If two Pods in your cluster want to communicate, and both Pods are actually running on the same node, use _Service Internal Traffic Policy_ to keep network traffic within that node. Avoiding a round trip via the cluster network can help with reliability, performance (network latency and throughput), or cost.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.19 [stable] The scheduling framework is a pluggable architecture for the Kubernetes scheduler. It consists of a set of "plugin" APIs that are compiled directly into the scheduler. These APIs allow most scheduling features to be implemented as plugins, while keeping the scheduling "core" lightweight and maintainable. Refer to the design proposal of the scheduling framework for more technical information on the design of the framework.

This document describes ephemeral volumes in Kubernetes. Familiarity with volumes is suggested, in particular PersistentVolumeClaim and PersistentVolume. Some applications need additional storage but don't care whether that data is stored persistently across restarts. For example, caching services are often limited by memory size and can move infrequently used data into storage that is slower than memory with little impact on overall performance. Other applications expect some read-only input data to be present in files, like configuration data or secret keys.

In this example, you will run a Kubernetes Job with multiple parallel worker processes. In this example, as each pod is created, it picks up one unit of work from a task queue, completes it, deletes it from the queue, and exits. Here is an overview of the steps in this example: Start a message queue service. In this example, you use RabbitMQ, but you could use another one. In practice you would set up a message queue service once and reuse it for many jobs.

This topic discusses multiple ways to interact with clusters. Accessing for the first time with kubectl When accessing the Kubernetes API for the first time, we suggest using the Kubernetes CLI, kubectl. To access a cluster, you need to know the location of the cluster and have credentials to access it. Typically, this is automatically set-up when you work through a Getting started guide, or someone else set up the cluster and provided you with credentials and a location.

This page shows you how to run a single-instance stateful application in Kubernetes using a PersistentVolume and a Deployment. The application is MySQL. Objectives Create a PersistentVolume referencing a disk in your environment. Create a MySQL Deployment. Expose MySQL to other pods in the cluster at a known DNS name. Before you begin You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster.

Synopsis Set an individual value in a kubeconfig file. PROPERTY_NAME is a dot delimited name where each token represents either an attribute name or a map key. Map keys may not contain dots. PROPERTY_VALUE is the new value you want to set. Binary fields such as 'certificate-authority-data' expect a base64 encoded string unless the --set-raw-bytes flag is used. Specifying an attribute name that already exists will merge new fields on top of existing values.

Synopsis Create a service using a specified subcommand. kubectl create service [flags] Options -h, --help help for service --as string Username to impersonate for the operation. User could be a regular user or a service account in a namespace. --as-group strings Group to impersonate for the operation, this flag can be repeated to specify multiple groups. --as-uid string UID to impersonate for the operation. --cache-dir string     Default: "$HOME/.kube/cache" Default cache directory

Synopsis Build a set of KRM resources using a 'kustomization.yaml' file. The DIR argument must be a path to a directory containing 'kustomization.yaml', or a git repository URL with a path suffix specifying same with respect to the repository root. If DIR is omitted, '.' is assumed. kubectl kustomize DIR [flags] Examples # Build the current working directory kubectl kustomize # Build some shared configuration directory kubectl kustomize /home/config/production # Build from github kubectl kustomize https://github.
