The cloud-controller-manager is a Kubernetes control plane component that embeds cloud-specific control logic. The cloud controller manager lets you link your cluster into your cloud provider's API, and separates out the components that interact with that cloud platform from components that only interact with your cluster. By decoupling the interoperability logic between Kubernetes and the underlying cloud infrastructure, the cloud-controller-manager component enables cloud providers to release features at a different pace compared to the main Kubernetes project.

Define a range of valid CPU resource limits for a namespace, so that every new Pod in that namespace falls within the range you configure.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.34 [beta](enabled by default) This page shows how to specify CPU and memory resources for a Pod at pod-level in addition to container-level resource specifications. A Kubernetes node allocates resources to a pod based on the pod's resource requests. These requests can be defined at the pod level or individually for containers within the pod. When both are present, the pod-level requests take precedence. Similarly, a pod's resource usage is restricted by limits, which can also be set at the pod-level or individually for containers within the pod.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.22 [alpha] This document describes how to run Kubernetes Node components such as kubelet, CRI, OCI, and CNI without root privileges, by using a user namespace. This technique is also known as rootless mode. Note:This document describes how to run Kubernetes Node components (and hence pods) as a non-root user. If you are just looking for how to run a pod as a non-root user, see SecurityContext.

Production-Grade Container Orchestration

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.11 [beta] Since cloud providers develop and release at a different pace compared to the Kubernetes project, abstracting the provider-specific code to the cloud-controller-manager binary allows cloud vendors to evolve independently from the core Kubernetes code. The cloud-controller-manager can be linked to any cloud provider that satisfies cloudprovider.Interface. For backwards compatibility, the cloud-controller-manager provided in the core Kubernetes project uses the same cloud libraries as kube-controller-manager. Cloud providers already supported in Kubernetes core are expected to use the in-tree cloud-controller-manager to transition out of Kubernetes core.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.26 [stable] Starting from Kubernetes v1.20, the kubelet can dynamically retrieve credentials for a container image registry using exec plugins. The kubelet and the exec plugin communicate through stdio (stdin, stdout, and stderr) using Kubernetes versioned APIs. These plugins allow the kubelet to request credentials for a container registry dynamically as opposed to storing static credentials on disk. For example, the plugin may talk to a local metadata server to retrieve short-lived credentials for an image that is being pulled by the kubelet.

This page shows how to use Romana for NetworkPolicy. Before you begin Complete steps 1, 2, and 3 of the kubeadm getting started guide. Installing Romana with kubeadm Follow the containerized installation guide for kubeadm. Applying network policies To apply network policies use one of the following: Romana network policies. Example of Romana network policy. The NetworkPolicy API. What's next Once you have installed Romana, you can follow the Declare Network Policy to try out Kubernetes NetworkPolicy.

This page shows how to specify extended resources for a Node. Extended resources allow cluster administrators to advertise node-level resources that would otherwise be unknown to Kubernetes. 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.

This page shows a couple of quick ways to create a Calico cluster on Kubernetes. Before you begin Decide whether you want to deploy a cloud or local cluster. Creating a Calico cluster with Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) Prerequisite: gcloud. To launch a GKE cluster with Calico, include the --enable-network-policy flag. Syntax gcloud container clusters create [CLUSTER_NAME] --enable-network-policy Example gcloud container clusters create my-calico-cluster --enable-network-policy To verify the deployment, use the following command.
