  Kubernetes v1.6 contains a new binary called cloud-controller-manager. cloud-controller-manager is a daemon that embeds cloud-specific control loops. These cloud-specific control loops were originally in the kube-controller-manager. Since cloud providers develop and release at a different pace compared to the Kubernetes project, abstracting the provider-specific code to the cloud-controller-manager binary allows cloud vendors to evolve independently from the core Kubernetes code.

  • In the Kubernetes Community: Conversations often use upstream to mean the core Kubernetes codebase, which the general ecosystem, other code, or third-party tools relies upon. For example, community members may suggest that a feature is moved upstream so that it is in the core codebase instead of in a plugin or third-party tool.
  • In GitHub or git: The convention is to refer to a source repo as upstream, whereas the forked repo is considered downstream.

  [+]

  A Volume Plugin lets you attach and mount storage volumes for use by a PodA high-level summary of what phase the Pod is in within its lifecyle. . Volume plugins can be in tree or out of tree. In tree plugins are part of the Kubernetes code repository and follow its release cycle. Out of tree plugins are developed independently.

• WG (working group)LINK

  Facilitates the discussion and/or implementation of a short-lived, narrow, or decoupled project for a committee, SIGCommunity members who collectively manage an ongoing piece or aspect of the larger Kubernetes open source project. , or cross-SIG effort.

  [+]

  Working groups are a way of organizing people to accomplish a discrete task, and are relatively easy to create and deprecate when inactive.

  For more information, see the kubernetes/community repo and the current list of SIGs and working groups.

• WorkloadLINK

  A workload consists of a system of services or applications that can run to fulfill a task or carry out a business process.

  [+]

  Alongside the computer code that runs to carry out the task, a workload also entails the infrastructure resources that actually run that code.

  For example, a workload that has a web element and a database element might run the database in one StatefulSetManages the deployment and scaling of a set of Pods, and provides guarantees about the ordering and uniqueness of these Pods. of podsA high-level summary of what phase the Pod is in within its lifecyle. and the webserver via a DeploymentAn API object that manages a replicated application. that consists of many web app podsA high-level summary of what phase the Pod is in within its lifecyle. , all alike.

  The organisation running this workload may well have other workloads that together provide a valuable outcome to its users.

• dockerLINK

  Docker is a software technology providing operating-system-level virtualization also known as containers.

  [+]

  Docker uses the resource isolation features of the Linux kernel such as cgroups and kernel namespaces, and a union-capable file system such as OverlayFS and others to allow independent “containers” to run within a single Linux instance, avoiding the overhead of starting and maintaining virtual machines (VMs).

• etcdLINK

  모든 클러스터 데이터를 담는 쿠버네티스 뒷단의 저장소로 사용되는 일관성·고가용성 키-값 저장소.

  [+]

  쿠버네티스 클러스터 정보를 담고 있는 etcd 데이터에 대한 백업 계획은 필수이다. etcd에 대해 자세히 알아보려면 etcd 문서를 참고하라.

• kube-apiserverLINK

  쿠버네티스 API를 노출하는 마스터 상의 컴포넌트. 쿠버네티스 컨트롤 플레인에 대한 프론트엔드이다.

• kube-controller-managerLINK

  컨트롤러API 서버를 통해 클러스터의 공유된 상태를 감시하고, 현재 상태를 원하는 상태로 이행시키도록 하는 컨트롤 루프. 를 구동하는 마스터 상의 컴포넌트.

  [+]

• kube-proxyLINK

  kube-proxy is a network proxy that runs on each node in the cluster.

  [+]

  kube-proxy is responsible for request forwarding. kube-proxy allows TCP and UDP stream forwarding or round robin TCP and UDP forwarding across a set of backend functions.

• kube-schedulerLINK

  노드가 배정되지 않은 새로 생성된 파드를 감지하고 그것이 구동될 노드를 선택하는 마스터 상의 컴포넌트.

  [+]

  스케줄링 결정을 위한 어카운트 내 요소들로는 개별 및 공동의 리소스 요건, 하드웨어/소프트웨어/정책 제약, 친밀 및 배격 명세, 데이터 지역성, 워크로드-간 간섭, 데드라인들이 포함된다.

• rktLINK

  A security-minded, standards-based container engine.

  [+]

  rkt is an application {% glossary_tooltip text=“container” term_id=“container” %} engine featuring a {% glossary_tooltip text=“pod” term_id=“pod” %}-native approach, a pluggable execution environment, and a well-defined surface area. rkt allows users to apply different configurations at both the pod and application level and each pod executes directly in the classic Unix process model, in a self-contained, isolated environment.

• sysctlLINK

  sysctl is a semi-standardized interface for reading or changing the attributes of the running Unix kernel.

  [+]

  On Unix-like systems, sysctl is both the name of the tool that administrators use to view and modify these settings, and also the system call that the tool uses.

  ContainerThe lifecycle hooks expose events in the container management lifecycle and let the user run code when the events occur. runtimes and network plugins may rely on sysctl values being set a certain way.

• 이름(Name)LINK

  /api/v1/pods/some-name과 같이, 리소스 URL에서 오브젝트를 가리키는 클라이언트 제공 문자열.

  [+]

  특정 시점에 같은 종류(kind) 내에서는 한 오브젝트만이 부여된 이름을 가질 수 있다. 하지만, 오브젝트를 삭제한 경우, 새로운 오브젝트를 같은 이름으로 만들 수 있다.
