Concepts for keeping your cloud-native workload secure.

kube-state-metrics, an add-on agent to generate and expose cluster-level metrics.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.18 [stable] This page shows how to configure Group Managed Service Accounts (GMSA) for Pods and containers that will run on Windows nodes. Group Managed Service Accounts are a specific type of Active Directory account that provides automatic password management, simplified service principal name (SPN) management, and the ability to delegate the management to other administrators across multiple servers. In Kubernetes, GMSA credential specs are configured at a Kubernetes cluster-wide scope as Custom Resources.

This example demonstrates how to limit the amount of storage consumed in a namespace. The following resources are used in the demonstration: ResourceQuota, LimitRange, and PersistentVolumeClaim. Before you begin You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. It is recommended to run this tutorial on a cluster with at least two nodes that are not acting as control plane hosts.

Before you begin Some steps in this page use the jq tool. If you don't have jq, you can install it via your operating system's software sources, or fetch it from https://jqlang.github.io/jq/. Some steps also involve installing curl, which can be installed via your operating system's software sources. A subset of the kubelet's configuration parameters may be set via an on-disk config file, as a substitute for command-line flags. Providing parameters via a config file is the recommended approach because it simplifies node deployment and configuration management.

This page describes the CoreDNS upgrade process and how to install CoreDNS instead of kube-dns. Before you begin You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. It is recommended to run this tutorial on a cluster with at least two nodes that are not acting as control plane hosts. If you do not already have a cluster, you can create one by using minikube or you can use one of these Kubernetes playgrounds:

This page shows how to use an Init Container to initialize a Pod before an application Container runs. Before you begin You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster. It is recommended to run this tutorial on a cluster with at least two nodes that are not acting as control plane hosts. If you do not already have a cluster, you can create one by using minikube or you can use one of these Kubernetes playgrounds:

The dockershim component of Kubernetes allows the use of Docker as a Kubernetes's container runtime. Kubernetes' built-in dockershim component was removed in release v1.24. This page explains how your cluster could be using Docker as a container runtime, provides details on the role that dockershim plays when in use, and shows steps you can take to check whether any workloads could be affected by dockershim removal. Finding if your app has a dependencies on Docker If you are using Docker for building your application containers, you can still run these containers on any container runtime.

This page explains how to add Linux worker nodes to a kubeadm cluster. Before you begin Each joining worker node has installed the required components from Installing kubeadm, such as, kubeadm, the kubelet and a container runtime. A running kubeadm cluster created by kubeadm init and following the steps in the document Creating a cluster with kubeadm. You need superuser access to the node. Adding Linux worker nodes To add new Linux worker nodes to your cluster do the following for each machine:

This page explains how to enable a package repository for the desired Kubernetes minor release upon upgrading a cluster. This is only needed for users of the community-owned package repositories hosted at pkgs.k8s.io. Unlike the legacy package repositories, the community-owned package repositories are structured in a way that there's a dedicated package repository for each Kubernetes minor version. Note:This guide only covers a part of the Kubernetes upgrade process. Please see the upgrade guide for more information about upgrading Kubernetes clusters.
