>>all right, We're five minutes after the hour. That's all aboard. Who's coming aboard? Welcome everyone to the tutorial track for our launchpad of them. So for the next couple of hours, we've got a SYRIZA videos and experts on hand to answer questions about our new product, Doctor Enterprise Container Cloud. Before we jump into the videos and the technology, I just want to introduce myself and my other emcee for the session. I'm Bill Milks. I run curriculum development for Mirant us on. And >>I'm Bruce Basil Matthews. I'm the Western regional Solutions architect for Moran Tissue esa and welcome to everyone to this lovely launchpad oven event. >>We're lucky to have you with us proof. At least somebody on the call knows something about your enterprise Computer club. Um, speaking of people that know about Dr Enterprise Container Cloud, make sure that you've got a window open to the chat for this session. We've got a number of our engineers available and on hand to answer your questions live as we go through these videos and disgusting problem. So that's us, I guess, for Dr Enterprise Container Cloud, this is Mirant asses brand new product for bootstrapping Doctor Enterprise Kubernetes clusters at scale Anything. The airport Abu's? >>No, just that I think that we're trying Thio. Uh, let's see. Hold on. I think that we're trying Teoh give you a foundation against which to give this stuff a go yourself. And that's really the key to this thing is to provide some, you know, many training and education in a very condensed period. So, >>yeah, that's exactly what you're going to see. The SYRIZA videos we have today. We're going to focus on your first steps with Dr Enterprise Container Cloud from installing it to bootstrapping your regional child clusters so that by the end of the tutorial content today, you're gonna be prepared to spin up your first documentary prize clusters using documented prize container class. So just a little bit of logistics for the session. We're going to run through these tutorials twice. We're gonna do one run through starting seven minutes ago up until I guess it will be ten fifteen Pacific time. Then we're gonna run through the whole thing again. So if you've got other colleagues that weren't able to join right at the top of the hour and would like to jump in from the beginning, ten. Fifteen Pacific time. We're gonna do the whole thing over again. So if you want to see the videos twice, you got public friends and colleagues that, you know you wanna pull in for a second chance to see this stuff, we're gonna do it all. All twice. Yeah, this session. Any any logistics I should add, Bruce that No, >>I think that's that's pretty much what we had to nail down here. But let's zoom dash into those, uh, feature films. >>Let's do Edmonds. And like I said, don't be shy. Feel free to ask questions in the chat or engineers and boosting myself are standing by to answer your questions. So let me just tee up the first video here and walk their cost. Yeah. Mhm. Yes. Sorry. And here we go. So our first video here is gonna be about installing the Doctor Enterprise Container Club Management cluster. So I like to think of the management cluster as like your mothership, right? This is what you're gonna use to deploy all those little child clusters that you're gonna use is like, Come on it as clusters downstream. So the management costs was always our first step. Let's jump in there >>now. We have to give this brief little pause >>with no good day video. Focus for this demo will be the initial bootstrap of the management cluster in the first regional clusters to support AWS deployments. The management cluster provides the core functionality, including identity management, authentication, infantry release version. The regional cluster provides the specific architecture provided in this case, eight of us and the Elsie um, components on the UCP Cluster Child cluster is the cluster or clusters being deployed and managed. The deployment is broken up into five phases. The first phase is preparing a big strap note on this dependencies on handling with download of the bridge struck tools. The second phase is obtaining America's license file. Third phase. Prepare the AWS credentials instead of the adduce environment. The fourth configuring the deployment, defining things like the machine types on the fifth phase. Run the bootstrap script and wait for the deployment to complete. Okay, so here we're sitting up the strap node, just checking that it's clean and clear and ready to go there. No credentials already set up on that particular note. Now we're just checking through AWS to make sure that the account we want to use we have the correct credentials on the correct roles set up and validating that there are no instances currently set up in easy to instance, not completely necessary, but just helps keep things clean and tidy when I am perspective. Right. So next step, we're just going to check that we can, from the bootstrap note, reach more antis, get to the repositories where the various components of the system are available. They're good. No areas here. Yeah, right now we're going to start sitting at the bootstrap note itself. So we're downloading the cars release, get get cars, script, and then next, we're going to run it. I'm in. Deploy it. Changing into that big struck folder. Just making see what's there. Right now we have no license file, so we're gonna get the license filed. Oh, okay. Get the license file through the more antis downloads site, signing up here, downloading that license file and putting it into the Carisbrook struck folder. Okay, Once we've done that, we can now go ahead with the rest of the deployment. See that the follow is there. Uh, huh? That's again checking that we can now reach E C two, which is extremely important for the deployment. Just validation steps as we move through the process. All right, The next big step is valid in all of our AWS credentials. So the first thing is, we need those route credentials which we're going to export on the command line. This is to create the necessary bootstrap user on AWS credentials for the completion off the deployment we're now running an AWS policy create. So it is part of that is creating our Food trucks script, creating the mystery policy files on top of AWS, Just generally preparing the environment using a cloud formation script you'll see in a second will give a new policy confirmations just waiting for it to complete. Yeah, and there is done. It's gonna have a look at the AWS console. You can see that we're creative completed. Now we can go and get the credentials that we created Today I am console. Go to that new user that's being created. We'll go to the section on security credentials and creating new keys. Download that information media Access key I D and the secret access key. We went, Yeah, usually then exported on the command line. Okay. Couple of things to Notre. Ensure that you're using the correct AWS region on ensure that in the conflict file you put the correct Am I in for that region? I'm sure you have it together in a second. Yes. Okay, that's the key. Secret X key. Right on. Let's kick it off. Yeah, So this process takes between thirty and forty five minutes. Handles all the AWS dependencies for you, and as we go through, the process will show you how you can track it. Andi will start to see things like the running instances being created on the west side. The first phase off this whole process happening in the background is the creation of a local kind based bootstrapped cluster on the bootstrap node that clusters then used to deploy and manage all the various instances and configurations within AWS. At the end of the process, that cluster is copied into the new cluster on AWS and then shut down that local cluster essentially moving itself over. Okay. Local clusters boat just waiting for the various objects to get ready. Standard communities objects here Okay, so we speed up this process a little bit just for demonstration purposes. Yeah. There we go. So first note is being built the best in host. Just jump box that will allow us access to the entire environment. Yeah, In a few seconds, we'll see those instances here in the US console on the right. Um, the failures that you're seeing around failed to get the I. P for Bastian is just the weight state while we wait for a W s to create the instance. Okay. Yes. Here, beauty there. Okay. Mhm. Okay. Yeah, yeah. Okay. On there. We got question. Host has been built on three instances for the management clusters have now been created. We're going through the process of preparing. Those nodes were now copying everything over. See that? The scaling up of controllers in the big Strap cluster? It's indicating that we're starting all of the controllers in the new question. Almost there. Yeah. Yeah, just waiting for key. Clark. Uh huh. Start to finish up. Yeah. No. What? Now we're shutting down control this on the local bootstrap node on preparing our I. D. C. Configuration. Fourth indication, soon as this is completed. Last phase will be to deploy stack light into the new cluster the last time Monitoring tool set way Go stack like to plan It has started. Mhm coming to the end of the deployment Mountain. Yeah, America. Final phase of the deployment. Onda, We are done. Okay, You'll see. At the end they're providing us the details of you. I log in so there's a keeper clogging. You can modify that initial default password is part of the configuration set up with one documentation way. Go Councils up way can log in. Yeah, yeah, thank you very much for watching. >>Excellent. So in that video are wonderful field CTO Shauna Vera bootstrapped up management costume for Dr Enterprise Container Cloud Bruce, where exactly does that leave us? So now we've got this management costume installed like what's next? >>So primarily the foundation for being able to deploy either regional clusters that will then allow you to support child clusters. Uh, comes into play the next piece of what we're going to show, I think with Sean O'Mara doing this is the child cluster