Kubernetes: 13. DaemonSets

Daemon Sets

  • DaemonSets are like replicaSet and deployment
  • While replicaSets and deployments makes sure that sufficient number of pods are running as defined in the replicas
  • DaemonSets make sure that atleast one pod runs on each node of the kubernetes cluster
  • If a new node is added to the cluster, DaemonSet automatically runs a pod on that node
  • Based on the node selector and node affinity rules, you can run DaemonSets only on targeted nodes
  • Some of the use cases of the DaemonSet are monitoring, log collector etc
  • Say you want to monitor pods running on the nodes, DaemonSet is perfect to make sure that monitoring agent is running via pod on every node
  • kube-proxy runs as a DaemonSet
  • DaemonSet definition file looks very similar to replicaSet definition
  • Before v1.12 kubernetes didnt had a way to create a pod on each node. The only way was to create a pod definition by setting the node name property
  • From v1.12 kubernetes now uses the combination of node affinity rules along with the daemon sets to schedule the pod on the node

daemon-set-definition.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: DaemonSet
metadata:
    name: monitoring-daemon-agent

spec:
    selector:
        matchLabels:
            app: monitoring-pod-agent
    template:
        metadata:
            labels:
                app: monitoring-pod-agent
        spec:
            containers:
            - image: omi-agent
              name: omi-agent-container


kubectl create -f daemon-set-definition.yaml 
-> Create daemonset using the definition file

kubectl get daemonsets
-> View existing daemon sets

kubectl describle daemonset <daemon-set-name>
-> Get more information of the daemon-set deployed

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...

underscore.js extend

underscore.js is a javascript utility library. Let us understand the extend method of this very useful library. _.extend is for extending a given object with all the properties of the passed-in object(s) Here is an example, we have three objects aObj, bObj, cObj and we want to combine them into single object. Using _.extend is a simple way of combining these objects. And before trying out the example don't forget to import the underscore.js library Now access the source code of underscore.js and look for the extend method. This is how it looks like This uses functional programming style.  createAssigner takes two inputs and returns a function. The two inputs are (1) keysFunc  (2) defaults Since it is returning a function, so a closure is formed, and the returned function remembers the two inputs Looking at the source code from the line (keys = keysFunc(source)) it is evident that keysFunc is a function itself. ...
