kubernetes log

shared by 張 旭 on 27 May 21 - No Cached
  • Application logs can help you understand what is happening inside your application
  • container engines are designed to support logging.
  • The easiest and most adopted logging method for containerized applications is writing to standard output and standard error streams.
  • ...26 more annotations...
  • In a cluster, logs should have a separate storage and lifecycle independent of nodes, pods, or containers. This concept is called cluster-level logging.
  • Cluster-level logging architectures require a separate backend to store, analyze, and query logs
  • Kubernetes does not provide a native storage solution for log data.
  • use kubectl logs --previous to retrieve logs from a previous instantiation of a container.
  • A container engine handles and redirects any output generated to a containerized application's stdout and stderr streams
  • The Docker JSON logging driver treats each line as a separate message.
  • By default, if a container restarts, the kubelet keeps one terminated container with its logs.
  • An important consideration in node-level logging is implementing log rotation, so that logs don't consume all available storage on the node
  • You can also set up a container runtime to rotate an application's logs automatically.
  • The two kubelet flags container-log-max-size and container-log-max-files can be used to configure the maximum size for each log file and the maximum number of files allowed for each container respectively.
  • The kubelet and container runtime do not run in containers.
  • On machines with systemd, the kubelet and container runtime write to journald. If systemd is not present, the kubelet and container runtime write to .log files in the /var/log directory.
  • System components inside containers always write to the /var/log directory, bypassing the default logging mechanism.
  • Kubernetes does not provide a native solution for cluster-level logging
  • Use a node-level logging agent that runs on every node.
  • implement cluster-level logging by including a node-level logging agent on each node.
  • the logging agent is a container that has access to a directory with log files from all of the application containers on that node.
  • the logging agent must run on every node, it is recommended to run the agent as a DaemonSet
  • Node-level logging creates only one agent per node and doesn't require any changes to the applications running on the node.
  • Containers write stdout and stderr, but with no agreed format. A node-level agent collects these logs and forwards them for aggregation.
  • Each sidecar container prints a log to its own stdout or stderr stream.
  • It is not recommended to write log entries with different formats to the same log stream
  • writing logs to a file and then streaming them to stdout can double disk usage.
  • If you have an application that writes to a single file, it's recommended to set /dev/stdout as the destination
  • it's recommended to use stdout and stderr directly and leave rotation and retention policies to the kubelet.
  • Using a logging agent in a sidecar container can lead to significant resource consumption. Moreover, you won't be able to access those logs using kubectl logs because they are not controlled by the kubelet.

helm kubernetes chart development devops package

shared by 張 旭 on 05 Aug 19 - No Cached
  • 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/

mqtt server queue message system

shared by 張 旭 on 15 Feb 17 - No Cached
  • MQTT is a lightweight publish/subscribe messaging protocol. It is useful for use with low power sensors
  • The MQTT protocol is based on the principle of publishing messages and subscribing to topics, or "pub/sub".
  • Multiple clients connect to a broker and subscribe to topics that they are interested in
  • ...22 more annotations...
  • Many clients may subscribe to the same topics
  • The broker and MQTT act as a simple, common interface for everything to connect to
  • Messages in MQTT are published on topics
  • no need to configure a topic, publishing on it is enough
  • Topics are treated as a hierarchy, using a slash (/) as a separator.
  • Clients can receive messages by creating subscriptions
  • A subscription may be to an explicit topic
  • Two wildcards are available, + or #.
  • # can be used as a wildcard for all remaining levels of hierarchy
  • + can be used as a wildcard for a single level of hierarchy
  • Zero length topic levels are valid, which can lead to some slightly non-obvious behaviour.
  • The QoS defines how hard the broker/client will try to ensure that a message is received.
  • Messages may be sent at any QoS level, and clients may attempt to subscribe to topics at any QoS level
  • the client chooses the maximum QoS it will receive
  • if a client is subscribed with QoS 2 and a message is published on QoS 0, the client will receive it on QoS 0.
  • 1: The broker/client will deliver the message at least once, with confirmation required.
  • All messages may be set to be retained.
  • the broker will keep the message even after sending it to all current subscribers
  • useful as a "last known good" mechanism
  • If clean session is set to false, then the connection is treated as durable
  • when the client disconnects, any subscriptions it has will remain and any subsequent QoS 1 or 2 messages will be stored until it connects again in the future
  • If clean session is true, then all subscriptions will be removed for the client when it disconnects