capability, which allows you to then deploy your application services on the local cluster. That's being managed by the ah ah management cluster that we just created with the bootstrap. >>Right? So this cluster isn't yet for workloads. This is just for bootstrapping up the downstream clusters. Those or what we're gonna use for workings. >>Exactly. Yeah. And I just wanted to point out, since Sean O'Mara isn't around, toe, actually answer questions. I could listen to that guy. Read the phone book, and it would be interesting, but anyway, you can tell him I said that >>he's watching right now, Crusoe. Good. Um, cool. So and just to make sure I understood what Sean was describing their that bootstrap er knows that you, like, ran document fresh pretender Cloud from to begin with. That's actually creating a kind kubernetes deployment kubernetes and Docker deployment locally. That then hits the AWS a p i in this example that make those e c two instances, and it makes like a three manager kubernetes cluster there, and then it, like, copies itself over toe those communities managers. >>Yeah, and and that's sort of where the transition happens. You can actually see it. The output that when it says I'm pivoting, I'm pivoting from my local kind deployment of cluster AP, I toothy, uh, cluster, that's that's being created inside of AWS or, quite frankly, inside of open stack or inside of bare metal or inside of it. The targeting is, uh, abstracted. Yeah, but >>those air three environments that we're looking at right now, right? Us bare metal in open staff environments. So does that kind cluster on the bootstrap er go away afterwards. You don't need that afterwards. Yeah, that is just temporary. To get things bootstrapped, then you manage things from management cluster on aws in this example? >>Yeah. Yeah. The seed, uh, cloud that post the bootstrap is not required anymore. And there's no, uh, interplay between them after that. So that there's no dependencies on any of the clouds that get created thereafter. >>Yeah, that actually reminds me of how we bootstrapped doctor enterprise back in the day, be a temporary container that would bootstrap all the other containers. Go away. It's, uh, so sort of a similar, similar temporary transient bootstrapping model. Cool. Excellent. What will convict there? It looked like there wasn't a ton, right? It looked like you had to, like, set up some AWS parameters like credentials and region and stuff like that. But other than that, that looked like heavily script herbal like there wasn't a ton of point and click there. >>Yeah, very much so. It's pretty straightforward from a bootstrapping standpoint, The config file that that's generated the template is fairly straightforward and targeted towards of a small medium or large, um, deployment. And by editing that single file and then gathering license file and all of the things that Sean went through, um, that that it makes it fairly easy to script >>this. And if I understood correctly as well that three manager footprint for your management cluster, that's the minimum, right. We always insist on high availability for this management cluster because boy do not wanna see oh, >>right, right. And you know, there's all kinds of persistent data that needs to be available, regardless of whether one of the notes goes down or not. So we're taking care of all of that for you behind the scenes without you having toe worry about it as a developer. >>No, I think there's that's a theme that I think will come back to throughout the rest of this tutorial session today is there's a lot of there's a lot of expertise baked him to Dr Enterprise Container Cloud in terms of implementing best practices for you like the defaulter, just the best practices of how you should be managing these clusters, Miss Seymour. Examples of that is the day goes on. Any interesting questions you want to call out from the chap who's >>well, there was. Yeah, yeah, there was one that we had responded to earlier about the fact that it's a management cluster that then conduce oh, either the the regional cluster or a local child molester. The child clusters, in each case host the application services, >>right? So at this point, we've got, in some sense, like the simplest architectures for our documentary prize Container Cloud. We've got the management cluster, and we're gonna go straight with child cluster. In the next video, there's a more sophisticated architecture, which will also proper today that inserts another layer between those two regional clusters. If you need to manage regions like across a BS, reads across with these documents anything, >>yeah, that that local support for the child cluster makes it a lot easier for you to manage the individual clusters themselves and to take advantage of our observation. I'll support systems a stack light and things like that for each one of clusters locally, as opposed to having to centralize thumb >>eso. It's a couple of good questions. In the chat here, someone was asking for the instructions to do this themselves. I strongly encourage you to do so. That should be in the docks, which I think Dale helpfully thank you. Dale provided links for that's all publicly available right now. So just head on in, head on into the docks like the Dale provided here. You can follow this example yourself. All you need is a Mirante license for this and your AWS credentials. There was a question from many a hear about deploying this toe azure. Not at G. Not at this time. >>Yeah, although that is coming. That's going to be in a very near term release. >>I didn't wanna make promises for product, but I'm not too surprised that she's gonna be targeted. Very bracing. Cool. Okay. Any other thoughts on this one does. >>No, just that the fact that we're running through these individual pieces of the steps Well, I'm sure help you folks. If you go to the link that, uh, the gentleman had put into the chat, um, giving you the step by staff. Um, it makes it fairly straightforward to try this yourselves. >>E strongly encourage that, right? That's when you really start to internalize this stuff. OK, but before we move on to the next video, let's just make sure everyone has a clear picture in your mind of, like, where we are in the life cycle here creating this management cluster. Just stop me if I'm wrong. Who's creating this management cluster is like, you do that once, right? That's when your first setting up your doctor enterprise container cloud environment of system. What we're going to start seeing next is creating child clusters and this is what you're gonna be doing over and over and over again. When you need to create a cluster for this Deb team or, you know, this other team river it is that needs commodity. Doctor Enterprise clusters create these easy on half will. So this was once to set up Dr Enterprise Container Cloud Child clusters, which we're going to see next. We're gonna do over and over and over again. So let's go to that video and see just how straightforward it is to spin up a doctor enterprise cluster for work clothes as a child cluster. Undocumented brands contain >>Hello. In this demo, we will cover the deployment experience of creating a new child cluster, the scaling of the cluster and how to update the cluster. When a new version is available, we begin the process by logging onto the you I as a normal user called Mary. Let's go through the navigation of the U I so you can switch. Project Mary only has access to development. Get a list of the available projects that you have access to. What clusters have been deployed at the moment there. Nan Yes, this H Keys Associate ID for Mary into her team on the cloud credentials that allow you to create access the various clouds that you can deploy clusters to finally different releases that are available to us. We can switch from dark mode to light mode, depending on your preferences, Right? Let's now set up semester search keys for Mary so she can access the notes and machines again. Very simply, had Mississippi key give it a name, we copy and paste our public key into the upload key block. Or we can upload the key if we have the file available on our local machine. A simple process. So to create a new cluster, we define the cluster ad management nodes and add worker nodes to the cluster. Yeah, again, very simply, you go to the clusters tab. We hit the create cluster button. Give the cluster name. Yeah, Andi, select the provider. We only have access to AWS in this particular deployment, so we'll stick to AWS. What's like the region in this case? US West one release version five point seven is the current release Onda Attach. Mary's Key is necessary Key. We can then check the rest of the settings, confirming the provider Any kubernetes c r D r I p address information. We can change this. Should we wish to? We'll leave it default for now on. Then what components? A stack light I would like to deploy into my Custer. For this. I'm enabling stack light on logging on Aiken. Sit up the retention sizes Attention times on. Even at this stage, at any customer alerts for the watchdogs. E consider email alerting which I will need my smart host details and authentication details. Andi Slack Alerts. Now I'm defining the cluster. All that's happened is the cluster's been defined. I now need to add machines to that cluster. I'll begin by clicking the create machine button within the cluster definition. Oh, select manager, Select the number of machines. Three is the minimum. Select the instant size that I'd like to use from AWS and very importantly, ensure correct. Use the correct Am I for the region. I commend side on the route device size. There we go, my three machines obviously creating. I now need to add some workers to this custom. So I go through the same process this time once again, just selecting worker. I'll just add to once again, the AM is extremely important. Will fail if we don't pick the right, Am I for a boon to machine in this case and the deployment has started. We can go and check on the bold status are going back to the clusters screen on clicking on the little three dots