engines participating in a cluster are running in swarm mode
  • A swarm is a cluster of Docker engines, or nodes, where you deploy services
  • ...19 more annotations...
  • When you run Docker without using swarm mode, you execute container commands.
  • When you run the Docker in swarm mode, you orchestrate services.
  • You can run swarm services and standalone containers on the same Docker instances.
  • A node is an instance of the Docker engine participating in the swarm
  • You can run one or more nodes on a single physical computer or cloud server
  • To deploy your application to a swarm, you submit a service definition to a manager node.
  • Manager nodes also perform the orchestration and cluster management functions required to maintain the desired state of the swarm.
  • Manager nodes elect a single leader to conduct orchestration tasks.
  • Worker nodes receive and execute tasks dispatched from manager nodes.
  • service is the definition of the tasks to execute on the worker nodes
  • When you create a service, you specify which container image to use and which commands to execute inside running containers.
  • replicated services model, the swarm manager distributes a specific number of replica tasks among the nodes based upon the scale you set in the desired state.
  • global services, the swarm runs one task for the service on every available node in the cluster.
  • A task carries a Docker container and the commands to run inside the container
  • Manager nodes assign tasks to worker nodes according to the number of replicas set in the service scale.
  • Once a task is assigned to a node, it cannot move to another node
  • If you do not specify a port, the swarm manager assigns the service a port in the 30000-32767 range.
  • External components, such as cloud load balancers, can access the service on the PublishedPort of any node in the cluster whether or not the node is currently running the task for the service.
  • Swarm mode has an internal DNS component that automatically assigns each service in the swarm a DNS entry.

Kubernetes Components | Kubernetes - 0 views

  • A Kubernetes cluster consists of a set of worker machines, called nodes, that run containerized applications
  • Every cluster has at least one worker node.
  • The control plane manages the worker nodes and the Pods in the cluster.
  • ...29 more annotations...
  • The control plane's components make global decisions about the cluster
  • Control plane components can be run on any machine in the cluster.
  • for simplicity, set up scripts typically start all control plane components on the same machine, and do not run user containers on this machine
  • The API server is the front end for the Kubernetes control plane.
  • kube-apiserver is designed to scale horizontally—that is, it scales by deploying more instances. You can run several instances of kube-apiserver and balance traffic between those instances.
  • Kubernetes cluster uses etcd as its backing store, make sure you have a back up plan for those data.
  • watches for newly created Pods with no assigned node, and selects a node for them to run on.
  • Factors taken into account for scheduling decisions include: individual and collective resource requirements, hardware/software/policy constraints, affinity and anti-affinity specifications, data locality, inter-workload interference, and deadlines.
  • each controller is a separate process, but to reduce complexity, they are all compiled into a single binary and run in a single process.
  • Node controller
  • Job controller
  • Endpoints controller
  • Service Account & Token controllers
  • The cloud controller manager lets you link your cluster into your cloud provider's API, and separates out the components that interact with that cloud platform from components that only interact with your cluster.
  • If you are running Kubernetes on your own premises, or in a learning environment inside your own PC, the cluster does not have a cloud controller manager.
  • An agent that runs on each node in the cluster. It makes sure that containers are running in a Pod.
  • The kubelet takes a set of PodSpecs that are provided through various mechanisms and ensures that the containers described in those PodSpecs are running and healthy.
  • The kubelet doesn't manage containers which were not created by Kubernetes.
  • kube-proxy is a network proxy that runs on each node in your cluster, implementing part of the Kubernetes Service concept.
  • kube-proxy maintains network rules on nodes. These network rules allow network communication to your Pods from network sessions inside or outside of your cluster.
  • kube-proxy uses the operating system packet filtering layer if there is one and it's available.
  • Kubernetes supports several container runtimes: Docker, containerd, CRI-O, and any implementation of the Kubernetes CRI (Container Runtime Interface).
  • Addons use Kubernetes resources (DaemonSet, Deployment, etc) to implement cluster features
  • namespaced resources for addons belong within the kube-system namespace.
  • all Kubernetes clusters should have cluster DNS,
  • Cluster DNS is a DNS server, in addition to the other DNS server(s) in your environment, which serves DNS records for Kubernetes services.
  • Containers started by Kubernetes automatically include this DNS server in their DNS searches.
  • Container Resource Monitoring records generic time-series metrics about containers in a central database, and provides a UI for browsing that data.
  • A cluster-level logging mechanism is responsible for saving container logs to a central log store with search/browsing interface.

