An application, cluster, or repository can be created In ArgoCD from its WebUI, CLI, or by writing a Kubernetes manifest that then can be passed to kubectl to create resources. For example, Applications are Kubernetes CustomResources and described in Kubernetes CRD applications.argoproj.io: And are accessible in ArgoCD’s namespaces as common Kubernetes resources: Such an approach… Read More »
ArgoCD has two types of users – local, that are set in the argocd-cm ConfigMap, and SSO. Below, we will speak about local user management, and in the next chapter will see how to integrate ArgoCD and Okta, because local users can’t be grouped in groups. See the documentation on the Local users/accounts page. For… Read More »
During applications deploy from a Helm chart described in the Istio: shared Ingress/AWS ALB, Helm chart with conditions, Istio, and ExternalDNS we are getting the “spec.ports[0].nodePort: Forbidden: may not be used when `type` is ‘ClusterIP’” error. Let’s reproduce it and find solutions with kubectl and Helm to solve it. The “spec.ports[0].nodePort: Forbidden: may not be… Read More »
Let’s proceed with our journey with Istio. Previous parts: Istio: an overview and running Service Mesh in Kubernetes Istio: external AWS Application LoadBalancer and Istio Ingress Gateway Besides Istio, in this post, we will also configure ExternalDNS, see the Kubernetes: update AWS Route53 DNS from an Ingress for details. Everything described below is a kind… Read More »
During starting a pod we got errors “SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] Connection refused’” in two different applications – a РНР/Yii and NodeJS. In the РHР/Yii it’s coming when we are running a pre-install hook during deployment with Helm and on the MySQL Migration Job execution: Yii Migration Tool (based on Yii v2.0.38)Exception ‘yii\db\Exception’ with message ‘SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002]… Read More »
On our AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service Dev cluster, we got a couple of namespaees hanging i nthe Termination state. “401 Unauthorized”, response: “Unauthorized” Remembering a similar issue where the root cause was the metrics-server (see the Kubernetes: namespace hangs in Terminating and metrics-server non-obviousness post for details), the first thing I did was to check… Read More »
In the previous post, Istio: an overview and running Service Mesh in Kubernetes, we started Istion io AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service and got an overview of its main components. The next task is to add an AWS Application Load Balancer (ALB) before Istio Ingress Gateway because Istio Gateway Service with its default type LoadBalancer creates… Read More »
In our Deployments, we are using the NodeLocal DNS as a local DNS cache to reduce requests number to the AWS VPC DNS, see the Kubernetes: load-testing and high-load tuning – problems and solutions for details. Currently, a manifest looks like the next: … dnsPolicy: “None” dnsConfig: nameservers: – 169.254.20.10 … The problem is, that… Read More »
Istio is a Service Mesh solution that allows performing Service Discovery, Load Balancing, traffic control, canary rollouts and blue-green deployments, traffic monitoring between microservices. We will use Istio in our AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service for traffic monitoring, as an API Gateway service, for traffic policies, and for various deployment strategies. In this post, will speak… Read More »
We have an ExternalDNS service running, see the Kubernetes: update AWS Route53 DNS from an Ingress post, which started sending a lot of messages like: msg=”failed to list resource records sets for zone /hostedzone/Z2VM3W5SRY4I9J: Throttling: \n\tstatus code: 400 And even AWS Console in the Route53 says “Throttling error that was caused because API rate was… Read More »