on the right. We get the cluster info and the events, so the basic cluster info you'll see pending their listen cluster is still in the process of being built. We kick on, the events will get a list of actions that have been completed This part of the set up of the cluster. So you can see here we've created the VPC. We've created the sub nets on We've created the Internet gateway. It's unnecessary made of us and we have no warnings of the stage. Yeah, this will then run for a while. We have one minute past waken click through. We can check the status of the machine bulls as individuals so we can check the machine info, details of the machines that we've assigned, right? Mhm Onda. See any events pertaining to the machine areas like this one on normal? Yeah. Just watch asked. The community's components are waiting for the machines to start. Go back to Custer's. Okay, right. Because we're moving ahead now. We can see we have it in progress. Five minutes in new Matt Gateway on the stage. The machines have been built on assigned. I pick up the U. S. Thank you. Yeah. There we go. Machine has been created. See the event detail and the AWS. I'd for that machine. Mhm. No speeding things up a little bit. This whole process and to end takes about fifteen minutes. Run the clock forward, you'll notice is the machines continue to bold the in progress. We'll go from in progress to ready. A soon as we got ready on all three machines, the managers on both workers way could go on and we could see that now we reached the point where the cluster itself is being configured. Mhm, mhm. And then we go. Cluster has been deployed. So once the classes deployed, we can now never get around our environment. Okay, Are cooking into configure cluster We could modify their cluster. We could get the end points for alert alert manager on See here The griffon occupying and Prometheus are still building in the background but the cluster is available on you would be able to put workloads on it the stretch to download the cube conflict so that I can put workloads on it. It's again three little dots in the right for that particular cluster. If the download cube conflict give it my password, I now have the Q conflict file necessary so that I can access that cluster Mhm all right Now that the build is fully completed, we can check out cluster info on. We can see that Allow the satellite components have been built. All the storage is there, and we have access to the CPU. I So if we click into the cluster, we can access the UCP dashboard, right? Shit. Click the signing with Detroit button to use the SSO on. We give Mary's possible to use the name once again. Thing is, an unlicensed cluster way could license at this point. Or just skip it on. There. We have the UCP dashboard. You can see that has been up for a little while. We have some data on the dashboard going back to the console. We can now go to the griffon, a data just being automatically pre configured for us. We can switch and utilized a number of different dashboards that have already been instrumented within the cluster. So, for example, communities cluster information, the name spaces, deployments, nodes. Mhm. So we look at nodes. If we could get a view of the resource is utilization of Mrs Custer is very little running in it. Yeah. General dashboard of Cuba navies cluster one of this is configurable. You can modify these for your own needs, or add your own dashboards on de scoped to the cluster. So it is available to all users who have access to this specific cluster, all right to scale the cluster on to add a notice. A simple is the process of adding a mode to the cluster, assuming we've done that in the first place. So we go to the cluster, go into the details for the cluster we select, create machine. Once again, we need to be ensure that we put the correct am I in and any other functions we like. You can create different sized machines so it could be a larger node. Could be bigger disks and you'll see that worker has been added from the provisioning state on shortly. We will see the detail off that worker as a complete to remove a note from a cluster. Once again, we're going to the cluster. We select the node would like to remove. Okay, I just hit delete On that note. Worker nodes will be removed from the cluster using according and drawing method to ensure that your workouts are not affected. Updating a cluster. When an update is available in the menu for that particular cluster, the update button will become available. And it's a simple as clicking the button, validating which release you would like to update to. In this case, the next available releases five point seven point one. Here I'm kicking the update by in the background We will coordinate. Drain each node slowly go through the process of updating it. Andi update will complete depending on what the update is as quickly as possible. Girl, we go. The notes being rebuilt in this case impacted the manager node. So one of the manager nodes is in the process of being rebuilt. In fact, to in this case, one has completed already on In a few minutes we'll see that there are great has been completed. There we go. Great. Done. Yeah. If you work loads of both using proper cloud native community standards, there will be no impact. >>Excellent. So at this point, we've now got a cluster ready to start taking our communities of workloads. He started playing or APs to that costume. So watching that video, the thing that jumped out to me at first Waas like the inputs that go into defining this workload cost of it. All right, so we have to make sure we were using on appropriate am I for that kind of defines the substrate about what we're gonna be deploying our cluster on top of. But there's very little requirements. A so far as I could tell on top of that, am I? Because Docker enterprise Container Cloud is gonna bootstrap all the components that you need. That s all we have is kind of kind of really simple bunch box that we were deploying these things on top of so one thing that didn't get dug into too much in the video. But it's just sort of implied. Bruce, maybe you can comment on this is that release that Shawn had to choose for his, uh, for his cluster in creating it. And that release was also the thing we had to touch. Wanted to upgrade part cluster. So you have really sharp eyes. You could see at the end there that when you're doing the release upgrade enlisted out a stack of components docker, engine, kubernetes, calico, aled, different bits and pieces that go into, uh, go into one of these commodity clusters that deploy. And so, as far as I can tell in that case, that's what we mean by a release. In this sense, right? It's the validated stack off container ization and orchestration components that you know we've tested out and make sure it works well, introduction environments. >>Yeah, and and And that's really the focus of our effort is to ensure that any CVS in any of the stack are taken care of that there is a fixes air documented and up streamed to the open stack community source community, um, and and that, you know, then we test for the scaling ability and the reliability in high availability configuration for the clusters themselves. The hosts of your containers. Right. And I think one of the key, uh, you know, benefits that we provide is that ability to let you know, online, high. We've got an update for you, and it's fixes something that maybe you had asked us to fix. Uh, that all comes to you online as your managing your clusters, so you don't have to think about it. It just comes as part of the product. >>You just have to click on Yes. Please give me that update. Uh, not just the individual components, but again. It's that it's that validated stack, right? Not just, you know, component X, y and Z work. But they all work together effectively Scalable security, reliably cool. Um, yeah. So at that point, once we started creating that workload child cluster, of course, we bootstrapped good old universal control plane. Doctor Enterprise. On top of that, Sean had the classic comment there, you know? Yeah. Yeah. You'll see a little warnings and errors or whatever. When you're setting up, UCP don't handle, right, Just let it do its job, and it will converge all its components, you know, after just just a minute or two. But we saw in that video, we sped things up a little bit there just we didn't wait for, you know, progress fighters to complete. But really, in real life, that whole process is that anything so spend up one of those one of those fosters so quite quite quick. >>Yeah, and and I think the the thoroughness with which it goes through its process and re tries and re tries, uh, as you know, and it was evident when we went through the initial ah video of the bootstrapping as well that the processes themselves are self healing, as they are going through. So they will try and retry and wait for the event to complete properly on. And once it's completed properly, then it will go to the next step. >>Absolutely. And the worst thing you could do is panic at the first warning and start tearing things that don't don't do that. Just don't let it let it heal. Let take care of itself. And that's the beauty of these manage solutions is that they bake in a lot of subject matter expertise, right? The decisions that are getting made by those containers is they're bootstrapping themselves, reflect the expertise of the Mirant ISS crew that has been developing this content in these two is free for years and years now, over recognizing humanities. One cool thing there that I really appreciate it actually that it adds on top of Dr Enterprise is that automatic griffon a deployment as well. So, Dr Enterprises, I think everyone knows has had, like, some very high level of statistics baked into its dashboard for years and years now. But you know our customers always wanted a double click on that right to be able to go a little bit deeper. And Griffon are really addresses that it's built in dashboards. That's what's really nice to see. >>Yeah, uh, and all of the alerts and, uh, data are actually captured in a