Transcript

1. Kubernetes
 The Typhoon Way André Veelken - DevOps Engineer 07.06.2018
2. About me - DevOps engineer @ dreamIT - main focus: Kubernetes, clouds - https://twitter.com/andreveelken - spoke about CoreOS matchbox and k8s on bare metal at last Meetup
3. Topics - Kubernetes distributions vs. vanilla - Typhoon - Terraform - bootkube - building a cluster live
 on AWS
5. „You’re not running vanilla k8s“ - vanilla k8s (marketing term) promising neutrality and protection from vendor lock-in - to run k8s you have to adapt upstream - form communities instead of baking your own k8s distribution!
6. Kubernetes distributions - added value, e.g. updates - differences: networking, storage, loadbalancing, API server flags,… - https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/ pick-right-solution/ - risk of vendor lock in
9. Cloud Native 
 Landscape
10. Typhoon - free, minimal and community driven - declarative infrastructure via Terraform - set up, change, destroy - everything wrapped in Terraform modules - uses bootkube under the hood (terraform-render-bootkube) - similarities to CoreOS Tectonic
11. Typhoon - targets GCE, DigitalOcean, AWS and bare metal! - easy to modify in comparison with
 other distributions
12. Bootkube - kubernetes incubator project - creates a temporary control plane and bootstraps a self-hosted k8s cluster - uses hyperkube images (multi purpose containter with all k8s components)
13. - makes „infrastructure as code“ possible - unified workflow - abstraction: provider and resources - talk to local and remote APIs in a consistent manner - % terraform init | apply | destroy
14. Building a Typhoon cluster on AWS - single master, two nodes - calico networking - OS: ContainerLinux - nginx ingress deployment - simple example app
