Laymans Guide To Kubernetes

Kubernetes is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It groups server nodes together in a cluster and uses a cluster manager to distribute workloads across nodes and ensure high availability. The key components are nodes that run the applications, a master node that runs the cluster manager, and Kubernetes tools for deploying and managing applications.

Cluster Overview
Computer cluster is a set of loosely or
tightly connected Servers that work
together so that, in many respects, they
can be viewed as a single system.

each node can have its own hardware and


OS, but mostly share common specs and
are connected through LAN

activities of respective nodes are handled


by a software called “Cluster Manager”
What is a Cluster Manager?
Software that runs on one node or all of nodes, works in-conjunction
with a cluster management agent

Agent runs on each node to manage, configure services or dispatch work


(scheduler)

Features

● Automatic bin packing (workloads optimal resource usage)


● Task Scheduling
● Self-healing (ex:Node Failures - automate & fix)
● Service Discovery & Load Balancing
● Horizontal and vertical autoscaling
Cluster Manager Examples

Native Kubernetes Tooling

● Kubectl - CLI for running commands against clusters.


● MiniKube - Helps builds a Kubernetes cluster in a single host with a set of small resources
to run a small kubernetes deployment. Helm - Application Package Manager
● Kompose - Conversion tool for converting Docker Compose to container orchestrators
such as Kubernetes (or OpenShift).
● Web UI - Dashboard to deploy container applications, troubleshoot and manage the cluster
resources.
● Kubelet - internal node agent running on all the nodes of the cluster.
● Kops – kops helps you create, destroy, upgrade and maintain production-grade, highly
available, Kubernetes clusters
Ecosystem tools - Open Source/Proprietary

● Cluster Deploy - Terraform, Ansible,


CloudFormation, Google Cloud Deploy Manager