Prometheus database underlying that you have access to so that you are allowed to add new alerts that then go out to touch slack and say hi, You need to watch your disk space on this machine or those kinds of things. Um, and and this is especially helpful for folks who you know, want to manage the application service layer but don't necessarily want to manage the operations side of the house. So it gives them a tool set that they can easily say here, Can you watch these for us? And Miran tas can actually help do that with you, So >>yeah, yeah, I mean, that's just another example of baking in that expert knowledge, right? So you can leverage that without tons and tons of a long ah, long runway of learning about how to do that sort of thing. Just get out of the box right away. There was the other thing, actually, that you could sleep by really quickly if you weren't paying close attention. But Sean mentioned it on the video. And that was how When you use dark enterprise container cloud to scale your cluster, particularly pulling a worker out, it doesn't just like Territo worker down and forget about it. Right? Is using good communities best practices to cordon and drain the No. So you aren't gonna disrupt your workloads? You're going to just have a bunch of containers instantly. Excellent crash. You could really carefully manage the migration of workloads off that cluster has baked right in tow. How? How? Document? The brass container cloud is his handling cluster scale. >>Right? And And the kubernetes, uh, scaling methodology is is he adhered to with all of the proper techniques that ensure that it will tell you. Wait, you've got a container that actually needs three, uh, three, uh, instances of itself. And you don't want to take that out, because that node, it means you'll only be able to have to. And we can't do that. We can't allow that. >>Okay, Very cool. Further thoughts on this video. So should we go to the questions. >>Let's let's go to the questions >>that people have. Uh, there's one good one here, down near the bottom regarding whether an a p I is available to do this. So in all these demos were clicking through this web. You I Yes, this is all a p. I driven. You could do all of this. You know, automate all this away is part of the CSC change. Absolutely. Um, that's kind of the point, right? We want you to be ableto spin up. Come on. I keep calling them commodity clusters. What I mean by that is clusters that you can create and throw away. You know, easily and automatically. So everything you see in these demos eyes exposed to FBI? >>Yeah. In addition, through the standard Cube cuddle, Uh, cli as well. So if you're not a programmer, but you still want to do some scripting Thio, you know, set up things and deploy your applications and things. You can use this standard tool sets that are available to accomplish that. >>There is a good question on scale here. So, like, just how many clusters and what sort of scale of deployments come this kind of support our engineers report back here that we've done in practice up to a Zeman ia's like two hundred clusters. We've deployed on this with two hundred fifty nodes in a cluster. So were, you know, like like I said, hundreds, hundreds of notes, hundreds of clusters managed by documented press container fall and then those downstream clusters, of course, subject to the usual constraints for kubernetes, right? Like default constraints with something like one hundred pods for no or something like that. There's a few different limitations of how many pods you can run on a given cluster that comes to us not from Dr Enterprise Container Cloud, but just from the underlying kubernetes distribution. >>Yeah, E. I mean, I don't think that we constrain any of the capabilities that are available in the, uh, infrastructure deliveries, uh, service within the goober Netease framework. So were, you know, But we are, uh, adhering to the standards that we would want to set to make sure that we're not overloading a node or those kinds of things, >>right. Absolutely cool. Alright. So at this point, we've got kind of a two layered our protection when we are management cluster, but we deployed in the first video. Then we use that to deploy one child clustering work, classroom, uh, for more sophisticated deployments where we might want to manage child clusters across multiple regions. We're gonna add another layer into our architectural we're gonna add in regional cluster management. So this idea you're gonna have the single management cluster that we started within the first video. On the next video, we're gonna learn how to spin up a regional clusters, each one of which would manage, for example, a different AWS uh, US region. So let me just pull out the video for that bill. We'll check it out for me. Mhm. >>Hello. In this demo, we will cover the deployment of additional regional management. Cluster will include a brief architectures of you how to set up the management environment, prepare for the deployment deployment overview and then just to prove it, to play a regional child cluster. So, looking at the overall architecture, the management cluster provides all the core functionality, including identity management, authentication, inventory and release version. ING Regional Cluster provides the specific architecture provider in this case AWS on the LCN components on the D you speak Cluster for child cluster is the cluster or clusters being deployed and managed? Okay, so why do you need a regional cluster? Different platform architectures, for example aws who have been stack even bare metal to simplify connectivity across multiple regions handle complexities like VPNs or one way connectivity through firewalls, but also help clarify availability zones. Yeah. Here we have a view of the regional cluster and how it connects to the management cluster on their components, including items like the LCN cluster Manager we also Machine Manager were held. Mandel are managed as well as the actual provider logic. Mhm. Okay, we'll begin by logging on Is the default administrative user writer. Okay, once we're in there, we'll have a look at the available clusters making sure we switch to the default project which contains the administration clusters. Here we can see the cars management cluster, which is the master controller. And you see, it only has three nodes, three managers, no workers. Okay, if we look at another regional cluster similar to what we're going to deploy now, also only has three managers once again, no workers. But as a comparison, here's a child cluster This one has three managers, but also has additional workers associate it to the cluster. All right, we need to connect. Tell bootstrap note. Preferably the same note that used to create the original management plaster. It's just on AWS, but I still want to machine. All right. A few things we have to do to make sure the environment is ready. First thing we're going to see go into route. We'll go into our releases folder where we have the kozberg struck on. This was the original bootstrap used to build the original management cluster. Yeah, we're going to double check to make sure our cube con figures there once again, the one created after the original customers created just double check. That cute conflict is the correct one. Does point to the management cluster. We're just checking to make sure that we can reach the images that everything is working. A condom. No damages waken access to a swell. Yeah. Next we're gonna edit the machine definitions. What we're doing here is ensuring that for this cluster we have the right machine definitions, including items like the am I. So that's found under the templates AWS directory. We don't need to edit anything else here. But we could change items like the size of the machines attempts. We want to use that The key items to ensure where you changed the am I reference for the junta image is the one for the region in this case AWS region for utilizing this was no construct deployment. We have to make sure we're pointing in the correct open stack images. Yeah, okay. Set the correct and my save file. Now we need to get up credentials again. When we originally created the bootstrap cluster, we got credentials from eight of the U. S. If we hadn't done this, we would need to go through the u A. W s set up. So we're just exporting the AWS access key and I d. What's important is CAAs aws enabled equals. True. Now we're sitting the region for the new regional cluster. In this case, it's Frankfurt on exporting our cube conflict that we want to use for the management cluster. When we looked at earlier Yeah, now we're exporting that. Want to call the cluster region Is Frank Foods Socrates Frankfurt yet trying to use something descriptive It's easy to identify. Yeah, and then after this, we'll just run the bootstrap script, which will complete the deployment for us. Bootstrap of the regional cluster is quite a bit quicker than the initial management clusters. There are fewer components to be deployed. Um, but to make it watchable, we've spent it up. So we're preparing our bootstrap cluster on the local bootstrap node. Almost ready on. We started preparing the instances at W s and waiting for that bastard and no to get started. Please. The best you nerd Onda. We're also starting to build the actual management machines they're now provisioning on. We've reached the point where they're actually starting to deploy. Dr. Enterprise, this is probably the longest face. Yeah, seeing the second that all the nerds will go from the player deployed. Prepare, prepare. Yeah, You'll see their status changes updates. He was the first night ready. Second, just applying second already. Both my time. No waiting from home control. Let's become ready. Removing cluster the management cluster from the bootstrap instance into the new cluster running the date of the U. S. All my stay. Ah, now we're playing Stockland. Switch over is done on. Done. Now I will build a child cluster in the new region very, very quickly to find the cluster will pick. Our new credential has shown up. We'll just call