Summary

This lesson has focussed on getting the K3s cluster set up and hopefully by this point each group has:

  • Built a Raspberry Pi Kubernetes cluster using K3s
  • Added worker nodes to the cluster
  • Verified cluster health with kubectl
  • Explored namespaces, pods, resources, and storage

By the end of the session you should be comfortable with the options for accessing your cluster nodes, the basic use of kubectl, and the set up to allow easy inspection of Kubernetes resources. All the basics for managing a small Kubernetes cluster.

In the next lesson we will go through a number of example deployments to explore topics of networking and monitoring, resource management and recovery, persistent storage and job/batch execution.
