Kubernetes - The Easy Way! (with Rancher)

Gimme Some of that Sweet K8s!

Kubernetes ( https://kubernetes.io/ ) - every blogger, influencer and LinkedIn post sharer is all over it, but putting aside the hype, what do you need in order to get Kubernetes running in the Enterprise?

Firstly, awareness there is a steep learning curve.

For someone to write a book/tutorial about something with “The Hard Way” in its title ( https://github.com/kelseyhightower/kubernetes-the-hard-way ), there’s an implicit understanding that it ain’t gonna be easy to get up and running.

Secondly, some Cultural Change.

If your organisation treats resources as pets, not cattle, you need a mindshift. Kubernetes (K8s - a numeronym ) can run pretty much anywhere, it doesn’t particularly care about the servers, storage or networks under the hood so long as they’re there.

Finally, Rancher! https://rancher.com/

Rancher removes the complexity around deploying and managing Kubernetes clusters as well as providing Enterprise must haves such as Authentication and RBAC hooks, built in monitoring and network security policies.

With Rancher it is possible to deploy Kubernetes clusters across infrastructure providers (AWS, GCP, Azure, Vsphere etc) all controlled and managed through a single pane of glass.
