ILKILABS KUBERNETES ENGINE

This project is aimed to provide the simplest way to install kubernetes on AMD-64 bare-metal, virtual & Cloud environments. Currently, Ubuntu 18.04 & 20.04, Centos 7 and Debian 10 are supported, but several other operating systems will be available soon.

Master branch is stable.

This is a list of points that will be explained in this Readme file for the IKE project :

What is ILKE

ILKE is an easy-to-use, stable Kubernetes distribution (Kubernetes v1.15, 1.16, 1.17, 1.18, 1.19, 1.20, 1.21).

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

ILKE 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 (Jiva and HostPath). Note: NOT SUPPORTED WITH K8S v1.21
Monitoring: Prometheus/Grafana/node-Exporter
CNI plugin: Kube-router, Calico (VxLAN Cross-Subnet)
MetalLB (L2/ARP mode for external LB)
Metrics-Server
Kubernetes-Dashboard
Kubernetes ConfigMap and Secret Reloader
Logrotate

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