shared by 張 旭 on 28 Jun 21 - No Cached
  • Docker isn’t the only container contender on the block.
  • Container Runtime Interface (CRI), which defines an API between Kubernetes and the container runtime
  • Open Container Initiative (OCI) which publishes specifications for images and containers.
  • ...20 more annotations...
  • for a lot of people, the name “Docker” itself is synonymous with the word “container”.
  • Docker created a very ergonomic (nice-to-use) tool for working with containers – also called docker.
  • docker is designed to be installed on a workstation or server and comes with a bunch of tools to make it easy to build and run containers as a developer, or DevOps person.
  • containerd: This is a daemon process that manages and runs containers.
  • runc: This is the low-level container runtime (the thing that actually creates and runs containers).
  • libcontainer, a native Go-based implementation for creating containers.
  • Kubernetes includes a component called dockershim, which allows it to support Docker.
  • Kubernetes prefers to run containers through any container runtime which supports its Container Runtime Interface (CRI).
  • Kubernetes will remove support for Docker directly, and prefer to use only container runtimes that implement its Container Runtime Interface.
  • Both containerd and CRI-O can run Docker-formatted (actually OCI-formatted) images, they just do it without having to use the docker command or the Docker daemon.
  • Docker images, are actually images packaged in the Open Container Initiative (OCI) format.
  • CRI is the API that Kubernetes uses to control the different runtimes that create and manage containers.
  • CRI makes it easier for Kubernetes to use different container runtimes
  • containerd is a high-level container runtime that came from Docker, and implements the CRI spec
  • containerd was separated out of the Docker project, to make Docker more modular.
  • CRI-O is another high-level container runtime which implements the Container Runtime Interface (CRI).
  • The idea behind the OCI is that you can choose between different runtimes which conform to the spec.
  • runc is an OCI-compatible container runtime.
  • A reference implementation is a piece of software that has implemented all the requirements of a specification or standard.
  • runc provides all of the low-level functionality for containers, interacting with existing low-level Linux features, like namespaces and control groups.

  • 'docker rm' removes the read-write layer that defines a container from your host system
  • It effectively deletes files
  • 'docker rmi' removes the read-layer that defines a "union view" of an image.
  • 'docker commit' takes a container's top-level read-write layer and burns it into a read-only layer.
  • turns a container (whether running or stopped) into an immutable image
  • uses the FROM directive in the Dockerfile file as the starting image and iteratively 1) runs (create and start) 2) modifies and 3) commits.

shared by 張 旭 on 15 Jun 21 - No Cached
  • In both the required_version and required_providers settings, each override constraint entirely replaces the constraints for the same component in the original block.
  • If both the base block and the override block both set required_version then the constraints in the base block are entirely ignored.
  • Terraform normally loads all of the .tf and .tf.json files within a directory and expects each one to define a distinct set of configuration objects.
  • ...14 more annotations...
  • If two files attempt to define the same object, Terraform returns an error.
  • a human-edited configuration file in the Terraform language native syntax could be partially overridden using a programmatically-generated file in JSON syntax.
  • Terraform has special handling of any configuration file whose name ends in _override.tf or _override.tf.json
  • Terraform initially skips these override files when loading configuration, and then afterwards processes each one in turn (in lexicographical order).
  • merges the override block contents into the existing object.
  • Over-use of override files hurts readability, since a reader looking only at the original files cannot easily see that some portions of those files have been overridden without consulting all of the override files that are present.
  • When using override files, use comments in the original files to warn future readers about which override files apply changes to each block.
  • A top-level block in an override file merges with a block in a normal configuration file that has the same block header.
  • Within a top-level block, an attribute argument within an override block replaces any argument of the same name in the original block.
  • Within a top-level block, any nested blocks within an override block replace all blocks of the same type in the original block.
  • The contents of nested configuration blocks are not merged.
  • If more than one override file defines the same top-level block, the overriding effect is compounded, with later blocks taking precedence over earlier blocks
  • The settings within terraform blocks are considered individually when merging.
  • If the required_providers argument is set, its value is merged on an element-by-element basis, which allows an override block to adjust the constraint for a single provider without affecting the constraints for other providers.

