What is AgoraKube

AgoraKube is an easy-to-use, stable Kubernetes distribution (Kubernetes v1.15, 1.16, 1.17, 1.18).

By its symplicity, AgoraKube provide a good way to deploy and manage K8S Clusters.

AgoraKube is based on Ansible scripts that install and configure Kubernetes components (control plane and data plane) quickly on bare-metal / VMs / Cloud Instances, as systemd services.

This distribution is also adaptive by offering the opportunity to customize your deployment and fit to your needs :

  • OS : Ubuntu-18.04/20.04-amd64 and Centos 7.X-amd64, Debian-10-amd64
  • DNS Service: CoreDNS
  • Ingress Controller Traefik v2 & HA-Proxy & Nginx (Default)
  • Container Runtime: Containerd (Default) & Docker
  • Certificats: Self Signed PKI using OpenSSL
  • Storage: OpenEBS
  • Monitoring: Prometheus/Grafana/node-Exporter
  • CNI plugin: Kube-router, Calico (Alpha)
  • MetalLB (ARP mode for external LB)
  • Metrics-Server
  • Kubernetes-Dashboard

This project is currently under active development so other customizable options will be added soon.

How to install

We regularly use a machine to deploy every cluster. We only use it for deployment.

Setup

On the "deployment" node

Execute this command in order to install Ansible and clone the repository :

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ilkilab/agorakube-core/master/setup-deploy.sh)

On the K8S nodes

Execute this command on each node to update them and install the last version of Python :

bash <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ilkilab/agorakube-core/master/setup-hosts.sh)

Installation instructions

To deploy your K8S cluster follow these instructions.
