The following document describes the development of a _cloud native_ [Cassandra](http://cassandra.apache.org/) deployment on Kubernetes. When we say _cloud native_ we mean an application which understands that it is running within a cluster manager, and uses this cluster management infrastructure to help implement the application. In particular, in this instance, a custom Cassandra ```SeedProvider``` is used to enable Cassandra to dynamically discover new Cassandra nodes as they join the cluster.
This document also attempts to describe the core components of Kubernetes, _Pods_, _Services_ and _Replication Controllers_.

### Prerequisites
This example assumes that you have a Kubernetes cluster installed and running, and that you have installed the ```kubectl``` command line tool somewhere in your path. Please see the [getting started](https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes/tree/master/docs/getting-started-guides) for installation instructions for your platform.

### Simple Single Pod Cassandra Node
In Kubernetes, the atomic unit of an application is a [_Pod_](http://docs.k8s.io/pods.md). A Pod is one or more containers that _must_ be scheduled onto the same host. All containers in a pod share a network namespace, and may optionally share mounted volumes. In this simple case, we define a single container running Cassandra for our pod:

### Adding a Cassandra Service
In Kubernetes a _Service_ describes a set of Pods that perform the same task. For example, the set of nodes in a Cassandra cluster, or even the single node we created above. An important use for a Service is to create a load balancer which distributes traffic across members of the set. But a _Service_ can also be used as a standing query which makes a dynamically changing set of Pods (or the single Pod we've already created) available via the Kubernetes API. This is the way that we use initially use Services with Cassandra.

### Adding replicated nodes
Of course, a single node cluster isn't particularly interesting. The real power of Kubernetes and Cassandra lies in easily building a replicated, scalable Cassandra cluster.
In Kubernetes a _Replication Controller_ is responsible for replicating sets of identical pods. Like a _Service_ it has a selector query which identifies the members of it's set. Unlike a _Service_ it also has a desired number of replicas, and it will create or delete _Pods_ to ensure that the number of _Pods_ matches up with it's desired state.

Replication Controllers will "adopt" existing pods that match their selector query, so let's create a Replication Controller with a single replica to adopt our existing Cassandra Pod.
