• OpenEBS on MicroK8S on Hetzner

  Last few months I experimented more and more with all OpenEBS solutions that fit small Kubernetes cluster, using MicroK8S and Hetzner Cloud for a real experience. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Network Storage on On-Prem Barebones Machine

  I would investigate https://openebs.io/ https://portworx.com/ https://longhorn.io/ if you are forced to you can mount ISCSI on the kublet and feed it to one of those solutions. Keep in mind most of the big guys buy some sort of managed solution that you can point a CSI like trident https://netapp-trident.readthedocs.io. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Ask HN: What are some fun projects to run on a home K8s cluster?

  What are some cool projects to self hosted on a home Raspberry Pi (64 bit) Kubernetes cluster (Helm charts). Arm64 support is a must. A lot of projects only build amd64 Docker containers which don't run on my cluster. I currently run:

     - obenebs (provides abstraction for using local k8s worker disks as PVC mounts when running on-prem) -- https://openebs.io/.

• My self-hosting infrastructure, fully automated

  What do you use to provision Kubernetes persistent volumes on bare metal? I’m looking at open-ebs (https://openebs.io/). Also, when you bump the image tag in a git commit for a given helm chart, how does that get deployed? Is it automatic, or do you manually run helm upgrade commands? - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Building a "complete" cluster locally

  Ideas from my kubernetes experience: * Cert-Manager is very popular and almost a must-have if you terminate SSL inside the cluster * Backups using velero * A dashboard/UI is actually very helpful to quickly browse resources, client tools like k9s are fine too * Secret: Management: Bitnami Sealed Secrets is the second big project in that space * I would add Loki to aggregate Logs * Never heard of ory. Usually I see... Source: over 2 years ago

• Terraform code for kubernetes on vsphere?

  I don't know in which extend you plan to use Kubernetes in the future, but if it is aimed to become several huge production clusters, you should looks into Apps like Rancher: https://rancher.com. Source: over 1 year ago

• I want to provide some free support for community, how should I start?

  But I think once you have a good understanding of K8S internal (components, how thing work underlying, etc.), you can use some tool to help you provision / maintain k8s cluster easier (look for https://rancher.com/ and alternatives). Source: almost 2 years ago

• Don't Use Kubernetes, Yet

  A few years, I would have said no. Now, I'm cautiously optimistic about it. Personally, I think that you can use something like Rancher (https://rancher.com/) or Portainer (https://www.portainer.io/) for easier management and/or dashboard functionality, to make the learning curve a bit more approachable. For example, you can create a deployment through the UI by following a wizard that also offers you... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Building an Internal Kubernetes Platform

  Alternatively, it is also possible to use a multi-cloud or hybrid-cloud approach, which combines several cloud providers or even public and private clouds. Special tools such as Rancher and OpenShift can be very useful to run this type of system. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• Five Dex Alternatives for Kubernetes Authentication

  Rancher provides a Rancher authentication proxy that allows user authentication from a central location. With this proxy, you can set the credential for authenticating users that want to access your Kubernetes clusters. You can create, view, update, or delete users through Rancher’s UI and API. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago
