如何跨越 Kubernetes 学习曲线
======
> Kubernetes 就像一辆翻斗车。它非常适合解决它所针对的问题,但你必须首先掌握其学习曲线。

在[为什么说 Kubernetes 是一辆翻斗车][2]中,我谈到了一个工具如何优雅地解决它所设计用来解决的问题 —— 只是你要学会如何使用它。在本系列的第 2 部分中,我将更深入地了解 Kubernetes 的学习曲线。
[Kubernetes][3] 的旅程通常从在一台主机上运行一个容器开始。你可以快速了解运行新版本软件的难易程度,与其他人分享该软件的难易程度,以及对于这些用户按照你预期方式运行它的难易程度。
但是你需要:
* 两个容器
* 两个主机
使用容器在端口 80 上启动一个 Web 服务器很容易,但是当你需要在端口 80 上启动第二个容器时会发生什么?当你构建生产环境时,需要容器化 Web 服务器在发生故障时转移到第二个主机时会发生什么?在任何一种情况下,这个答案简单来说就是你必须采用容器编排。
当你开始处理两个容器或两个主机问题时,你将不可避免地引入了复杂性,因此,这就是一个学习曲线。这个两个服务(容器的更通用说法)或两个主机的问题已经存在了很长时间,并且由此带来了复杂性。
从历史上看,这将涉及负载均衡、集群软件甚至集群文件系统。每个服务的配置逻辑都嵌入在每个系统(负载均衡、集群软件和文件系统)中。在负载平衡器后运行 60 或 70 个集群的服务是复杂的。添加另一个新服务也很复杂。更糟糕的是,撤下服务简直是一场噩梦。回想起我对生产环境中的 MySQL 和 Apache 服务器进行故障排除的日子,这些服务器的逻辑嵌入在三、四个或五个不同的地方,所有这些都采用不同的格式,让我头疼不已。
Kubernetes 使用一个软件优雅地解决了所有这些问题:
1. 两项服务(容器):✅
2. 两台服务器(高可用性):✅
3. 单一配置来源:✅
4. 标准配置格式:✅
5. 网络:✅
6. 储存:✅
7. 依赖关系(什么服务与哪些数据库对应):✅
8. 易于配置:✅
9. 轻松取消配置:✅(也许是 Kubernetes **最**强大的部分)
等等,这样初看起来 Kubernetes 非常优雅、非常强大。 **没错。**你可以在 Kubernetes 中建模一整个微型 IT 世界。
![Kubernetes business model][4]
所以,是的,就像开始使用巨型翻斗车(或任何专业设备)时,有一个学习曲线。使用 Kubernetes 还有一个学习曲线,但它值得,因为你可以用一个工具解决这么多问题。如果你对学习曲线感到担忧,请仔细考虑 IT 基础架构中的所有底层网络、存储和安全问题,并设想一下今天的解决方案 —— 这并不容易。特别是当你越来越快地引入越来越多的服务时。速度是当今的目标,因此要特别考虑配置和取消配置问题。
但是,不要混淆了建造或配置 Kubernetes 的学习曲线为你的翻斗车挑选合适的挡泥板可能很难LOL和使用它的学习曲线。学习用如此多的不同层次容器引擎、日志记录、监控、服务网格、存储、网络的技术来建立自己的 Kubernetes 有很多不同的选择,还有每六个月维护每个组件的更新选择,这可能不值得投资 —— 但学会使用它绝对是值得的。
我每天都与 Kubernetes 和容器泡在一起,即使这样我都很难跟踪几乎每天都在宣布的所有重大新项目。 但是,每一天我都对使用单一工具来模拟整个 IT 多个方面的运营优势感到兴奋。此外,记住 Kubernetes 已经成熟了很多,并将继续发展下去。与之前的 Linux 和 OpenStack 一样,每一层的接口和事实上的项目都将成熟并变得更容易选择。
在本系列的第三篇文章中,我将深入挖掘你在驾驶 Kubernetes “卡车”之前需要了解的内容。

How to navigate the Kubernetes learning curve
======
Kubernetes is like a dump truck. It's elegant for solving the problems
it's designed for, but you have to master the learning curve first.
![Dump truck rounding a turn in the road][1]
In _[Kubernetes is a dump truck][2]_, I talked about how a tool can be elegant for the problem it was designed to solve—once you learn how to use it. In part 2 of this series, I'm going a little deeper into the Kubernetes' learning curve.
The journey to [Kubernetes][3] often starts with running one container on one host. You quickly discover how easy it is to run new versions of software, how easy it is to share that software with others, and how easy it is for those users to run it the way you intended.
But then you need
* Two containers
* Two hosts
It's easy to fire up one web server on port 80 with a container, but what happens when you need to fire up a second container on port 80? What happens when you are building a production environment and you need the containerized web server to fail over to a second host? The short answer, in either case, is you have to move into container orchestration.
Inevitably, when you start to handle the two containers or two hosts problem, you'll introduce complexity and, hence, a learning curve. The two services (a more generalized version of a container) / two hosts problem has been around for a long time and has always introduced complexity.
Historically, this would have involved load balancers, clustering software, and even clustered file systems. Configuration logic for every service is embedded in every system (load balancers, cluster software, and file systems). Running 60 or 70 services, clustered, behind load balancers is complex. Adding another new service is also complex. Worse, decommissioning a service is a nightmare. Thinking back on my days of troubleshooting production MySQL and Apache servers with logic embedded in three, four, or five different places, all in different formats, still makes my head hurt.
Kubernetes elegantly solves all these problems with one piece of software:
1. Two services (containers): Check
2. Two servers (high availability): Check
3. Single source of configuration: Check
4. Standard configuration format: Check
5. Networking: Check
6. Storage: Check
7. Dependencies (what services talk to what databases): Check
8. Easy provisioning: Check
9. Easy de-provisioning: Check (perhaps Kubernetes' _most_ powerful piece)
Wait, it's starting to look like Kubernetes is pretty elegant and pretty powerful. _It is._ You can model an entire miniature IT universe in Kubernetes.
![Kubernetes business model][4]
So yes, there is a learning curve when starting to use a giant dump truck (or any professional equipment). There's also a learning curve to use Kubernetes, but it's worth it because you can solve so many problems with one tool. If you are apprehensive about the learning curve, think through all the underlying networking, storage, and security problems in IT infrastructure and envision their solutions today—they're not easier. Especially when you introduce more and more services, faster and faster. Velocity is the goal nowadays, so give special consideration to the provisioning and de-provisioning problem.
But don't confuse the learning curve for building or equipping Kubernetes (picking the right mud flaps for your dump truck can be hard, LOL) with the learning curve for using it. Learning to build your own Kubernetes with so many different choices at so many different layers (container engine, logging, monitoring, service mesh, storage, networking), and then maintaining updated selections of each component every six months, might not be worth the investment—but learning to use it is absolutely worth it.
I eat, sleep, and breathe Kubernetes and containers every day, and even I struggle to keep track of all the major new projects announced literally almost every day. But there isn't a day that I'm not excited about the operational benefits of having a single tool to model an entire IT miniverse. Also, remember Kubernetes has matured a ton and will continue to do so. Like Linux and OpenStack before it, the interfaces and de facto projects at each layer will mature and become easier to select.
In the third article in this series, I'll dig into what you need to know before you drive your Kubernetes "truck."
