EKS Overview

Kubernetes is a platform for managing containerized workloads and services that provides features like service discovery, load balancing, storage orchestration, automated rollouts and rollbacks, scheduling, self-healing, and secret and configuration management. It uses components like kubectl, pods, replication controllers, replica sets, daemon sets, jobs, services, ingress, config maps, secrets, and persistent volumes to provide these capabilities.

Need for Kubernetes

Services Provided by Kubernetes

Platform for managing containerized workloads and services that facilitates


declarative configuration and automation.

Service discovery and load balancing

Storage orchestration
Automated rollouts and rollbacks
Optimized scheduling
Self-healing
Secret and configuration management
Components of a cluster
Kubectl
Kubernetes Core Objects - Pods
Managed Pods

Liveness Probes: HTTP GET, TCP socket, Exec (arbitrary command inside container)

ReplicationController - a kube resource that ensures pods are always kept running.

Matches pod by a label selector, can scale up or down

ReplicaSet - newer version of ReplicationController with more expressive labelSelectors


in,notIn, exists, doesNotExist

DeamonSet - one pod per node. Useful for system level ops like log controller, resource mon

Job - After a process completes, it is not restarted again. If it fails it can be setup to either
restart or not.
Services - Enable clients to talk to pods

Service provides a single constant point of entry to a group of pods providing same service.
Use labelSelectors to pick pods

Connect to external service by creating an endpoint manually or by using FQDN

Expose service as

NodePort - open a port on the node and redirects traffic from that node to service.

LoadBalancer -Dedicated loadBalancer provisioned from cloud for each service

Ingress - Multiple services through one IP address, operates at HTTP level. One load balancer
for all services. Uses host and path to redirect. Can terminate TLS
NodePort service
LoadBalancer
Ingress
Config Maps

ConfigMap : a map of key value pair with values ranging from strings to full config files

kubectl create configmap my-config --from-file=foo.json --from-file=bar=foobar.conf


--from-file=config-opts/ --from-literal=some=thing

Can use as env var, argument or a volume


Secrets

Key value pair maps like configMaps

Only distributed to nodes that need them

Stored in tmpfs never in memory

On master secrets are stored encrypted from 1.7


Storing & Sharing data

Each container will have its own filesystem.

Volume: allows you to preserve data between restarts and share with different containers

It is not an object so cannot be created or deleted. It needs to be mounted.

VolumeTypes:

emptyDir, hostPath, gitRepo, nfs, gcePersistentDisk, awsElasticBlockStore,

configMap, secret, downwardAPI

PersistentVolume & PersistentVolumeClaims : Pre provisioned volumes


PersistentVolumeClaim

PersistentVolumeProvisioner will provision the persistentVolume automatically when a


persistentVolumeClaim is posted.
