Kubernetes is the new mind breaking technology of Google and it is very close to Docker. In fact you need docker to run Kubernetes as well. So you can say that Kubernetes is based on Docker. So let's get it going. We will use 3 machines:

To configure our kubernetes, we have to install the following:

Furhtermore, Kubernetes have various objects, but let's examine the main ones:

Package Installation

To install the packages we have to:

  1. Configure the Repos
  2. Actuall install the packages.

So let's get going :)

Configure the Repos

The repo is configured very easy using the following script:

Repo Config

apt-get update && apt-get install -y apt-transport-https
curl -s https://packages.cloud.google.com/apt/doc/apt-key.gpg | apt-key add -
cat <<EOF >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/kubernetes.list
deb http://apt.kubernetes.io/ kubernetes-xenial main
EOF
apt-get update

Please bare in mind, this is for Ubuntu Xenial 64. If you have different distribution please adjust….the last entry :)
