Kubernetes Is Starting Docker For Mac Preferences And

You can now run a single-node Kubernetes cluster from the Kubernetes Pane in Docker For Mac Preferences and use kubectl commands as well as docker commands.

This means that there is no need of installing Kubectl or related Kubernetes CLI commands.

It is ready-to-use platform which gives developers a simple and fast way to build and test Kubernetes apps locally with the latest and greatest Docker.

To use Minikube, one needed a hypervisor and a container solution as well as the Kubernetes command-line tool called kubectl.

Now these tools has to be manually installed on your LinuxMacOS.

Kubernetes Is Starting Docker Update Your Docker

Just update your Docker for Mac to 17.12 release and there you have ready-to-use single node Kubernetes cluster already up and running.

When Kubernetes support is enabled, you can deploy your workloads, in parallel, on Kubernetes, Swarm, and as standalone containers.

Enabling or disabling the Kubernetes server does not affect your other workloads.

If you look at the technical definition of orchestration in wikipedia, it is all about the execution of a defined workflow: first do X, then Y, then Z.

But in contrast, Kubernetes is comprised of a set of independent, composable control processes that continuously drive the current state towards the provided desired state.

For anyone who want to configure a Docker dev environment and build, test and debug containerized apps, Docker for Mac is a great platform to get started with.

Kubernetes Is Starting Docker How To Build A

Under this blog post, I will show how to build a simple Web Application Server running on a Single Node K8s cluster.

We will start with a clean MacOS system, hence there is no POD, no deployment and just default Kubernetes service running on your machine.

For example, a simple web server pod might be defined as such.

I bagged 2 special awards last year(2019): Firstly, The Tip of Captains Hat Award at Dockercon 2019, San Francisco and secondly, 2019 Docker Community Award.

I run Collabnix Community Slack with over 4700 audience as well as Redis Community Slack with close to 500 members.

I have built popular GITHUB repositories like DockerLabs, KubeLabs, Kubetools, RedisPlanet Terraform etc.

Currently working as Developer Relations Manager at Redis Labs where I help customers and community members adopt Redis.

With over 11,000 followers over LinkedIn close to 4800 twitter followers, I like sharing Docker and Kubernetes related content.
