Bitnami Kubernetes Production Runtime

Description

The Bitnami Kubernetes Production Runtime (BKPR) is a collection of services that makes it easy to run production workloads in Kubernetes.

Think of Bitnami Kubernetes Production Runtime as a curated collection of the services you would need to deploy on top of your Kubernetes cluster to enable logging, monitoring, certificate management, automatic discovery of Kubernetes resources via public DNS servers and other common infrastructure needs.

BKPR is available for Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) and Amazon Elastic Container Service for Kubernetes (Amazon EKS) clusters.

License

BKPR is licensed under the Apache License Version 2.0.

Requirements

BKPR has been tested to work on a bare-minimum Kubernetes cluster with three kubelet nodes with 2 CPUs and 8GiB of RAM each.

Kubernetes version support matrix

The following matrix shows which Kubernetes versions and platforms are supported:

BKPR release	AKS versions	GKE versions	EKS versions
`1.3`	`1.11`-`1.12`	`1.11`-`1.12`	`1.11`
`1.4`	`1.14`-`1.15`	`1.14`-`1.15`	`1.14`
`1.5`	`1.14`-`1.15`	`1.14`-`1.15`	`1.14`-`1.15`
`1.6`	`1.15`-`1.16`	`1.15`-`1.16`	`1.15`-`1.16`
`1.7`	`1.16`-`1.17`	`1.16`-`1.17`	`1.16`-`1.17`

Note that the (experimental) generic platform is e2e tested on GKE.

Quickstart

Please use the installation guide to install the kubeprod binary before installing BKPR to your cluster.

Components

BKPR leverages the following components to achieve its mission. For more in-depth documentation about them please read the components documentation.

Logging stack

Elasticsearch: A distributed, RESTful search and analytics engine
Fluentd: A data collector for unified logging layer
Kibana: A visualization tool for Elasticsearch data

Monitoring stack

Prometheus: A monitoring system and time series database
Alertmanager: An alert manager and router
Grafana: An open source metric analytics & visualization suite

Ingress stack

NGINX Ingress Controller: A Controller to satisfy requests for Ingress objects
cert-manager: A Kubernetes add-on to automate the management and issuance of TLS certificates from various sources
OAuth2 Proxy: A reverse proxy and static file server that provides authentication using Providers (Google, GitHub, and others) to validate accounts by email, domain or group
ExternalDNS: A component to synchronize exposed Kubernetes Services and Ingresses with DNS providers
