Managed Kubernetes: why you need it now

There has been a fundamental shift in application development from building on virtual machines to using containers to be able to run your applications efficiently. Containers are great for developers but they are a nightmare to manage. OVHcloud has introduced a Managed Kubernetes service so you can spend your time developing and not managing the containers. Let us explain the advantages of our Managed Kubernetes solutions.

To help you go further and deploy your own cluster below are some resources you might find helpful and the commands used in the demo:

Commands:

# Download the latest binary with curl

# add the executable flag to the file
chmod +x kubectl

# Move the binary to somehwere in the PATH
sudo mv kubectl /usr/local/bin

# Test that we can use the cli
kubectl version

# The default path for kubectl configuration file is ~/.kube/config

# Create the .kube directory
mkdir .kube

# Move the configuration there
mv kubeconfig .kube/config

# Test the kubectl cluster communication
kubectl get nodes

# Download helm from the official website with wget

# uncompress the tarball

# Move the binary to somewhere in the PATH
sudo mv linux-amd64/helm /usr/local/bin

# Add the bitnami repository to helm


# Tell helm to install the "bitnami/wordpress" chart with name "my-first-k8s-wordpress"
helm install my-first-k8s-wordpress bitnami/wordpress --set allowOverrideNone=true

Why would you containerized a WordPress site? It's a session based application. How can you can you manage sessions across different nodes?

i have tried this and everything runs fine until i need to create 2 or more wordpress replicas in this case the pods are never created (always ne creatingcontainer status) and the logs show a failure that it is not possible to multi-attach the volumes in other nodes. any solution for this?

Which one is "the server" you upload the kubeconfig file to? The default one created in the nodepool or to a public cloud instance that you have to create? I don't see any ssh keys to access the nodes in the pool. Are these the master nodes then?
