    Setup an HA kubernetes cluster on Bare Metal

    As for resources, to be honest I'm searching all over the place... I do keep a copy of Kubernetes in Action (second edition coming soon :-)) handy for clear explanations of internals, I liked Cloud Native DevOps with Kubernetes a lot for the "big-picture" stuff and production tested alternatives that they suggest but what is missing (or I am missing) as we discussed is something like Kubernetes in Action but for the cloud building part (not once you got it running). Just me and Opensource youtube channel has been suggested here as well and I find it very helpful. Some repos also like this guy (also has a resources part on top) but I find it hard to get some solid answers that are not bits and pieces. I have also joined the Kubernetes slack but the posts are endless and hard to track on a daily basis. So...this has been my journey. haha.

  • metallb

    A network load-balancer implementation for Kubernetes using standard routing protocols

    We need to take care of HA, service Load Balancing, cert management, security, backups, monitoring, logging, a CNI suitable for our needs of course and so on. And then you have the "beta" disclaimer (for example for MetalLB) so how do you find something that you can be confident that will work in production and that you'll get support for? That's why I am beginning to think that doing everything from scratch and especially when we're talking about production clusters, may not be realistic at some point.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