it Frankfurt for simplicity a key and customs to find. That's the machine. That cluster stop with three managers. Set the correct Am I for the region? Yeah, Do the same to add workers. There we go test the building. Yeah. Total bill of time Should be about fifteen minutes. Concedes in progress. It's going to expect this up a little bit. Check the events. We've created all the dependencies, machine instances, machines, a boat shortly. We should have a working cluster in Frankfurt region. Now almost a one note is ready from management. Two in progress. Yeah, on we're done. Clusters up and running. Yeah. >>Excellent. So at this point, we've now got that three tier structure that we talked about before the video. We got that management cluster that we do strapped in the first video. Now we have in this example to different regional clustering one in Frankfurt, one of one management was two different aws regions. And sitting on that you can do Strap up all those Doctor enterprise costumes that we want for our work clothes. >>Yeah, that's the key to this is to be able to have co resident with your actual application service enabled clusters the management co resident with it so that you can, you know, quickly access that he observation Elson Surfboard services like the graph, Ana and that sort of thing for your particular region. A supposed to having to lug back into the home. What did you call it when we started >>the mothership? >>The mothership. Right. So we don't have to go back to the mother ship. We could get >>it locally. Yeah, when, like to that point of aggregating things under a single pane of glass? That's one thing that again kind of sailed by in the demo really quickly. But you'll notice all your different clusters were on that same cluster. Your pain on your doctor Enterprise Container Cloud management. Uh, court. Right. So both your child clusters for running workload and your regional clusters for bootstrapping. Those child clusters were all listed in the same place there. So it's just one pane of glass to go look for, for all of your clusters, >>right? And, uh, this is kind of an important point. I was, I was realizing, as we were going through this. All of the mechanics are actually identical between the bootstrapped cluster of the original services and the bootstrapped cluster of the regional services. It's the management layer of everything so that you only have managers, you don't have workers and that at the child cluster layer below the regional or the management cluster itself, that's where you have the worker nodes. And those are the ones that host the application services in that three tiered architecture that we've now defined >>and another, you know, detail for those that have sharp eyes. In that video, you'll notice when deploying a child clusters. There's not on Lee. A minimum of three managers for high availability management cluster. You must have at least two workers that's just required for workload failure. It's one of those down get out of work. They could potentially step in there, so your minimum foot point one of these child clusters is fine. Violence and scalable, obviously, from a >>That's right. >>Let's take a quick peek of the questions here, see if there's anything we want to call out, then we move on to our last want to my last video. There's another question here about, like where these clusters can live. So again, I know these examples are very aws heavy. Honestly, it's just easy to set up down on the other us. We could do things on bare metal and, uh, open stack departments on Prem. That's what all of this still works in exactly the same way. >>Yeah, the, uh, key to this, especially for the the, uh, child clusters, is the provision hers? Right? See you establish on AWS provision or you establish a bare metal provision or you establish a open stack provision. Or and eventually that list will include all of the other major players in the cloud arena. But you, by selecting the provision or within your management interface, that's where you decide where it's going to be hosted, where the child cluster is to be hosted. >>Speaking off all through a child clusters. Let's jump into our last video in the Siri's, where we'll see how to spin up a child cluster on bare metal. >>Hello. This demo will cover the process of defining bare metal hosts and then review the steps of defining and deploying a bare metal based doctor enterprise cluster. So why bare metal? Firstly, it eliminates hyper visor overhead with performance boost of up to thirty percent. Provides direct access to GP use, prioritize for high performance wear clothes like machine learning and AI, and supports high performance workloads like network functions, virtualization. It also provides a focus on on Prem workloads, simplifying and ensuring we don't need to create the complexity of adding another opera visor. Lay it between so continue on the theme Why Communities and bare metal again Hyper visor overhead. Well, no virtualization overhead. Direct access to hardware items like F p G A s G p us. We can be much more specific about resource is required on the nodes. No need to cater for additional overhead. Uh, we can handle utilization in the scheduling. Better Onda we increase the performances and simplicity of the entire environment as we don't need another virtualization layer. Yeah, In this section will define the BM hosts will create a new project will add the bare metal hosts, including the host name. I put my credentials I pay my address the Mac address on then provide a machine type label to determine what type of machine it is for later use. Okay, let's get started. So well again. Was the operator thing. We'll go and we'll create a project for our machines to be a member off helps with scoping for later on for security. I begin the process of adding machines to that project. Yeah. So the first thing we had to be in post, Yeah, many of the machine A name. Anything you want, que experimental zero one. Provide the IAP my user name type my password. Okay. On the Mac address for the common interface with the boot interface and then the i p m I i p address These machines will be at the time storage worker manager. He's a manager. Yeah, we're gonna add a number of other machines on will. Speed this up just so you could see what the process looks like in the future. Better discovery will be added to the product. Okay. Okay. Getting back there we have it are Six machines have been added, are busy being inspected, being added to the system. Let's have a look at the details of a single note. Yeah, you can see information on the set up of the node. Its capabilities? Yeah. As well as the inventory information about that particular machine. I see. Okay, let's go and create the cluster. Yeah, So we're going to deploy a bare metal child cluster. The process we're going to go through is pretty much the same as any other child cluster. So we'll credit custom. We'll give it a name, but if it were selecting bare metal on the region, we're going to select the version we want to apply. No way. We're going to add this search keys. If we hope we're going to give the load. Balancer host I p that we'd like to use out of dress range on update the address range that we want to use for the cluster. Check that the sea ideal blocks for the Cuban ladies and tunnels are what we want them to be. Enable disabled stack light. Yeah, and soothe stack light settings to find the cluster. And then, as for any other machine, we need to add machines to the cluster. Here. We're focused on building communities clusters, so we're gonna put the count of machines. You want managers? We're gonna pick the label type manager and create three machines is the manager for the Cuban eighties. Casting Okay thing. We're having workers to the same. It's a process. Just making sure that the worker label host level are I'm sorry. On when Wait for the machines to deploy. Let's go through the process of putting the operating system on the notes validating and operating system deploying doctor identifies Make sure that the cluster is up and running and ready to go. Okay, let's review the bold events waken See the machine info now populated with more information about the specifics of things like storage and of course, details of a cluster etcetera. Yeah, yeah, well, now watch the machines go through the various stages from prepared to deploy on what's the cluster build? And that brings us to the end of this particular demo. You can see the process is identical to that of building a normal child cluster we got our complaint is complete. >>All right, so there we have it, deploying a cluster to bare metal. Much the same is how we did for AWS. I guess maybe the biggest different stepwise there is there is that registration face first, right? So rather than just using AWS financials toe magically create PM's in the cloud. You got a point out all your bare metal servers to Dr Enterprise between the cloud and they really come in, I guess three profiles, right? You got your manager profile with a profile storage profile which has been labeled as allocate. Um, crossword cluster has appropriate, >>right? And And I think that the you know, the key differentiator here is that you have more physical control over what, uh, attributes that love your cat, by the way, uh, where you have the different attributes of a server of physical server. So you can, uh, ensure that the SSD configuration on the storage nodes is gonna be taken advantage of in the best way the GP use on the worker nodes and and that the management layer is going to have sufficient horsepower to, um, spin up to to scale up the the environments, as required. One of the things I wanted to mention, though, um, if I could get this out without the choking much better. Um, is that Ah, hey, mentioned the load balancer and I wanted to make sure in defining the load balancer and the load balancer ranges. Um, that is for the top of the the cluster itself. That's the operations of the management, uh, layer integrating with your systems internally to be able to access the the Cube Can figs. I