Readme

This repository contains resources for hands-on exercises and demonstrations for various Kubernetes-related tools.

If you want some practical tasks to get your hands dirty with Kubernetes, head on to the tasks folder.

If you need a local Kubernetes cluster to play with, install kind and then use the commands below to create a cluster that works with NetworkPolicies and PodSecurityPolicies.

KIND setup with Cilium for NetworkPolicies and PodSecurityPolicies enforced:

kind create cluster --config kind/NP-PSP-config.yaml
# Add PSPs and RBAC
kubectl create -f manifests/PSP/
# Set up Cilium
kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cilium/cilium/v1.6/install/kubernetes/quick-install.yaml

The commands above creates a cluster with

  • Cilium as network plugin to enforce NetworkPolicies
  • the PodSecurityPolicy admission plugin enabled to enforce PodSecurityPolicies
  • two basic PodSecurityPolicies (permissive and restrictive) along with some RBAC that
    1. allow service accounts in kube-system to run privileged Pods using the permissive PSP
    2. allow all service accounts to use the restrictive PSP

Some handy snippets

Minikube setup with Cilium for NetworkPolicies:

minikube start --network-plugin=cni
minikube ssh -- sudo mount bpffs -t bpf /sys/fs/bpf
kubectl create -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cilium/cilium/v1.6/install/kubernetes/quick-install.yaml

KIND setup with ingress

kind create cluster --config kind/config.yaml
# Install ingress controller
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/master/deploy/static/provider/kind/deploy.yaml

Helm and Tiller setup

Initialize helm with certificates:

./scripts/initialize-cluster.sh certs
source scripts/helm-env.sh certs/kube-system/certs
helm version

Initialize helm without certificates:

# Cluster wide tiller
kubectl -n kube-system create sa tiller
kubectl create clusterrolebinding tiller --clusterrole=cluster-admin --serviceaccount=kube-system:tiller
# Insecure tiller, just for demo
helm init --service-account=tiller --history-max 200
# Wait for tiller to start
kubectl rollout status deployment tiller-deploy -n kube-system

Test applications

Deploy test app:

kubectl create ns app-frontend
kubectl create ns app-backend
kubectl create ns app-database

helm upgrade --install k8s-front charts/test-app-frontend-chart \
  -f values/k8s-test-app-front.yaml
helm upgrade --install k8s-back charts/test-app-backend-chart \
  -f values/k8s-test-app-backend.yaml
helm upgrade --install k8s-database charts/test-app-database-chart \
  -f values/k8s-test-app-database.yaml

Blue-green:

helm upgrade --install blue-green charts/blue-green --namespace blue-green -f values/blue-green-v1.yaml

helm upgrade --install blue-green charts/blue-green --namespace blue-green --set replicaCount=3 -f values/blue-green-v1.yaml

Prometheus-operator

Deploy prometheus-operator

kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/prometheus-operator/master/example/prometheus-operator-crd/alertmanager.crd.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/prometheus-operator/master/example/prometheus-operator-crd/prometheus.crd.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/prometheus-operator/master/example/prometheus-operator-crd/prometheusrule.crd.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/prometheus-operator/master/example/prometheus-operator-crd/servicemonitor.crd.yaml
kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coreos/prometheus-operator/master/example/prometheus-operator-crd/podmonitor.crd.yaml

helm upgrade --install prom-operator stable/prometheus-operator \
    --set alertmanager.config.global.slack_api_url=$(pass Udda/slack-demo-hook) \
    -f values/prometheus-operator.yaml \
    --namespace monitoring --version 6.11.0 --atomic

Kube-backup

Prereq: Set up a git repository and create a ssh-key (use ssh-keygen) with write access to it. You also need to create a known_hosts file (e.g. ssh-keyscan gitlab.com > known_hosts).

Deploy kube-backup:

# Storage class
kubectl apply -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: storage.k8s.io/v1
kind: StorageClass
metadata:
  name: default
  annotations:
    storageclass.kubernetes.io/is-default-class: "true"
provisioner: kubernetes.io/aws-ebs
EOF

# Secret used by kube-backup
kubectl create secret generic kube-backup-ssh -n kube-system --from-file=id_rsa=.ssh/id_rsa --from-file=known_hosts=.ssh/known_hosts
# Deploy kube-backup
kubectl apply -f manifests/backup
