I managed finally to set up several VMs and connect them into kubernetes cluster so I can learn that tech properly. I come from one or two layers below, I’ve been Linux admin who touched Ansible and did some open stack ocherstration but never had opportunity to go higher due to the project specific issues. So here I am, in theory a senior, learning popular tech which is required from juniors. Humbling experience, and NGL after 30 it’s getting harder, but it’s still fun.

For details if anyone is interested I made six vms, one serves haproxy, two are worker VM, three are controller. They are connected into network, and I run kubespray to create cluster from that. All localhost which is nice. I make small readme on it to later format and put ^^ I had issues with set up like WSL having python3.8 and kubespray refusing to find pip deps, which I figure more people might encounter if they experiment. And as admin, for me it was always the greatest hussle to setup the toolset, all later steps are a breeze compared.

Kubernetes seems cool :3