I p address the, uh, in a centralized way. It's not the load balancer that's working within the kubernetes cluster that you are deploying. That's still cube proxy or service mesh, or however you're intending to do it. So, um, it's kind of an interesting step that your initial step in building this, um and we typically use things like metal L B or in gen X or that kind of thing is to establish that before we deploy this bear mental cluster so that it can ride on top of that for the tips and things. >>Very cool. So any other thoughts on what we've seen so far today? Bruce, we've gone through all the different layers. Doctor enterprise container clouds in these videos from our management are regional to our clusters on aws hand bear amount, Of course, with his dad is still available. Closing thoughts before we take just a very short break and run through these demos again. >>You know, I've been very exciting. Ah, doing the presentation with you. I'm really looking forward to doing it the second time, so that we because we've got a good rhythm going about this kind of thing. So I'm looking forward to doing that. But I think that the key elements of what we're trying to convey to the folks out there in the audience that I hope you've gotten out of it is that will that this is an easy enough process that if you follow the step by steps going through the documentation that's been put out in the chat, um, that you'll be able to give this a go yourself, Um, and you don't have to limit yourself toe having physical hardware on prim to try it. You could do it in a ws as we've shown you today. And if you've got some fancy use cases like, uh, you you need a Hadoop And and, uh, you know, cloud oriented ai stuff that providing a bare metal service helps you to get there very fast. So right. Thank you. It's been a pleasure. >>Yeah, thanks everyone for coming out. So, like I said we're going to take a very short, like, three minute break here. Uh, take the opportunity to let your colleagues know if they were in another session or they didn't quite make it to the beginning of this session. Or if you just want to see these demos again, we're going to kick off this demo. Siri's again in just three minutes at ten. Twenty five a. M. Pacific time where we will see all this great stuff again. Let's take a three minute break. I'll see you all back here in just two minutes now, you know. Okay, folks, that's the end of our extremely short break. We'll give people just maybe, like one more minute to trickle in if folks are interested in coming on in and jumping into our demo. Siri's again. Eso For those of you that are just joining us now I'm Bill Mills. I head up curriculum development for the training team here. Moran Tous on Joining me for this session of demos is Bruce. Don't you go ahead and introduce yourself doors, who is still on break? That's cool. We'll give Bruce a minute or two to get back while everyone else trickles back in. There he is. Hello, Bruce. >>How'd that go for you? Okay, >>Very well. So let's kick off our second session here. I e just interest will feel for you. Thio. Let it run over here. >>Alright. Hi. Bruce Matthews here. I'm the Western Regional Solutions architect for Marantz. Use A I'm the one with the gray hair and the glasses. Uh, the handsome one is Bill. So, uh, Bill, take it away. >>Excellent. So over the next hour or so, we've got a Siris of demos that's gonna walk you through your first steps with Dr Enterprise Container Cloud Doctor Enterprise Container Cloud is, of course, Miranda's brand new offering from bootstrapping kubernetes clusters in AWS bare metal open stack. And for the providers in the very near future. So we we've got, you know, just just over an hour left together on this session, uh, if you joined us at the top of the hour back at nine. A. M. Pacific, we went through these demos once already. Let's do them again for everyone else that was only able to jump in right now. Let's go. Our first video where we're gonna install Dr Enterprise container cloud for the very first time and use it to bootstrap management. Cluster Management Cluster, as I like to describe it, is our mother ship that's going to spin up all the other kubernetes clusters, Doctor Enterprise clusters that we're gonna run our workloads on. So I'm gonna do >>I'm so excited. I can hardly wait. >>Let's do it all right to share my video out here. Yeah, let's do it. >>Good day. The focus for this demo will be the initial bootstrap of the management cluster on the first regional clusters. To support AWS deployments, the management cluster provides the core functionality, including identity management, authentication, infantry release version. The regional cluster provides the specific architecture provided in this case AWS and the Elsom components on the UCP cluster Child cluster is the cluster or clusters being deployed and managed. The deployment is broken up into five phases. The first phase is preparing a bootstrap note on its dependencies on handling the download of the bridge struck tools. The second phase is obtaining America's license file. Third phase. Prepare the AWS credentials instead of the ideas environment, the fourth configuring the deployment, defining things like the machine types on the fifth phase, Run the bootstrap script and wait for the deployment to complete. Okay, so here we're sitting up the strap node. Just checking that it's clean and clear and ready to go there. No credentials already set up on that particular note. Now, we're just checking through aws to make sure that the account we want to use we have the correct credentials on the correct roles set up on validating that there are no instances currently set up in easy to instance, not completely necessary, but just helps keep things clean and tidy when I am perspective. Right. So next step, we're just gonna check that we can from the bootstrap note, reach more antis, get to the repositories where the various components of the system are available. They're good. No areas here. Yeah, right now we're going to start sitting at the bootstrap note itself. So we're downloading the cars release, get get cars, script, and then next we're going to run it. Yeah, I've been deployed changing into that big struck folder, just making see what's there right now we have no license file, so we're gonna get the license filed. Okay? Get the license file through more antis downloads site signing up here, downloading that license file and putting it into the Carisbrook struck folder. Okay, since we've done that, we can now go ahead with the rest of the deployment. Yeah, see what the follow is there? Uh huh. Once again, checking that we can now reach E C two, which is extremely important for the deployment. Just validation steps as we move through the process. Alright. Next big step is violating all of our AWS credentials. So the first thing is, we need those route credentials which we're going to export on the command line. This is to create the necessary bootstrap user on AWS credentials for the completion off the deployment we're now running in AWS policy create. So it is part of that is creating our food trucks script. Creating this through policy files onto the AWS, just generally preparing the environment using a cloud formation script, you'll see in a second, I'll give a new policy confirmations just waiting for it to complete. And there is done. It's gonna have a look at the AWS console. You can see that we're creative completed. Now we can go and get the credentials that we created. Good day. I am console. Go to the new user that's being created. We'll go to the section on security credentials and creating new keys. Download that information media access Key I. D and the secret access key, but usually then exported on the command line. Okay, Couple of things to Notre. Ensure that you're using the correct AWS region on ensure that in the conflict file you put the correct Am I in for that region? I'm sure you have it together in a second. Okay, thanks. Is key. So you could X key Right on. Let's kick it off. So this process takes between thirty and forty five minutes. Handles all the AWS dependencies for you. Um, as we go through, the process will show you how you can track it. Andi will start to see things like the running instances being created on the AWS side. The first phase off this whole process happening in the background is the creation of a local kind based bootstrapped cluster on the bootstrap node that clusters then used to deploy and manage all the various instances and configurations within AWS at the end of the process. That cluster is copied into the new cluster on AWS and then shut down that local cluster essentially moving itself over. Yeah, okay. Local clusters boat. Just waiting for the various objects to get ready. Standard communities objects here. Yeah, you mentioned Yeah. So we've speed up this process a little bit just for demonstration purposes. Okay, there we go. So first note is being built the bastion host just jump box that will allow us access to the entire environment. Yeah, In a few seconds, we'll see those instances here in the US console on the right. Um, the failures that you're seeing around failed to get the I. P for Bastian is just the weight state while we wait for AWS to create the instance. Okay. Yeah. Beauty there. Movies. Okay, sketch. Hello? Yeah, Okay. Okay. On. There we go. Question host has been built on three instances for the management clusters have now been created. Okay, We're going through the process of preparing. Those nodes were now copying everything over. See that scaling up of controllers in the big strapped cluster? It's indicating that we're starting all of the controllers in the new question. Almost there. Right? Okay. Just waiting for key. Clark. Uh huh. So finish up. Yeah. No. Now we're shutting down. Control this on the local bootstrap node on preparing our I. D. C configuration, fourth indication. So once this is completed, the last phase will be to deploy stack light into the new cluster, that glass on monitoring tool set, Then we go stack like deployment has started. Mhm. Coming to the end of the deployment mountain. Yeah, they were cut final phase of the deployment. And we are done. Yeah, you'll see. At the end, they're providing us the details of you. I log in. So there's a key Clark log in. Uh, you can modify that initial default possible is part of the configuration set up where they were in the documentation way. Go Councils up way can log in. