Deploy Nginx Web Server on Kubernetes Cluster

Question : Some of the Nautilus team developers are developing a static website and they want to deploy it on Kubernetes cluster. They want it to be highly available and scalable. Therefore, based on the requirements, the DevOps team has decided to create deployment for it with multiple replicas. Below you can find more details about it:

Create a deployment using nginx image with latest tag only and remember to mention tag i.e nginx:latest and name it as nginx-deployment. App labels should be app: nginx-app and type: front-end. The container should be named as nginx-container; also make sure replica counts are 3.

Also create a service named nginx-service and type NodePort. The targetPort should be 80 and nodePort should be 30011.

Note: The kubectl utility on jump_host has been configured to work with the kubernetes cluster.

Please Note :-  Perform the below commands based on your question  server,  user name & other details might differ . So please read task carefully before executing. All the Best 👍

Solution:  

1. At first  check existing deployment and  pods running status   

    kubectl get namespace

    kubectl get pods

2.  Create YAML  file with all the parameters, you can copy form GitLab

    https://gitlab.com/nb-tech-support/devops.git

    ( Refer Below Video for more clarity )

thor@jump_host /$ vi /tmp/nginx.yml thor@jump_host /$ cat /tmp/nginx.yml apiVersion: v1 kind: Service metadata:   name: nginx-service spec:   type: NodePort   selector:     app: nginx-app     type: front-end   ports:     - port: 80       targetPort: 80       nodePort: 30011 --- apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment metadata:   name: nginx-deployment   labels:     app: nginx-app     type: front-end spec:   replicas: 3   selector:     matchLabels:       app: nginx-app       type: front-end   template:     metadata:       labels:         app: nginx-app         type: front-end     spec:       containers:         - name: nginx-container           image: nginx:latest thor@jump_host /$

 3. Run below command to create pod 

thor@jump_host /$ kubectl create -f /tmp/nginx.yml service/nginx-service created deployment/nginx-deployment created thor@jump_host /$

 4.  Wait for pods to get running status 

thor@jump_host /$ kubectl get pods NAME        READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE nginx-deployment-56cdb5d774-49rqs      1/1     Running   0          34s nginx-deployment-56cdb5d774-6q8b2     1/1     Running   0          34s nginx-deployment-56cdb5d774-nfwfp      1/1     Running   0          34s thor@jump_host /$

5.  Validate the task by running below command 

 kubectl exec nginx-deployment-56cdb5d774-49rqs  -- curl http://localhost

 6.  Click on Finish & Confirm to complete the task successfully