  • combined with other techniques, client-side validation can be a convenient way to provide users with immediate feedback
  • it's a good idea to keep your controllers skinny
  • model-level validations are the most appropriate in most circumstances.
  • Active Record uses the new_record? instance method to determine whether an object is already in the database or not.
  • Creating and saving a new record will send an SQL INSERT operation to the database. Updating an existing record will send an SQL UPDATE operation instead. Validations are typically run before these commands are sent to the database
  • The bang versions (e.g. save!) raise an exception if the record is invalid.
  • save and update return false
  • create just returns the object
  • skip validations, and will save the object to the database regardless of its validity.
  • be used with caution
  • update_all
  • save also has the ability to skip validations if passed validate: false as argument.
  • save(validate: false)
  • valid? triggers your validations and returns true if no errors
  • After Active Record has performed validations, any errors found can be accessed through the errors.messages instance method
  • By definition, an object is valid if this collection is empty after running validations.
  • validations are not run when using new.
  • invalid? is simply the inverse of valid?.
  • To verify whether or not a particular attribute of an object is valid, you can use errors[:attribute]. I
  • only useful after validations have been run
  • Every time a validation fails, an error message is added to the object's errors collection,
  • All of them accept the :on and :message options, which define when the validation should be run and what message should be added to the errors collection if it fails, respectively.
  • validates that a checkbox on the user interface was checked when a form was submitted.
  • agree to your application's terms of service
  • 'acceptance' does not need to be recorded anywhere in your database (if you don't have a field for it, the helper will just create a virtual attribute).
  • It defaults to "1" and can be easily changed.
  • use this helper when your model has associations with other models and they also need to be validated
  • valid? will be called upon each one of the associated objects.
  • work with all of the association types
  • Don't use validates_associated on both ends of your associations.

  • when you have two text fields that should receive exactly the same content
  • This validation creates a virtual attribute whose name is the name of the field that has to be confirmed with "_confirmation" appended.
  • To require confirmation, make sure to add a presence check for the confirmation attribute
  • this set can be any enumerable object.
  • The exclusion helper has an option :in that receives the set of values that will not be accepted for the validated attributes.
  • :in option has an alias called :within
  • validates the attributes' values by testing whether they match a given regular expression, which is specified using the :with option.

  • validates that the attribute's value is unique right before the object gets saved
  • a :scope option that you can use to specify other attributes that are used to limit the uniqueness check
  • a :case_sensitive option that you can use to define whether the uniqueness constraint will be case sensitive or not.
  • There is no default error message for validates_with.
  • To implement the validate method, you must have a record parameter defined, which is the record to be validated.
  • the validator will be initialized only once for the whole application life cycle, and not on each validation run, so be careful about using instance variables inside it.
  • passes the record to a separate class for validation
  • use a plain old Ruby object
  • validates attributes against a block
  • The block receives the record, the attribute's name and the attribute's value. You can do anything you like to check for valid data within the block
  • will let validation pass if the attribute's value is blank?, like nil or an empty string