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you very much for watching. >>All right, so at this point, what we have we got our management cluster spun up, ready to start creating work clusters. So just a couple of points to clarify there to make sure everyone caught that, uh, as advertised. That's darker. Enterprise container cloud management cluster. That's not rework loans. are gonna go right? That is the tool and you're gonna use to start spinning up downstream commodity documentary prize clusters for bootstrapping record too. >>And the seed host that were, uh, talking about the kind cluster dingy actually doesn't have to exist after the bootstrap succeeds eso It's sort of like, uh, copies head from the seed host Toothy targets in AWS spins it up it then boots the the actual clusters and then it goes away too, because it's no longer necessary >>so that bootstrapping know that there's not really any requirements, Hardly on that, right. It just has to be able to reach aws hit that Hit that a p I to spin up those easy to instances because, as you just said, it's just a kubernetes in docker cluster on that piece. Drop note is just gonna get torn down after the set up finishes on. You no longer need that. Everything you're gonna do, you're gonna drive from the single pane of glass provided to you by your management cluster Doctor enterprise Continue cloud. Another thing that I think is sort of interesting their eyes that the convict is fairly minimal. Really? You just need to provide it like aws regions. Um, am I? And that's what is going to spin up that spending that matter faster. >>Right? There is a mammal file in the bootstrap directory itself, and all of the necessary parameters that you would fill in have default set. But you have the option then of going in and defining a different Am I different for a different region, for example? Oh, are different. Size of instance from AWS. >>One thing that people often ask about is the cluster footprint. And so that example you saw they were spitting up a three manager, um, managing cluster as mandatory, right? No single manager set up at all. We want high availability for doctrine Enterprise Container Cloud management. Like so again, just to make sure everyone sort of on board with the life cycle stage that we're at right now. That's the very first thing you're going to do to set up Dr Enterprise Container Cloud. You're going to do it. Hopefully exactly once. Right now, you've got your management cluster running, and they're gonna use that to spend up all your other work clusters Day today has has needed How do we just have a quick look at the questions and then lets take a look at spinning up some of those child clusters. >>Okay, e think they've actually been answered? >>Yeah, for the most part. One thing I'll point out that came up again in the Dail, helpfully pointed out earlier in surgery, pointed out again, is that if you want to try any of the stuff yourself, it's all of the dogs. And so have a look at the chat. There's a links to instructions, so step by step instructions to do each and every thing we're doing here today yourself. I really encourage you to do that. Taking this out for a drive on your own really helps internalizing communicate these ideas after the after launch pad today, Please give this stuff try on your machines. Okay, So at this point, like I said, we've got our management cluster. We're not gonna run workloads there that we're going to start creating child clusters. That's where all of our work and we're gonna go. That's what we're gonna learn how to do in our next video. Cue that up for us. >>I so love Shawn's voice. >>Wasn't that all day? >>Yeah, I watched him read the phone book. >>All right, here we go. Let's now that we have our management cluster set up, let's create a first child work cluster. >>Hello. In this demo, we will cover the deployment experience of creating a new child cluster the scaling of the cluster on how to update the cluster. When a new version is available, we begin the process by logging onto the you I as a normal user called Mary. Let's go through the navigation of the u I. So you can switch Project Mary only has access to development. Uh huh. Get a list of the available projects that you have access to. What clusters have been deployed at the moment there. Man. Yes, this H keys, Associate ID for Mary into her team on the cloud credentials that allow you to create or access the various clouds that you can deploy clusters to finally different releases that are available to us. We can switch from dark mode to light mode, depending on your preferences. Right. Let's now set up some ssh keys for Mary so she can access the notes and machines again. Very simply, had Mississippi key give it a name. We copy and paste our public key into the upload key block. Or we can upload the key if we have the file available on our machine. A very simple process. So to create a new cluster, we define the cluster ad management nodes and add worker nodes to the cluster. Yeah, again, very simply, we got the clusters tab we had to create cluster button. Give the cluster name. Yeah, Andi, select the provider. We only have access to AWS in this particular deployment, so we'll stick to AWS. What's like the region in this case? US West one released version five point seven is the current release Onda Attach. Mary's Key is necessary key. We can then check the rest of the settings, confirming the provider any kubernetes c r D a r i p address information. We can change this. Should we wish to? We'll leave it default for now and then what components of stack light? I would like to deploy into my custom for this. I'm enabling stack light on logging, and I consider the retention sizes attention times on. Even at this stage, add any custom alerts for the watchdogs. Consider email alerting which I will need my smart host. Details and authentication details. Andi Slack Alerts. Now I'm defining the cluster. All that's happened is the cluster's been defined. I now need to add machines to that cluster. I'll begin by clicking the create machine button within the cluster definition. Oh, select manager, Select the number of machines. Three is the minimum. Select the instant size that I'd like to use from AWS and very importantly, ensure correct. Use the correct Am I for the region. I convinced side on the route. Device size. There we go. My three machines are busy creating. I now need to add some workers to this cluster. So I go through the same process this time once again, just selecting worker. I'll just add to once again the am I is extremely important. Will fail if we don't pick the right. Am I for a Clinton machine? In this case and the deployment has started, we can go and check on the bold status are going back to the clusters screen on clicking on the little three dots on the right. We get the cluster info and the events, so the basic cluster info you'll see pending their listen. Cluster is still in the process of being built. We kick on, the events will get a list of actions that have been completed This part of the set up of the cluster. So you can see here. We've created the VPC. We've created the sub nets on. We've created the Internet Gateway. It's unnecessary made of us. And we have no warnings of the stage. Okay, this will then run for a while. We have one minute past. We can click through. We can check the status of the machine balls as individuals so we can check the machine info, details of the machines that we've assigned mhm and see any events pertaining to the machine areas like this one on normal. Yeah. Just last. The community's components are waiting for the machines to start. Go back to customers. Okay, right. Because we're moving ahead now. We can see we have it in progress. Five minutes in new Matt Gateway. And at this stage, the machines have been built on assigned. I pick up the U S. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There we go. Machine has been created. See the event detail and the AWS. I'd for that machine. No speeding things up a little bit this whole process and to end takes about fifteen minutes. Run the clock forward, you'll notice is the machines continue to bold the in progress. We'll go from in progress to ready. A soon as we got ready on all three machines, the managers on both workers way could go on and we could see that now we reached the point where the cluster itself is being configured mhm and then we go. Cluster has been deployed. So once the classes deployed, we can now never get around. Our environment are looking into configure cluster. We could modify their cluster. We could get the end points for alert Alert Manager See here the griffon occupying and Prometheus are still building in the background but the cluster is available on You would be able to put workloads on it at this stage to download the cube conflict so that I can put workloads on it. It's again the three little dots in the right for that particular cluster. If the download cube conflict give it my password, I now have the Q conflict file necessary so that I can access that cluster. All right, Now that the build is fully completed, we can check out cluster info on. We can see that all the satellite components have been built. All the storage is there, and we have access to the CPU. I. So if we click into the cluster, we can access the UCP dashboard, click the signing with the clock button to use the SSO. We give Mary's possible to use the name once again. Thing is an unlicensed cluster way could license at this point. Or just skip it on. Do we have the UCP dashboard? You could see that has been up for a little while. We have some data on the dashboard going back to the console. We can