Kubernetes: 10. Node Selector

Scheduler

By default Pods gets scheduled based on node availability for the scheduler
There may be cases where in one of the node has more resources and the pod required to be scheduled on this node
There are two ways to achieve this

Node Selector
Node Affinity

Node Selector

Update the pod definition file with the node selector label
Pod will be scheduled on the node matching the label
But first, Node has to be labelled.
Within the pod definition spec.nodeSelector is the property to map a pod to a node
With node selector, you can only have a simple key-value selection
There are no options for advanced selectors like label in certain values, or label not-in a value

pod-definition.yaml

apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
        name: myapp-pod
        labels:
                app: myapp

spec:
        containers:
            - name: nginx-container
                image: nginx

    
        nodeSelector:
                  size: Large

kubectl label node <node-name> <label-key>=<label-value> 
-> Set a node label with key value pair

kubectl label node node01 size=Large 
-> Set node01 label size to Large value

Azure Active Directory

Azure Active directory (AAD) is a Identity as a Service. This is a smaller subset of Active directory. This is not a replacement to active directory at all. Azure active directory provides the identity services to the mobile apps and web apps in Private cloud. These apps may be connected to on-premise applications. So an SSO is enabled for these apps. So Azure active directory has very simple functionality. Create Users, Groups. Map groups to network security groups and provide the authentication to the resources. When you login to Azure portal, right upper corner of the screen has username along with the domain. Domain or tenant or organization are used interchangeably. Management of Users and Groups: Cloud identity (create users manually) Directory synchronized identifiers (users are synchronized) Add users Adding a cloud identity users makes the user as Guest When you do directory synchronization on Premise AD Groups are synched up wi...

Kubernetes: 19. Configure Application

Configuring application consists of Configuring commands and arguments on applications Configuring environment variables Configuring secrets Docker Commands docker run ubuntu -> Runs ubuntu container and exit, container CMD is set to [bash], so the container quitely exits docker run ubuntu echo "Hello World" -> Runs ubuntu container, prints "Hello World" exits quitely. To update the default settings, create your own image from the base image lets call this ubuntu-sleeper image FROM ubuntu CMD sleep 5 CMD can also be mentioned in the JSON format like CMD ["sleep", "5"] Note that with JSON format the first element should always be the command to execute, for eg, it CANNOT be ["sleep 5"] Run build the new ubuntu-sleeper image and run the new image docker build -t ubuntu-sleeper . -> Build the image docker run ubuntu-sleeper -> Run the new image So the new image will launch ubuntu container, sleep for 5 seconds and quitely ex...

Kubernetes: 5. Services

A service is a stable endpoint to connect to "something" An abstract way to expose an application running on a set of pods as a network service. Services enable communication between various components within and outside of the application With Kubernetes Services there is no need to configure the application for service discovery Kubernetes Service is an object just like Pod, ReplicaSet etc There is always a service running when Kubernetes is installed, Kubernetes API itself When a service is created, kubernetes creates the endpoints (kubectl get endpoints) The endpoints has all the pods associated with that service Headless Service A headless service is obtained by setting clusterIP field to None Since there is no virtual IP address, there is no load balancer either The DNS service will return the pods' IP addresses as multiple A records This gives us an easy way to discover all the replicas for a deployment This is useful for creating stateful service...
