Kubernetes is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts. It provides basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications.

Container evolution

It's important to note right up front, before you dive into Kubernetes, that minikube is the tool for local Kubernetes. minikube quickly sets up a local Kubernetes cluster on macOS, Linux, and Windows. We proudly focus on helping application developers and new Kubernetes users.

Kubernetes Components[edit | edit source]

When you deploy Kubernetes, you get a cluster. The cluster is composed of many components. Here are brief details on some of them.

Kubernetes Components


Kube-apiserver[edit | edit source]

The API server is the front end for the Kubernetes control plane.

The main implementation of a Kubernetes API server is kube-apiserver. 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.

etcd[edit | edit source]

Consistent and highly-available key value store. Used for backing store for all cluster data. https://etcd.io/docs/ Play with etcd. github: https://github.com/etcd-io/etcdlabs Sizing etcdctl (command line client)

Kube-scheduler[edit | edit source]

Control plane component that 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.

Kube-controller-manager[edit | edit source]

Control Plane component that runs controller processes; including Node controller, Replication controller, Endpoints controller, Service Account and Token controllers.

Cloud-controller-manager[edit | edit source]

A Kubernetes control plane component that embeds cloud-specific control logic. 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 just interact with your cluster.

Node Components[edit | edit source]

Node components run on every node, maintaining running pods and providing the Kubernetes runtime environment.

Kubelet[edit | edit source]

An agent that runs on each node in the cluster. It makes sure that containers are running in a Pod .

Kube-proxy[edit | edit source]

kube-proxy is a network proxy that runs on each node in your cluster, implementing part of the Kubernetes Service concept.

Container runtime[edit | edit source]

The container runtime is the software that is responsible for running containers. Docker by default, it can also be CRI-O or possibly other implementations of the Container Runtime Interface.

Addons[edit | edit source]

You probably need at least the DNS and Web UI addons.

Tools[edit | edit source]

Kubectl[edit | edit source]

The kubectl command line tool lets you control Kubernetes clusters.

Kubeadm[edit | edit source]

Kubeadm is a component of Kubernetes.

Kubeadm is a tool built to provide best-practice "fast paths" for creating Kubernetes clusters. It performs the actions necessary to get a minimum viable, secure cluster up and running in a user friendly way. Kubeadm's scope is limited to the local node filesystem and the Kubernetes API, and it is intended to be a composable building block of higher level tools.
