Kubernetes Deployment and Services

 





what is a deployment?


How to create a deployment?




using Command Prompt:



kubectl create deployment my-webdep --image=nginx --replicas=1 --port=80

using yml file:

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
name: nginx-deployment
spec:
selector:
matchLabels:
app: nginx
replicas: 1 # tells deployment to run 2 pods matching the template
template:
metadata:
labels:
app: nginx
spec:
containers:
- name: nginx
image: nginx:1.14.2
ports:
- containerPort: 80


kubectl apply -f deployment.yml



What is a Service?
        
     A Service in Kubernetes is an abstraction which defines a logical set of Pods and a policy by which to access them. Services enable a loose coupling between dependent Pods. A Service is defined using YAML  or JSON, like all Kubernetes objects. The set of Pods targeted by a Service is usually determined by a LabelSelector .

There are four different service types, each with different behaviors:

  1. ClusterIP exposes the service on an internal IP only. This makes the service reachable only from within the cluster. This is the default type.
  2. NodePort exposes the service on each node’s IP at a specific port. This gives the developers the freedom to set up their own load balancers, for example, or configure environments not fully supported by Kubernetes.
  3. LoadBalancer exposes the service externally using a cloud provider’s load balancer. This is often used when the cloud provider’s load balancer is supported by Kubernetes, as it automates their configuration.
  4. ExternalName will just map a CNAME record in DNS. No proxying of any kind is established. This is commonly used to create a service within Kubernetes to represent an external datastore like a database that runs externally to Kubernetes. One potential use case would be using AWS RDS as the production database, and a MySQL container for the testing environment.

Namespaces, Labels, and Annotations

Namespaces are virtual clusters within a physical cluster. They’re meant to give multiple teams, users, and projects a virtually separated environment to work on, and prevent teams from getting in each other’s way by limiting what Kubernetes objects teams can see and access.

Labels distinguish resources within a single namespace. They are key/value pairs that describe attributes, and can be used to organize and select subsets of objects. Labels allow for efficient queries and watches, and are ideal for use in user-oriented interfaces to map organization structures onto Kubernetes objects.

Labels are often used to describe release state (stable, canary), environment (development, testing, production), app tier (frontend, backend) or customer identification. Selectors use labels to filter or select objects, and are used throughout Kubernetes. This prevents objects from being hard linked.

Annotations, on the other hand, are a way to add arbitrary non-identifying metadata, or baggage, to objects. Annotations are often used for declarative configuration tooling; build, release or image information; or contact information for people responsible.

Kubernetes Tooling and Clients:

Here are the basic tools you should know:

  1. Kubeadm bootstraps a cluster. It’s designed to be a simple way for new users to build clusters (more detail on this is in a later chapter).
  2. Kubectl is a tool for interacting with your existing cluster.
  3. Minikube is a tool that makes it easy to run Kubernetes locally. For Mac users, HomeBrew makes using Minikube even simpler.

How to create a service?



kubectl expose deployment my-web --port=8080 --target-port=80 --type=LoadBalancer

YAML File

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
name: my-service
spec:
selector:
app: nginx
type: LoadBalancer
ports:
- protocol: TCP
port: 8080
targetPort: 80
To run the command in the terminal

kubectl apply -f service.yml

To check the services running, Use the below command.

kubectl get svc

Is-A and Has-A relationships in python

  In object-oriented programming, the concept of IS-A is a totally based on Inheritance, which can be of two types Class Inheritance or Interface Inheritance. It is just like saying "A is a B type of thing". For example, Apple is a Fruit, Car is a Vehicle etc. Inheritance is uni-directional. For example, House is a Building. But Building is not a House. #Is-A relationship --> By Inheritance class  A:    def   __init__ ( self ):      self .b= 10    def   mym1 ( self ):      print ( 'Parent method' ) class  B(A):    def   mym2 ( self ):      print ( 'Child method' ) d = B() d.mym1() #output: Parent method d.mym2() #output: Child method HAS-A Relationship:  Composition(HAS-A) simply mean the use of instance variables that are references to other objects. For example Maruti has Engine, or House has Bathroom. Let’s understand...

Magic Methods in Python

  What Are Dunder Methods ? In Python, special methods are a set of predefined methods you can use to enrich your classes.  They are easy to recognize because they start and end with double underscores, for example  __init__  or  __str__ . Dunder methods let you emulate the behavior of built-in types.  For example, to get the length of a string you can call  len('string') . But an empty class definition doesn’t support this behavior out of the box: These “dunders” or “special methods” in Python are also sometimes called “magic methods.” class NoLenSupport : pass >>> obj = NoLenSupport () >>> len ( obj ) TypeError : "object of type 'NoLenSupport' has no len()" To fix this, you can add a  __len__  dunder method to your class: class LenSupport : def __len__ ( self ): return 42 >>> obj = LenSupport () >>> len ( obj ) 42 Object Initialization:  __init__ "__init __ ...

Architechture of Kubernetes

  Kubernetes Architecture and Components: It follows the client-server architecture, from a high level, a Kubernetes environment consists of a  control plane (master) , a  distributed storage system  for keeping the cluster state consistent ( etcd ), and a number of  cluster nodes (Kubelets). We will now explore the individual components of a standard Kubernetes cluster to understand the process in greater detail. What is Master Node in Kubernetes Architecture? The Kubernetes Master (Master Node) receives input from a CLI (Command-Line Interface) or UI (User Interface) via an API. These are the commands you provide to Kubernetes. You define pods, replica sets, and services that you want Kubernetes to maintain. For example, which container image to use, which ports to expose, and how many pod replicas to run. You also provide the parameters of the desired state for the application(s) running in that cluster. API Server: The  API Server  is the front-end...
