Kubernetes: What's It Do?: Presenter Eric Paris Red Hat

This document provides an overview of Kubernetes presented by Eric Paris. It begins with defining Kubernetes as a declarative language for launching and managing containers across a cluster of machines. It then outlines Kubernetes primitives like pods, replication controllers, services, labels and namespaces. The presentation describes the master and node roles, and how networking is configured. It concludes with noting differences in configuration since the last talk and a demo of creating a multi-tier application on Kubernetes.

Kubernetes: What's it do?

Presenter
Eric Paris
Red Hat
Agenda

● What is Kubernetes
● Kubernetes Primitives
● Configuration and Cluster Setup Pointers
● Demo – using kube

2 Eric Paris
What is Kubernetes?

● A declarative language for launching containers.

3 Eric Paris
What is Kubernetes?
● A highly collaborative open source project originally
conceived by Google
● Google has 10+ years experience w/ containerized apps
● Red Hat has been a member since day 0.
● Red Hat is the second largest contributing member with
many ideas coming from geard
● Sometimes called:
● kube
● k8s (that's 'k' + 8 letters + 's')
● Start, stop, update, and manage a cluster of machines
running containers in a consistent and maintainable
way.
4 Eric Paris
What is Kubernetes?

● Particularly suited for horizontally scaleable, stateless,


or 'microservices' application architectures.
● Does not mean others will not work or are ignored
● Additional functionality to make containers easier to
use in a cluster (reachability and discovery).
● Kubernetes does NOT and will not expose all of the
'features' of the docker command line.

5 Eric Paris
Kubernetes Primitives and Key Words

● Master
● Minion/Node
● Pod
● Replication Controller
● Service
● Label
● Namespace

6 Eric Paris
Master

● Typically consists of:


● kube-apiserver
● kube-scheduler
● kube-controller-manager
● etcd
● Might contain:
● kube-proxy
● a network management utility

7 Eric Paris
Minion - Node

● Typically consists of:


● kubelet
● kube-proxy
● cAdvisor
● Might contain:
● a network management utility
● May be referred to by either name.

8 Eric Paris
Systems and Binaries

9 Eric Paris
Pod

● Single schedulable unit of work


● Can not move between machines
● Can not span machines
● One or more containers
● Shared network namespace
● Metadata about the container(s)
● Env vars – configuration for the container
● Every pod gets an unique IP
● Assigned by the container engine, not kube!

10 Eric Paris
Pod

11 Eric Paris
Replication Controller

● Consists of
● Pod template
● Count
● Label Selector
● Kube will try to keep $count copies of pods matching
the label selector running
● If too few copies are running the replication controller
will start a new pod somewhere in the cluster

12 Eric Paris
Replication Controller

13 Eric Paris
Services

● How 'stuff' finds pods which could be anywhere


● Define:
● What port in the container
● Labels on pods which should respond to this type of
request
● Can define:
● What the 'internal' IP should be
● What the 'external' IP should be
● What port the service should listen on

14 Eric Paris
Services

15 Eric Paris
Labels

● List of key=value pairs


● Attached to all objects
● Currently used in 2 main places
● Matching pods to replication controllers
● Matching pods to services
● Objects can be queried from the API server by label

16 Eric Paris
Services and Labels

17 Eric Paris
Namespace

● Attached to every object


● Pods in ns1 will not get service variable from ns2
● Users with permission to CRUD objects in ns1 may not
have permissions to CRUS object in ns2
● The network is not segregated!

18 Eric Paris
Configuration differences since last talk
● Configuration Changes:
● Systemd and /etc/kubernetes/ file formatting
● Kubelet takes: –api_servers=
● Controller-manager takes –machines=

19 Eric Paris
Networking Setup – In Fedora
● Networking is a docker problem – not kube
● Kube makes those problems apparent!
● If any two docker containers on any two hosts can talk
over IP, kube will just work.

20 Eric Paris
Networking Docker Out Of The Box

21 Eric Paris
Networking Setup – Available in Fedora
● Flannel
● Super super easy configuration
● Can create a vxlan overlay network
● Can configure docker to launch pods in this overlay
● Pods just work!
● There are many other solutions.
● This one is easy.

22 Eric Paris
Networking with an overlay network

23 Eric Paris
Demo
● Create a multi tier web application
● Show that it works
● Update the web front end with 0 downtime

● How I'm cheating in the demo


● Cluster is already set up.
● Containers already created
● Containers already pulled (docker pull is slow)
● services and replication controllers already written
