Jobs represent one-off tasks that run to completion and then stop.

This page provides an overview of available configuration options and best practices for cluster multi-tenancy. Sharing clusters saves costs and simplifies administration. However, sharing clusters also presents challenges such as security, fairness, and managing noisy neighbors. Clusters can be shared in many ways. In some cases, different applications may run in the same cluster. In other cases, multiple instances of the same application may run in the same cluster, one for each end user.

Kubernetes offers two distinct ways for clients that run within your cluster, or that otherwise have a relationship to your cluster's control plane to authenticate to the API server. A service account provides an identity for processes that run in a Pod, and maps to a ServiceAccount object. When you authenticate to the API server, you identify yourself as a particular user. Kubernetes recognises the concept of a user, however, Kubernetes itself does not have a User API.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.19 [stable] Seccomp stands for secure computing mode and has been a feature of the Linux kernel since version 2.6.12. It can be used to sandbox the privileges of a process, restricting the calls it is able to make from userspace into the kernel. Kubernetes lets you automatically apply seccomp profiles loaded onto a node to your Pods and containers. Identifying the privileges required for your workloads can be difficult.

Every node in a Kubernetes cluster runs a kube-proxy (unless you have deployed your own alternative component in place of kube-proxy). The kube-proxy component is responsible for implementing a virtual IP mechanism for Services of type other than ExternalName. Each instance of kube-proxy watches the Kubernetes control plane for the addition and removal of Service and EndpointSlice objects. For each Service, kube-proxy calls appropriate APIs (depending on the kube-proxy mode) to configure the node to capture traffic to the Service's clusterIP and port, and redirect that traffic to one of the Service's endpoints (usually a Pod, but possibly an arbitrary user-provided IP address).

This command initializes a Kubernetes control plane node.

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.

This page shows how to perform a rolling update on a DaemonSet. 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 document shares how to validate IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack enabled Kubernetes clusters. Before you begin Provider support for dual-stack networking (Cloud provider or otherwise must be able to provide Kubernetes nodes with routable IPv4/IPv6 network interfaces) A network plugin that supports dual-stack networking. Dual-stack enabled cluster Your Kubernetes server must be at or later than version v1.23. To check the version, enter kubectl version. Note:While you can validate with an earlier version, the feature is only GA and officially supported since v1.
