Copy only the certificates in the above list. kubeadm will take care of generating the rest of the certificates with the required SANs for the joining control-plane instances.

Pod-to-Service communications

External-to-Service communications

sharing machines requires ensuring that two applications do not try to use the same ports.

Dynamic port allocation brings a lot of complications to the system

do not need to explicitly create links between Pods

almost never need to deal with mapping container ports to host ports.

pods on a node can communicate with all pods on all nodes without NAT

agents on a node (e.g. system daemons, kubelet) can communicate with all pods on that node

pods in the host network of a node can communicate with all pods on all nodes without NAT

containers within a Pod share their network namespaces - including their IP address

containers within a Pod must coordinate port usage

“IP-per-pod” model.

request ports on the Node itself which forward to your Pod (called host ports), but this is a very niche operation

The Pod itself is blind to the existence or non-existence of host ports.

AOS is an Intent-Based Networking system that creates and manages complex datacenter environments from a simple integrated platform.

Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure offers an integrated overlay and underlay SDN solution that supports containers, virtual machines, and bare metal servers.

AOS Reference Design currently supports Layer-3 connected hosts that eliminate legacy Layer-2 switching problems.

The AWS VPC CNI offers integrated AWS Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networking for Kubernetes clusters.

users can apply existing AWS VPC networking and security best practices for building Kubernetes clusters.

Using this CNI plugin allows Kubernetes pods to have the same IP address inside the pod as they do on the VPC network.

The CNI allocates AWS Elastic Networking Interfaces (ENIs) to each Kubernetes node and using the secondary IP range from each ENI for pods on the node.

Big Cloud Fabric is a cloud native networking architecture, designed to run Kubernetes in private cloud/on-premises environments.

Cilium is L7/HTTP aware and can enforce network policies on L3-L7 using an identity based security model that is decoupled from network addressing.

CNI-Genie is a CNI plugin that enables Kubernetes to simultaneously have access to different implementations of the Kubernetes network model in runtime.

CNI-Genie also supports assigning multiple IP addresses to a pod, each from a different CNI plugin.

cni-ipvlan-vpc-k8s contains a set of CNI and IPAM plugins to provide a simple, host-local, low latency, high throughput, and compliant networking stack for Kubernetes within Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) environments by making use of Amazon Elastic Network Interfaces (ENI) and binding AWS-managed IPs into Pods using the Linux kernel’s IPvlan driver in L2 mode.

to be straightforward to configure and deploy within a VPC

Contiv provides configurable networking

Contrail, based on Tungsten Fabric, is a truly open, multi-cloud network virtualization and policy management platform.

DANM is a networking solution for telco workloads running in a Kubernetes cluster.

Flannel is a very simple overlay network that satisfies the Kubernetes requirements.

Any traffic bound for that subnet will be routed directly to the VM by the GCE network fabric.

sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=1

Jaguar provides overlay network using vxlan and Jaguar CNIPlugin provides one IP address per pod.

Knitter is a network solution which supports multiple networking in Kubernetes.

Kube-OVN is an OVN-based kubernetes network fabric for enterprises.

Kube-router provides a Linux LVS/IPVS-based service proxy, a Linux kernel forwarding-based pod-to-pod networking solution with no overlays, and iptables/ipset-based network policy enforcer.

If you have a “dumb” L2 network, such as a simple switch in a “bare-metal” environment, you should be able to do something similar to the above GCE setup.

Multus is a Multi CNI plugin to support the Multi Networking feature in Kubernetes using CRD based network objects in Kubernetes.

NSX-T can provide network virtualization for a multi-cloud and multi-hypervisor environment and is focused on emerging application frameworks and architectures that have heterogeneous endpoints and technology stacks.

NSX-T Container Plug-in (NCP) provides integration between NSX-T and container orchestrators such as Kubernetes

Nuage uses the open source Open vSwitch for the data plane along with a feature rich SDN Controller built on open standards.

OpenVSwitch is a somewhat more mature but also complicated way to build an overlay network

OVN is an opensource network virtualization solution developed by the Open vSwitch community.

Project Calico is an open source container networking provider and network policy engine.

Calico provides a highly scalable networking and network policy solution for connecting Kubernetes pods based on the same IP networking principles as the internet

Calico can be deployed without encapsulation or overlays to provide high-performance, high-scale data center networking.

Romana is an open source network and security automation solution that lets you deploy Kubernetes without an overlay network

Weave Net runs as a CNI plug-in or stand-alone. In either version, it doesn’t require any configuration or extra code to run, and in both cases, the network provides one IP address per pod - as is standard for Kubernetes.

The network model is implemented by the container runtime on each node.

In-use IP addresses

run one or two control plane instances per failure zone, scaling those instances vertically first and then scaling horizontally after reaching the point of falling returns to (vertical) scale.

Kubernetes nodes do not automatically steer traffic towards control-plane endpoints that are in the same failure zone

store Event objects in a separate dedicated etcd instance.

Kubernetes resource limits help to minimize the impact of memory leaks and other ways that pods and containers can impact on other components.

Addons' default limits are typically based on data collected from experience running each addon on small or medium Kubernetes clusters.

Many addons scale horizontally - you add capacity by running more pods

The VerticalPodAutoscaler can run in recommender mode to provide suggested figures for requests and limits.

Some addons run as one copy per node, controlled by a DaemonSet: for example, a node-level log aggregator.

VerticalPodAutoscaler is a custom resource that you can deploy into your cluster to help you manage resource requests and limits for pods.

The cluster autoscaler integrates with a number of cloud providers to help you run the right number of nodes for the level of resource demand in your cluster.

The addon resizer helps you in resizing the addons automatically as your cluster's scale changes.
