Overview of rke
rke is the easiest way to install a Kubernetes cluster. The only things you need are the rke binary, a cluster.yml file describing your cluster and one or more machines. After running rke up, your cluster will be built and only a few mins later it is ready to be used.
rke can use any machine to build a Kubernetes cluster. You can provide any machine (in the cloud, local virtual machines or on-premise), as long as it is reachable through SSH, and has a supported version of Docker installed. After assigning one or more roles to one or more machines, rke will build your cluster accordingly.
Requirements
- a Linux or MacOS machine to run the
rke binary
- one or more Linux machines to be used in your Kubernetes cluster with Docker installed and at least 1 core and 1GB of RAM
- Port TCP/6443 opened between the machine running
rke and the machine functioning as controlplane.