Kubernetes Deployments: The Ultimate Guide - Semaphore - 1 views

  • Continuous integration gives you confidence in your code. To extend that confidence to the release process, your deployment operations need to come with a safety belt.
  • these Kubernetes objects ensure that you can progressively deploy, roll back and scale your applications without downtime.
  • A pod is just a group of containers (it can be a group of one container) that run on the same machine, and share a few things together.
  • ...34 more annotations...
  • the containers within a pod can communicate with each other over localhost
  • From a network perspective, all the processes in these containers are local.
  • we can never create a standalone container: the closest we can do is create a pod, with a single container in it.
  • Kubernetes is a declarative system (by opposition to imperative systems).
  • All we can do, is describe what we want to have, and wait for Kubernetes to take action to reconcile what we have, with what we want to have.
  • In other words, we can say, “I would like a 40-feet long blue container with yellow doors“, and Kubernetes will find such a container for us. If it doesn’t exist, it will build it; if there is already one but it’s green with red doors, it will paint it for us; if there is already a container of the right size and color, Kubernetes will do nothing, since what we have already matches what we want.
  • The specification of a replica set looks very much like the specification of a pod, except that it carries a number, indicating how many replicas
  • What happens if we change that definition? Suddenly, there are zero pods matching the new specification.
  • the creation of new pods could happen in a more gradual manner.
  • the specification for a deployment looks very much like the one for a replica set: it features a pod specification, and a number of replicas.
  • Deployments, however, don’t create or delete pods directly.
  • When we update a deployment and adjust the number of replicas, it passes that update down to the replica set.
  • When we update the pod specification, the deployment creates a new replica set with the updated pod specification. That replica set has an initial size of zero. Then, the size of that replica set is progressively increased, while decreasing the size of the other replica set.
  • we are going to fade in (turn up the volume) on the new replica set, while we fade out (turn down the volume) on the old one.
  • During the whole process, requests are sent to pods of both the old and new replica sets, without any downtime for our users.
  • A readiness probe is a test that we add to a container specification.
  • Kubernetes supports three ways of implementing readiness probes:Running a command inside a container;Making an HTTP(S) request against a container; orOpening a TCP socket against a container.
  • When we roll out a new version, Kubernetes will wait for the new pod to mark itself as “ready” before moving on to the next one.
  • If there is no readiness probe, then the container is considered as ready, as long as it could be started.
  • MaxSurge indicates how many extra pods we are willing to run during a rolling update, while MaxUnavailable indicates how many pods we can lose during the rolling update.
  • Setting MaxUnavailable to 0 means, “do not shutdown any old pod before a new one is up and ready to serve traffic“.
  • Setting MaxSurge to 100% means, “immediately start all the new pods“, implying that we have enough spare capacity on our cluster, and that we want to go as fast as possible.
  • kubectl rollout undo deployment web
  • the replica set doesn’t look at the pods’ specifications, but only at their labels.
  • A replica set contains a selector, which is a logical expression that “selects” (just like a SELECT query in SQL) a number of pods.
  • it is absolutely possible to manually create pods with these labels, but running a different image (or with different settings), and fool our replica set.
  • Selectors are also used by services, which act as the load balancers for Kubernetes traffic, internal and external.
  • internal IP address (denoted by the name ClusterIP)
  • during a rollout, the deployment doesn’t reconfigure or inform the load balancer that pods are started and stopped. It happens automatically through the selector of the service associated to the load balancer.
  • a pod is added as a valid endpoint for a service only if all its containers pass their readiness check. In other words, a pod starts receiving traffic only once it’s actually ready for it.
  • In blue/green deployment, we want to instantly switch over all the traffic from the old version to the new, instead of doing it progressively
  • We can achieve blue/green deployment by creating multiple deployments (in the Kubernetes sense), and then switching from one to another by changing the selector of our service
  • kubectl label pods -l app=blue,version=v1.5 status=enabled
  • kubectl label pods -l app=blue,version=v1.4 status-

