This page introduces Quality of Service (QoS) classes in Kubernetes, and explains how Kubernetes assigns a QoS class to each Pod as a consequence of the resource constraints that you specify for the containers in that Pod. Kubernetes relies on this classification to make decisions about which Pods to evict when there are not enough available resources on a Node. Quality of Service classes Kubernetes classifies the Pods that you run and allocates each Pod into a specific quality of service (QoS) class.

You've deployed your application and exposed it via a Service. Now what? Kubernetes provides a number of tools to help you manage your application deployment, including scaling and updating. Organizing resource configurations Many applications require multiple resources to be created, such as a Deployment along with a Service. Management of multiple resources can be simplified by grouping them together in the same file (separated by --- in YAML). For example:

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

This document describes the concept of cloning existing CSI Volumes in Kubernetes. Familiarity with Volumes is suggested. Introduction The CSI Volume Cloning feature adds support for specifying existing PVCs in the dataSource field to indicate a user would like to clone a Volume. A Clone is defined as a duplicate of an existing Kubernetes Volume that can be consumed as any standard Volume would be. The only difference is that upon provisioning, rather than creating a "new" empty Volume, the back end device creates an exact duplicate of the specified Volume.

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:

Kustomize is a standalone tool to customize Kubernetes objects through a kustomization file. Since 1.14, kubectl also supports the management of Kubernetes objects using a kustomization file. To view resources found in a directory containing a kustomization file, run the following command: kubectl kustomize <kustomization_directory> To apply those resources, run kubectl apply with --kustomize or -k flag: kubectl apply -k <kustomization_directory> Before you begin Install kubectl. You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster.

Kubernetes objects can be created, updated, and deleted by using the kubectl command-line tool along with an object configuration file written in YAML or JSON. This document explains how to define and manage objects using configuration files. Before you begin Install kubectl. 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.

This task shows how to scale a StatefulSet. Scaling a StatefulSet refers to increasing or decreasing the number of replicas. Before you begin StatefulSets are only available in Kubernetes version 1.5 or later. To check your version of Kubernetes, run kubectl version. Not all stateful applications scale nicely. If you are unsure about whether to scale your StatefulSets, see StatefulSet concepts or StatefulSet tutorial for further information. You should perform scaling only when you are confident that your stateful application cluster is completely healthy.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.24 [stable] In this example, you will run a Kubernetes Job that uses multiple parallel worker processes. Each worker is a different container running in its own Pod. The Pods have an index number that the control plane sets automatically, which allows each Pod to identify which part of the overall task to work on. The pod index is available in the annotation batch.kubernetes.io/job-completion-index as a string representing its decimal value.

This page shows how to securely inject sensitive data, such as passwords and encryption keys, into Pods. 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.
