16 Concepts and Types

19 Kubernetes and OpenShift help developers and operators build, test, and
20 deploy applications in a containerized cloud environment. Applications
21 may be composed of all of the components below, although most develop‐
22 ers will be concerned with Services, Deployments, and Builds for deliv‐
23 ering changes.
24
25
26 Concepts:
27
28 ·
29
30 Containers: A definition of how to run one or more processes inside of
31 a portable Linux environment. Containers are started from an Image and
32 are usually isolated from other containers on the same machine.
33
34 ·
35
36 Image: A layered Linux filesystem that contains application code,
37 dependencies, and any supporting operating system libraries. An image
38 is identified by a name that can be local to the current cluster or
39 point to a remote Docker registry (a storage server for images).
40
41 ·
42
43 Pods [pod]: A set of one or more containers that are deployed onto a
44 Node together and share a unique IP and Volumes (persistent storage).
45 Pods also define the security and runtime policy for each container.
46
47 ·
48
49 Labels: Labels are key value pairs that can be assigned to any resource
50 in the system for grouping and selection. Many resources use labels to
51 identify sets of other resources.
52
53 ·
54
55 Volumes: Containers are not persistent by default - on restart their
56 contents are cleared. Volumes are mounted filesystems available to Pods
57 and their containers which may be backed by a number of host-local or
58 network attached storage endpoints. The simplest volume type is Empty‐
59 Dir, which is a temporary directory on a single machine. Administrators
60 may also allow you to request a Persistent Volume that is automatically
61 attached to your pods.
62
63 ·
64
65 Nodes [node]: Machines set up in the cluster to run containers. Usually
66 managed by administrators and not by end users.
67
68 ·
69
70 Services [svc]: A name representing a set of pods (or external servers)
71 that are accessed by other pods. The service gets an IP and a DNS name,
72 and can be exposed externally to the cluster via a port or a Route.
73 It's also easy to consume services from pods because an environment
74 variable with the name <SERVICE>_HOST is automatically injected into
75 other pods.
76
77 ·
78
79 Routes [route]: A route is an external DNS entry (either a top level
80 domain or a dynamically allocated name) that is created to point to a
81 service so that it can be accessed outside the cluster. The administra‐
82 tor may configure one or more Routers to handle those routes, typically
83 through an Apache or HAProxy load balancer / proxy.
84
85 ·
86
87 Replication Controllers [rc]: A replication controller maintains a spe‐
88 cific number of pods based on a template that match a set of labels. If
89 pods are deleted (because the node they run on is taken out of service)
90 the controller creates a new copy of that pod. A replication controller
91 is most commonly used to represent a single deployment of part of an
92 application based on a built image.
93
94 ·
95
96 Deployment Configuration [dc]: Defines the template for a pod and man‐
97 ages deploying new images or configuration changes whenever those
98 change. A single deployment configuration is usually analogous to a
99 single micro-service. Can support many different deployment patterns,
100 including full restart, customizable rolling updates, and fully custom
101 behaviors, as well as pre- and post- hooks. Each deployment is repre‐
102 sented as a replication controller.
103
104 ·
105
106 Build Configuration [bc]: Contains a description of how to build source
107 code and a base image into a new image - the primary method for deliv‐
108 ering changes to your application. Builds can be source based and use
109 builder images for common languages like Java, PHP, Ruby, or Python, or
110 be Docker based and create builds from a Dockerfile. Each build config‐
111 uration has web-hooks and can be triggered automatically by changes to
112 their base images.
113
114 ·
115
116 Builds [build]: Builds create a new image from source code, other
117 images, Dockerfiles, or binary input. A build is run inside of a con‐
118 tainer and has the same restrictions normal pods have. A build usually
119 results in an image pushed to a Docker registry, but you can also
120 choose to run a post-build test that does not push an image.
121
122 ·
123
124 Image Streams and Image Stream Tags [is,istag]: An image stream groups
125 sets of related images under tags - analogous to a branch in a source
126 code repository. Each image stream may have one or more tags (the
127 default tag is called "latest") and those tags may point at external
128 Docker registries, at other tags in the same stream, or be controlled
129 to directly point at known images. In addition, images can be pushed to
130 an image stream tag directly via the integrated Docker registry.
131
132 ·
133
134 Secrets [secret]: The secret resource can hold text or binary secrets
135 for delivery into your pods. By default, every container is given a
136 single secret which contains a token for accessing the API (with lim‐
137 ited privileges) at /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount. You
138 can create new secrets and mount them in your own pods, as well as ref‐
139 erence secrets from builds (for connecting to remote servers) or use
140 them to import remote images into an image stream.
141
142 ·
143
144 Projects [project]: All of the above resources (except Nodes) exist
145 inside of a project. Projects have a list of members and their roles,
146 like viewer, editor, or admin, as well as a set of security controls on
147 the running pods, and limits on how many resources the project can use.
148 The names of each resource are unique within a project. Developers may
149 request projects be created, but administrators control the resources
150 allocated to projects.
