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.

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.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.26 [stable] Kubernetes keeps many aspects of how pods execute on nodes abstracted from the user. This is by design. However, some workloads require stronger guarantees in terms of latency and/or performance in order to operate acceptably. The kubelet provides methods to enable more complex workload placement policies while keeping the abstraction free from explicit placement directives. For detailed information on resource management, please refer to the Resource Management for Pods and Containers documentation.

This page shows how to create a Pod that uses a Secret to pull an image from a private container image registry or repository. There are many private registries in use. This task uses Docker Hub as an example registry. 🛇 This item links to a third party project or product that is not part of Kubernetes itself. More information Before you begin You need to have a Kubernetes cluster, and the kubectl command-line tool must be configured to communicate with your cluster.

FEATURE STATE: Kubernetes v1.26 [stable] Windows HostProcess containers enable you to run containerized workloads on a Windows host. These containers operate as normal processes but have access to the host network namespace, storage, and devices when given the appropriate user privileges. HostProcess containers can be used to deploy network plugins, storage configurations, device plugins, kube-proxy, and other components to Windows nodes without the need for dedicated proxies or the direct installation of host services.

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.

This page shows how to define dependent environment variables for a container in a Kubernetes Pod. 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:

Production-Grade Container Orchestration

Synopsis Create a deployment with the specified name. kubectl create deployment NAME --image=image -- [COMMAND] [args...] Examples # Create a deployment named my-dep that runs the busybox image kubectl create deployment my-dep --image=busybox # Create a deployment with a command kubectl create deployment my-dep --image=busybox -- date # Create a deployment named my-dep that runs the nginx image with 3 replicas kubectl create deployment my-dep --image=nginx --replicas=3 # Create a deployment named my-dep that runs the busybox image and expose port 5701 kubectl create deployment my-dep --image=busybox --port=5701 # Create a deployment named my-dep that runs multiple containers kubectl create deployment my-dep --image=busybox:latest --image=ubuntu:latest --image=nginx Options --allow-missing-template-keys     Default: true If true, ignore any errors in templates when a field or map key is missing in the template.

Synopsis Roll back to a previous rollout. kubectl rollout undo (TYPE NAME | TYPE/NAME) [flags] Examples # Roll back to the previous deployment kubectl rollout undo deployment/abc # Roll back to daemonset revision 3 kubectl rollout undo daemonset/abc --to-revision=3 # Roll back to the previous deployment with dry-run kubectl rollout undo --dry-run=server deployment/abc Options --allow-missing-template-keys     Default: true If true, ignore any errors in templates when a field or map key is missing in the template.