Helm | - 0 views

  • Templates generate manifest files, which are YAML-formatted resource descriptions that Kubernetes can understand.
  • service.yaml: A basic manifest for creating a service endpoint for your deployment
  • In Kubernetes, a ConfigMap is simply a container for storing configuration data.
  • ...88 more annotations...
  • deployment.yaml: A basic manifest for creating a Kubernetes deployment
  • using the suffix .yaml for YAML files and .tpl for helpers.
  • It is just fine to put a plain YAML file like this in the templates/ directory.
  • helm get manifest
  • The helm get manifest command takes a release name (full-coral) and prints out all of the Kubernetes resources that were uploaded to the server. Each file begins with --- to indicate the start of a YAML document
  • Names should be unique to a release
  • The name: field is limited to 63 characters because of limitations to the DNS system.
  • release names are limited to 53 characters
  • {{ .Release.Name }}
  • A template directive is enclosed in {{ and }} blocks.
  • The values that are passed into a template can be thought of as namespaced objects, where a dot (.) separates each namespaced element.
  • The leading dot before Release indicates that we start with the top-most namespace for this scope
  • The Release object is one of the built-in objects for Helm
  • When you want to test the template rendering, but not actually install anything, you can use helm install ./mychart --debug --dry-run
  • Using --dry-run will make it easier to test your code, but it won’t ensure that Kubernetes itself will accept the templates you generate.
  • Objects are passed into a template from the template engine.
  • create new objects within your templates
  • Objects can be simple, and have just one value. Or they can contain other objects or functions.
  • Release is one of the top-level objects that you can access in your templates.
  • Release.Namespace: The namespace to be released into (if the manifest doesn’t override)
  • Values: Values passed into the template from the values.yaml file and from user-supplied files. By default, Values is empty.
  • Chart: The contents of the Chart.yaml file.
  • Files: This provides access to all non-special files in a chart.
  • Files.Get is a function for getting a file by name
  • Files.GetBytes is a function for getting the contents of a file as an array of bytes instead of as a string. This is useful for things like images.
  • Template: Contains information about the current template that is being executed
  • BasePath: The namespaced path to the templates directory of the current chart
  • The built-in values always begin with a capital letter.
  • Go’s naming convention
  • use only initial lower case letters in order to distinguish local names from those built-in.
  • If this is a subchart, the values.yaml file of a parent chart
  • Individual parameters passed with --set
  • values.yaml is the default, which can be overridden by a parent chart’s values.yaml, which can in turn be overridden by a user-supplied values file, which can in turn be overridden by --set parameters.
  • While structuring data this way is possible, the recommendation is that you keep your values trees shallow, favoring flatness.
  • If you need to delete a key from the default values, you may override the value of the key to be null, in which case Helm will remove the key from the overridden values merge.
  • Kubernetes would then fail because you can not declare more than one livenessProbe handler.
  • When injecting strings from the .Values object into the template, we ought to quote these strings.
  • quote
  • Template functions follow the syntax functionName arg1 arg2...
  • While we talk about the “Helm template language” as if it is Helm-specific, it is actually a combination of the Go template language, some extra functions, and a variety of wrappers to expose certain objects to the templates.
  • Drawing on a concept from UNIX, pipelines are a tool for chaining together a series of template commands to compactly express a series of transformations.
  • pipelines are an efficient way of getting several things done in sequence
  • The repeat function will echo the given string the given number of times
  • default DEFAULT_VALUE GIVEN_VALUE. This function allows you to specify a default value inside of the template, in case the value is omitted.
  • all static default values should live in the values.yaml, and should not be repeated using the default command
  • Operators are implemented as functions that return a boolean value.
  • To use eq, ne, lt, gt, and, or, not etcetera place the operator at the front of the statement followed by its parameters just as you would a function.
  • if and
  • if or
  • with to specify a scope
  • range, which provides a “for each”-style loop
  • block declares a special kind of fillable template area
  • A pipeline is evaluated as false if the value is: a boolean false a numeric zero an empty string a nil (empty or null) an empty collection (map, slice, tuple, dict, array)
  • incorrect YAML because of the whitespacing
  • When the template engine runs, it removes the contents inside of {{ and }}, but it leaves the remaining whitespace exactly as is.
  • {{- (with the dash and space added) indicates that whitespace should be chomped left, while -}} means whitespace to the right should be consumed.
  • Newlines are whitespace!
  • an * at the end of the line indicates a newline character that would be removed
  • Be careful with the chomping modifiers.
  • the indent function
  • Scopes can be changed. with can allow you to set the current scope (.) to a particular object.
  • Inside of the restricted scope, you will not be able to access the other objects from the parent scope.
  • range
  • The range function will “range over” (iterate through) the pizzaToppings list.
  • Just like with sets the scope of ., so does a range operator.
  • The toppings: |- line is declaring a multi-line string.
  • not a YAML list. It’s a big string.
  • the data in ConfigMaps data is composed of key/value pairs, where both the key and the value are simple strings.
  • The |- marker in YAML takes a multi-line string.
  • range can be used to iterate over collections that have a key and a value (like a map or dict).
  • In Helm templates, a variable is a named reference to another object. It follows the form $name
  • Variables are assigned with a special assignment operator: :=
  • {{- $relname := .Release.Name -}}
  • capture both the index and the value
  • the integer index (starting from zero) to $index and the value to $topping
  • For data structures that have both a key and a value, we can use range to get both
  • Variables are normally not “global”. They are scoped to the block in which they are declared.
  • one variable that is always global - $ - this variable will always point to the root context.
  • $.
  • $.
  • Helm template language is its ability to declare multiple templates and use them together.
  • A named template (sometimes called a partial or a subtemplate) is simply a template defined inside of a file, and given a name.
  • when naming templates: template names are global.
  • If you declare two templates with the same name, whichever one is loaded last will be the one used.
  • you should be careful to name your templates with chart-specific names.
  • templates in subcharts are compiled together with top-level templates
  • naming convention is to prefix each defined template with the name of the chart: {{ define "mychart.labels" }}

Why I Will Never Use Alpine Linux Ever Again | Martin Heinz | Personal Website & Blog - 2 views

  • musl is an implementation of C standard library. It is more lightweight, faster and simpler than glibc used by other Linux distros, such as Ubuntu.
  • Some of it stems from how musl (and therefore also Alpine) handles DNS (it's always DNS), more specifically, musl (by design) doesn't support DNS-over-TCP.
  • By using Alpine, you're getting "free" chaos engineering for you cluster.
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • this DNS issue does not manifest in Docker container. It can only happen in Kubernetes, so if you test locally, everything will work fine, and you will only find out about unfixable issue when you deploy the application to a cluster.
  • if your application requires CGO_ENABLED=1, you will obviously run into issue with Alpine.
