Each object in your cluster has a Name that is unique for that type of resource. Every Kubernetes object also has a UID that is unique across your whole cluster. For example, you can only have one Pod named myapp-1234 within the same namespace, but you can have one Pod and one Deployment that are each named myapp-1234. For non-unique user-provided attributes, Kubernetes provides labels and annotations. Names A client-provided string that refers to an object in a resource URL, such as /api/v1/...| Kubernetes
This document describes the concept of a StorageClass in Kubernetes. Familiarity with volumes and persistent volumes is suggested. A StorageClass provides a way for administrators to describe the classes of storage they offer. Different classes might map to quality-of-service levels, or to backup policies, or to arbitrary policies determined by the cluster administrators. Kubernetes itself is unopinionated about what classes represent. The Kubernetes concept of a storage class is similar to ...| Kubernetes
This page describes running Kubernetes across multiple zones. Background Kubernetes is designed so that a single Kubernetes cluster can run across multiple failure zones, typically where these zones fit within a logical grouping called a region. Major cloud providers define a region as a set of failure zones (also called availability zones) that provide a consistent set of features: within a region, each zone offers the same APIs and services.| Kubernetes
Kubernetes reserves all labels, annotations and taints in the kubernetes.io and k8s.io namespaces. This document serves both as a reference to the values and as a coordination point for assigning values. Labels, annotations and taints used on API objects apf.kubernetes.io/autoupdate-spec Type: Annotation Example: apf.kubernetes.io/autoupdate-spec: "true" Used on: FlowSchema and PriorityLevelConfiguration Objects If this annotation is set to true on a FlowSchema or PriorityLevelConfiguration, ...| Kubernetes
This document describes persistent volumes in Kubernetes. Familiarity with volumes, StorageClasses and VolumeAttributesClasses is suggested. Introduction Managing storage is a distinct problem from managing compute instances. The PersistentVolume subsystem provides an API for users and administrators that abstracts details of how storage is provided from how it is consumed. To do this, we introduce two new API resources: PersistentVolume and PersistentVolumeClaim. A PersistentVolume (PV) is a...| Kubernetes
This page provides an overview of admission controllers. An admission controller is a piece of code that intercepts requests to the Kubernetes API server prior to persistence of the resource, but after the request is authenticated and authorized. Several important features of Kubernetes require an admission controller to be enabled in order to properly support the feature. As a result, a Kubernetes API server that is not properly configured with the right set of admission controllers is an in...| Kubernetes
