Hi all!

I've a background as Linux sysadmin (not much, couple of years) and I'm facing the challenge to setup a Kubernetes cluster.

One of the requirements is to use Traefik.

I'm finding A LOT of how to online but they are all different from each other.

Do you know a good guide to do such things? The K8s cluster is up and running, Traefik is the problem.

I can get it up, access the dashboard, but that's all. I tried to test it using the example application "whoami" and I can see the app in the dashboard but I can access it only by localhost curl on the node where it runs.

Thanks a lot!

How is it about the reverse proxy like traefik? Are you using nginx ingress with k3s?

Sorry for the many questions! Thanks!

Is k3s good for production?

Nice to know that I'm not the only one having this experience

Thanks for the reply!

I also have a background as Linux Sysadmin but barely a couple of years.

I have managed to get a Kubernets cluster up and running but I have difficult setting up containers. The Classic "whoami" works flawless by Traefik for example, but doing the same for Portainer seems like impossibile for me right now, going crazy :D

I'm i choosing a difficult path? Is it possibile to have a good K8s cluster running nice without traefik?

Thanks!

 

Hi all!

I have a couple of months to create and deploy a small cluster for running docker containers.

The cluster will consist of 3 master nodes and some workers. When it is ready, it will consist of about 15 servers.

I have little experience with Docker (managing some containers on my home server), I have spent the last 4 or 5 weeks studying and testing with Kubernetes and I think it's a little overkill for what it's going to take. You run the risk of adding unnecessary complexity.

I am seeing that instead Docker Swarm seems easier to set up and manage.

To consider that I will be on my own to manage it.

What do you think?

Thanks!