shared by 張 旭 on 05 Dec 17 - No Cached
  • discussing the basic structure of an Nginx configuration file along with some guidelines on how to design your files
  • /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
  • In Nginx parlance, the areas that these brackets define are called "contexts" because they contain configuration details that are separated according to their area of concern
  • ...50 more annotations...
  • contexts can be layered within one another
  • if a directive is valid in multiple nested scopes, a declaration in a broader context will be passed on to any child contexts as default values.
  • The children contexts can override these values at will
  • Nginx will error out on reading a configuration file with directives that are declared in the wrong context.
  • The most general context is the "main" or "global" context
  • Any directive that exist entirely outside of these blocks is said to inhabit the "main" context
  • The main context represents the broadest environment for Nginx configuration.
  • The "events" context is contained within the "main" context. It is used to set global options that affect how Nginx handles connections at a general level.
  • Nginx uses an event-based connection processing model, so the directives defined within this context determine how worker processes should handle connections.
  • the connection processing method is automatically selected based on the most efficient choice that the platform has available
  • a worker will only take a single connection at a time
  • When configuring Nginx as a web server or reverse proxy, the "http" context will hold the majority of the configuration.
  • The http context is a sibling of the events context, so they should be listed side-by-side, rather than nested
  • fine-tune the TCP keep alive settings (keepalive_disable, keepalive_requests, and keepalive_timeout)
  • The "server" context is declared within the "http" context.
  • multiple declarations
  • each instance defines a specific virtual server to handle client requests
  • Each client request will be handled according to the configuration defined in a single server context, so Nginx must decide which server context is most appropriate based on details of the request.
  • listen: The ip address / port combination that this server block is designed to respond to.
  • server_name: This directive is the other component used to select a server block for processing.
  • "Host" header
  • configure files to try to respond to requests (try_files)
  • issue redirects and rewrites (return and rewrite)
  • set arbitrary variables (set)
  • Location contexts share many relational qualities with server contexts
  • multiple location contexts can be defined, each location is used to handle a certain type of client request, and each location is selected by virtue of matching the location definition against the client request through a selection algorithm
  • Location blocks live within server contexts and, unlike server blocks, can be nested inside one another.
  • While server contexts are selected based on the requested IP address/port combination and the host name in the "Host" header, location blocks further divide up the request handling within a server block by looking at the request URI
  • The request URI is the portion of the request that comes after the domain name or IP address/port combination.
  • New directives at this level allow you to reach locations outside of the document root (alias), mark the location as only internally accessible (internal), and proxy to other servers or locations (using http, fastcgi, scgi, and uwsgi proxying).
  • These can then be used to do A/B testing by providing different content to different hosts.
  • configures Perl handlers for the location they appear in
  • set the value of a variable depending on the value of another variable
  • used to map MIME types to the file extensions that should be associated with them.
  • this context defines a named pool of servers that Nginx can then proxy requests to
  • The upstream context should be placed within the http context, outside of any specific server contexts.
  • The upstream context can then be referenced by name within server or location blocks to pass requests of a certain type to the pool of servers that have been defined.
  • function as a high performance mail proxy server
  • The mail context is defined within the "main" or "global" context (outside of the http context).
  • Nginx has the ability to redirect authentication requests to an external authentication server
  • the if directive in Nginx will execute the instructions contained if a given test returns "true".
  • Since Nginx will test conditions of a request with many other purpose-made directives, if should not be used for most forms of conditional execution.
  • The limit_except context is used to restrict the use of certain HTTP methods within a location context.
  • The result of the above example is that any client can use the GET and HEAD verbs, but only clients coming from the 192.168.1.1/24 subnet are allowed to use other methods.
  • Many directives are valid in more than one context
  • it is usually best to declare directives in the highest context to which they are applicable, and overriding them in lower contexts as necessary.
  • Declaring at higher levels provides you with a sane default
  • Nginx already engages in a well-documented selection algorithm for things like selecting server blocks and location blocks.
  • instead of relying on rewrites to get a user supplied request into the format that you would like to work with, you should try to set up two blocks for the request, one of which represents the desired method, and the other that catches messy requests and redirects (and possibly rewrites) them to your correct block.
  • incorrect requests can get by with a redirect rather than a rewrite, which should execute with lower overhead.

  • Journaling guarantees that MongoDB can quickly recover write operations that were written to the journal but not written to data files in cases where mongod terminated due to a crash or other serious failure.
  • To use read concern level of "majority", replica sets must use WiredTiger storage engine.
  • Write concern describes the level of acknowledgement requested from MongoDB for write operations.
  • With stronger write concerns, clients must wait after sending a write operation until MongoDB confirms the write operation at the requested write concern level.
  • By default, authorization is not enabled, and mongod assumes a trusted environment
  • The HTTP interface is disabled by default. Do not enable the HTTP interface in production environments.
  • Avoid overloading the connection resources of a mongod or mongos instance by adjusting the connection pool size to suit your use case.

  • 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.

    Keepalived is a routing software written in C. The main goal of this project is to provide simple and robust facilities for loadbalancing and high-availability to Linux system and Linux based infrastructures. Loadbalancing framework relies on well-known and widely used Linux Virtual Server (IPVS) kernel module providing Layer4 loadbalancing. Keepalived implements a set of checkers to dynamically and adaptively maintain and manage loadbalanced server pool according their health. On the other hand high-availability is achieved by VRRP protocol. VRRP is a fundamental brick for router failover. In addition, Keepalived implements a set of hooks to the VRRP finite state machine providing low-level and high-speed protocol interactions. Keepalived frameworks can be used independently or all together to provide resilient infrastructures.

  • the default behavior is to evaluate to an empty string if printed or iterated over, and to fail for every other operation.
  • if an object has an item and attribute with the same name. Additionally, the attr() filter only looks up attributes.
  • Variables can be modified by filters. Filters are separated from the variable by a pipe symbol (|) and may have optional arguments in parentheses.
  • Multiple filters can be chained
  • Tests can be used to test a variable against a common expression.
  • add is plus the name of the test after the variable.
  • to find out if a variable is defined, you can do name is defined, which will then return true or false depending on whether name is defined in the current template context.
