Make your HTTP (or HTTPS) network service available using a protocol-aware configuration mechanism, that understands web concepts like URIs, hostnames, paths, and more. The Ingress concept lets you map traffic to different backends based on rules you define via the Kubernetes API.

This page provides a list of Kubernetes certified solution providers. From each provider page, you can learn how to install and setup production ready clusters.

Kubernetes requires PKI certificates for authentication over TLS. If you install Kubernetes with kubeadm, the certificates that your cluster requires are automatically generated. You can also generate your own certificates -- for example, to keep your private keys more secure by not storing them on the API server. This page explains the certificates that your cluster requires. How certificates are used by your cluster Kubernetes requires PKI for the following operations:

This page provides an overview of best practices when it comes to enforcing Pod Security Standards. Using the built-in Pod Security Admission Controller FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.25 [stable] The Pod Security Admission Controller intends to replace the deprecated PodSecurityPolicies. Configure all cluster namespaces Namespaces that lack any configuration at all should be considered significant gaps in your cluster security model. We recommend taking the time to analyze the types of workloads occurring in each namespace, and by referencing the Pod Security Standards, decide on an appropriate level for each of them.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.14 [beta] kube-scheduler is the Kubernetes default scheduler. It is responsible for placement of Pods on Nodes in a cluster. Nodes in a cluster that meet the scheduling requirements of a Pod are called feasible Nodes for the Pod. The scheduler finds feasible Nodes for a Pod and then runs a set of functions to score the feasible Nodes, picking a Node with the highest score among the feasible ones to run the Pod.

Node-pressure eviction is the process by which the kubelet proactively terminates pods to reclaim resource on nodes. The kubelet monitors resources like memory, disk space, and filesystem inodes on your cluster's nodes. When one or more of these resources reach specific consumption levels, the kubelet can proactively fail one or more pods on the node to reclaim resources and prevent starvation. During a node-pressure eviction, the kubelet sets the phase for the selected pods to Failed, and terminates the Pod.

In Kubernetes, scheduling refers to making sure that Pods are matched to Nodes so that Kubelet can run them. Scheduling overview A scheduler watches for newly created Pods that have no Node assigned. For every Pod that the scheduler discovers, the scheduler becomes responsible for finding the best Node for that Pod to run on. The scheduler reaches this placement decision taking into account the scheduling principles described below.
