Multi-Node Kubernetes Cluster with kubeadm

A three-node cluster built by hand on Vagrant VMs, with etcd backups

3-4 weeks build

Overview

Kubernetes without the managed service doing the hard parts. Three Vagrant VMs are prepared with a container runtime, kubeadm initialises the control plane and joins two workers, Calico provides pod networking, and Ingress-NGINX exposes a sample app. etcd is snapshotted and restored after a deliberate break, and a node is drained and upgraded. It runs on a laptop with around 8 GB of spare RAM.

What makes it stand up

  • 01Control plane and two workers built from bare Linux VMs
  • 02Container runtime, kernel settings and prerequisites set by script
  • 03Calico pod networking and a network policy that is tested
  • 04Ingress-NGINX routing a sample app by hostname
  • 05etcd snapshot and restore, plus a drained node upgrade

Module breakdown

  1. 01

    VMs

    Vagrantfile for three nodes with fixed private IPs.

  2. 02

    Bootstrap

After this, you will be able to

  • Explain what each control-plane component does
  • Defend your CNI and pod network choices
  • Demo restoring the cluster from an etcd snapshot
