Orchestration is the automated arrangement, coordination, and management of computer systems, middleware, and services. |
Orchestration is the automated arrangement, coordination, and management of computer systems, middleware, and services.
At the end of this module, you will :
- Learn what a Kubernetes cluster is
- Learn how to manage it in command line
- Learn how to manage basic resources on a Kubernetes cluster
Create these directories data/votingapp and data/orchestration in your home folder to manage the YAML file needed in this module.
mkdir -p ~/data/votingapp ~/data/orchestrationThe Kubernetes command-line tool, kubectl, is used to deploy and manage applications on Kubernetes. Using kubectl, you can inspect cluster resources, create, delete, and update components, look at your new cluster and bring up apps.
You must use a kubectl version that is within one minor version difference of your cluster. For example, a v1.17 client should work with v1.16, v1.17, and v1.18 master. Using the latest version of kubectl helps avoid unforeseen issues.
There are a few methods to install kubectl, here are the basics depending on the operating system :
{% tabs %} {% tab title="Debian / Ubuntu" %}
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y apt-transport-https
curl -s https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb https://apt.kubernetes.io/ kubernetes-xenial main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubernetes.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y kubectl{% endtab %}

yum install -y kubectl
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="MacOS" %}
brew install kubernetes-cli# Download the binary
curl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/$(curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/stable.txt)/bin/darwin/amd64/kubectl
# Manage the execution right to the binary
chmod +x ./kubectl
# Move the binary to the PATH
sudo mv ./kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Windows" %}
Execute the installation commands (specify the DownloadLocation)
Install-Script -Name install-kubectl -Scope CurrentUser -Force
install-kubectl.ps1 [-DownloadLocation <path>]The installation program creates $HOME/.kube which is followed by the creation of a configuration file. Replace the configuration file with your own.
choco install kubernetes-clicurl -LO https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/v1.17.0/bin/windows/amd64/kubectl.exeAdd the EXE binary to the PATH.
Access your personal directory:
cd %USERPROFILE%Create the .kube directory:
mkdir .kubeGo to the .kube directory you just created:
cd .kubeCopy the kubeconfig file into this directory and name it config.
Test to make sure the version you have installed is up to date:
kubectl version{% endtab %} {% endtabs %}
For further information about Kubectl installation method, please refer to the Kubernetes documentation.
In order for kubectl to find and access a Kubernetes cluster, it needs a kubeconfig file, which is created automatically when you create a cluster or successfully deploy a Minikube cluster. By default, kubectl configuration is located at ~/.kube/config.
Generally the command line format can be divide in three parts :
- The kubectl command line binary
- The action
- The object to manage
This can be represented like this :

YAML, which stands for Yet Another Markup Language, or YAML Ain’t Markup Language is a human-readable text-based format for specifying configuration-type information.
Using YAML for Kubernetes definitions gives a number of advantages, including:
- Convenience: Declaring all the parameters in a command line is no longer needed
- Maintenance: YAML files can be added to source control to track changes
- Flexibility: Easier to configure complex structure in a file than a command line
YAML is a superset of JSON, which means that any valid JSON file is also a valid YAML file.
The usual basic structure of a Kubernetes YAML file definition look like this :
apiVersion: [...]
kind: [...]
metadata:
- [...]
spec:
- [...]- apiVersion : API version of the object to declare
- kind : Kubernetes object to manage (ex: Pod, Deployment, Service ...)
- metadata : metadata of the object declared (like labels, annotations ...)
- spec : main part of a YAML file, specification of each parameter defining the object declared (ex: image, replicas, volumes, secrets, environment ...)
Extract the default namespace YAML file definition with the command line.
{% tabs %} {% tab title="Command" %}
kubectl get namespace default -o yaml{% endtab %}
{% tab title="CLI Return" %}

Master components provide the cluster’s control plane. Master components make global decisions about the cluster (for example, scheduling), and detecting and responding to cluster events (starting up a new pod when a replication controller’s ‘replicas’ field is unsatisfied).
Master components can be run on any machine in the cluster. However, for simplicity, set up scripts typically start all master components on the same machine, and do not run user containers on this machine.
Node components are worker machine in Kubernetes, previously known as a minion. They maintain running pods and provide the Kubernetes runtime environment. They are the resources pool that will be managed by the masters to schedule the requested objects.
A basic Kubernetes architecture can be schematized like this :
List the all nodes of the cluster and identify the roles of each one.

Kubernetes supports multiple virtual clusters backed by the same physical cluster. These virtual clusters are called namespaces.
Namespaces provide a scope for names. Names of resources need to be unique within a namespace, but not across namespaces.
Namespaces are a way to divide cluster resources between multiple users via the definition of resource quotas.

kubectl delete -f ~/data/orchestration/namespace.yamlLabels are key/value pairs that are attached to objects, such as pods. Labels are intended to be used to specify identifying attributes of objects that are meaningful and relevant to users, but do not directly imply semantics to the core system. Labels can be used to organize and to select subsets of objects. Labels can be attached to objects at creation time and subsequently added and modified at any time. Each object can have a set of key/value labels defined. Each Key must be unique for a given object.

The main objective in this module is to create a namespace for a future application to isolate it and label the nodes to manage the deployment of each part of the application in the next modules.
For more information about the application used all along the course, please refer to the Exercise App > Voting App link in the left panel.
Based on the principles explain in this module, try by your own to handle this steps. Each steps has to be done in command line thanks to Kubectl.
