Kubernetes The Hard Way - Proxmox (KVM)

This tutorial walks you through setting up Kubernetes the hard way. This guide is not for people looking for a fully automated command to bring up a Kubernetes cluster. If that's you then check out Google Kubernetes Engine, or the Getting Started Guides.

Kubernetes The Hard Way is optimized for learning, which means taking the long route to ensure you understand each task required to bootstrap a Kubernetes cluster.

The results of this tutorial should not be viewed as production ready, and may receive limited support from the community, but don't let that stop you from learning!

Target Audience

The target audience for this tutorial is someone planning to support a production Kubernetes cluster and wants to understand how everything fits together, in particular if you want to use a Proxmox hypervisor (or KVM).

Cluster Details

Kubernetes The Hard Way guides you through bootstrapping a highly available Kubernetes cluster with end-to-end encryption between components and RBAC authentication.

Labs

This tutorial assumes you have access to a Proxmox hypervisor with at least 26GB free RAM and 100GB free HDD/SSD. While a Proxmox server is used for basic infrastructure requirements the lessons learned in this tutorial can be applied to other platforms (ESXi, KVM, VirtualBox, ...).