now go to the griffon. A data just been automatically pre configured for us. We can switch and utilized a number of different dashboards that have already been instrumented within the cluster. So, for example, communities cluster information, the name spaces, deployments, nodes. Um, so we look at nodes. If we could get a view of the resource is utilization of Mrs Custer is very little running in it. Yeah, a general dashboard of Cuba Navies cluster. What If this is configurable, you can modify these for your own needs, or add your own dashboards on de scoped to the cluster. So it is available to all users who have access to this specific cluster. All right to scale the cluster on to add a No. This is simple. Is the process of adding a mode to the cluster, assuming we've done that in the first place. So we go to the cluster, go into the details for the cluster we select, create machine. Once again, we need to be ensure that we put the correct am I in and any other functions we like. You can create different sized machines so it could be a larger node. Could be bigger group disks and you'll see that worker has been added in the provisioning state. On shortly, we will see the detail off that worker as a complete to remove a note from a cluster. Once again, we're going to the cluster. We select the node we would like to remove. Okay, I just hit delete On that note. Worker nodes will be removed from the cluster using according and drawing method to ensure that your workloads are not affected. Updating a cluster. When an update is available in the menu for that particular cluster, the update button will become available. And it's a simple as clicking the button validating which release you would like to update to this case. This available releases five point seven point one give you I'm kicking the update back in the background. We will coordinate. Drain each node slowly, go through the process of updating it. Andi update will complete depending on what the update is as quickly as possible. Who we go. The notes being rebuilt in this case impacted the manager node. So one of the manager nodes is in the process of being rebuilt. In fact, to in this case, one has completed already. Yeah, and in a few minutes, we'll see that the upgrade has been completed. There we go. Great. Done. If you work loads of both using proper cloud native community standards, there will be no impact. >>All right, there. We haven't. We got our first workload cluster spun up and managed by Dr Enterprise Container Cloud. So I I loved Shawn's classic warning there. When you're spinning up an actual doctor enterprise deployment, you see little errors and warnings popping up. Just don't touch it. Just leave it alone and let Dr Enterprises self healing properties take care of all those very transient temporary glitches, resolve themselves and leave you with a functioning workload cluster within victims. >>And now, if you think about it that that video was not very long at all. And that's how long it would take you if someone came into you and said, Hey, can you spend up a kubernetes cluster for development development A. Over here, um, it literally would take you a few minutes to thio Accomplish that. And that was with a W s. Obviously, which is sort of, ah, transient resource in the cloud. But you could do exactly the same thing with resource is on Prem or resource is, um physical resource is and will be going through that later in the process. >>Yeah, absolutely one thing that is present in that demo, but that I like to highlight a little bit more because it just kind of glides by Is this notion of, ah, cluster release? So when Sean was creating that cluster, and also when when he was upgrading that cluster, he had to choose a release. What does that didn't really explain? What does that mean? Well, in Dr Enterprise Container Cloud, we have released numbers that capture the entire staff of container ization tools that will be deploying to that workload costume. So that's your version of kubernetes sed cor DNs calico. Doctor Engineer. All the different bits and pieces that not only work independently but are validated toe work together as a staff appropriate for production, humanities, adopted enterprise environments. >>Yep. From the bottom of the stack to the top, we actually test it for scale. Test it for CVS, test it for all of the various things that would, you know, result in issues with you running the application services. And I've got to tell you from having, you know, managed kubernetes deployments and things like that that if you're the one doing it yourself, it can get rather messy. Eso This makes it easy. >>Bruce, you were staying a second ago. They I'll take you at least fifteen minutes to install your release. Custer. Well, sure, but what would all the other bits and pieces you need toe? Not just It's not just about pressing the button to install it, right? It's making the right decision. About what components work? Well, our best tested toe be successful working together has a staff? Absolutely. We this release mechanism and Dr Enterprise Container Cloud. Let's just kind of package up that expert knowledge and make it available in a really straightforward, fashionable species. Uh, pre Confederate release numbers and Bruce is you're pointing out earlier. He's got delivered to us is updates kind of transparent period. When when? When Sean wanted toe update that cluster, he created little update. Custer Button appeared when an update was available. All you gotta do is click. It tells you what Here's your new stack of communities components. It goes ahead. And the straps those components for you? >>Yeah, it actually even displays at the top of the screen. Ah, little header That says you've got an update available. Do you want me to apply? It s o >>Absolutely. Another couple of cool things. I think that are easy to miss in that demo was I really like the on board Bafana that comes along with this stack. So we've been Prometheus Metrics and Dr Enterprise for years and years now. They're very high level. Maybe in in previous versions of Dr Enterprise having those detailed dashboards that Ravana provides, I think that's a great value out there. People always wanted to be ableto zoom in a little bit on that, uh, on those cluster metrics, you're gonna provides them out of the box for us. Yeah, >>that was Ah, really, uh, you know, the joining of the Miranda's and Dr teams together actually spawned us to be able to take the best of what Morantes had in the open stack environment for monitoring and logging and alerting and to do that integration in in a very short period of time so that now we've got it straight across the board for both the kubernetes world and the open stack world. Using the same tool sets >>warm. One other thing I wanna point out about that demo that I think there was some questions about our last go around was that demo was all about creating a managed workplace cluster. So the doctor enterprise Container Cloud managers were using those aws credentials provisioned it toe actually create new e c two instances installed Docker engine stalled. Doctor Enterprise. Remember all that stuff on top of those fresh new VM created and managed by Dr Enterprise contain the cloud. Nothing unique about that. AWS deployments do that on open staff doing on Parramatta stuff as well. Um, there's another flavor here, though in a way to do this for all of our long time doctor Enterprise customers that have been running Doctor Enterprise for years and years. Now, if you got existing UCP points existing doctor enterprise deployments, you plug those in to Dr Enterprise Container Cloud, uh, and use darker enterprise between the cloud to manage those pre existing Oh, working clusters. You don't always have to be strapping straight from Dr Enterprises. Plug in external clusters is bad. >>Yep, the the Cube config elements of the UCP environment. The bundling capability actually gives us a very straightforward methodology. And there's instructions on our website for exactly how thio, uh, bring in import and you see p cluster. Um so it it makes very convenient for our existing customers to take advantage of this new release. >>Absolutely cool. More thoughts on this wonders if we jump onto the next video. >>I think we should move press on >>time marches on here. So let's Let's carry on. So just to recap where we are right now, first video, we create a management cluster. That's what we're gonna use to create All our downstream were closed clusters, which is what we did in this video. Let's maybe the simplest architectures, because that's doing everything in one region on AWS pretty common use case because we want to be able to spin up workload clusters across many regions. And so to do that, we're gonna add a third layer in between the management and work cluster layers. That's gonna be our regional cluster managers. So this is gonna be, uh, our regional management cluster that exists per region that we're going to manage those regional managers will be than the ones responsible for spending part clusters across all these different regions. Let's see it in action in our next video. >>Hello. In this demo, we will cover the deployment of additional regional management. Cluster will include a brief architectural overview, how to set up the management environment, prepare for the deployment deployment overview, and then just to prove it, to play a regional child cluster. So looking at the overall architecture, the management cluster provides all the core functionality, including identity management, authentication, inventory and release version. ING Regional Cluster provides the specific architecture provider in this case, AWS on the L C M components on the d you speak cluster for child cluster is the cluster or clusters being deployed and managed? Okay, so why do you need original cluster? Different platform architectures, for example AWS open stack, even bare metal to simplify connectivity across multiple regions handle complexities like VPNs or one way connectivity through firewalls, but also help clarify availability zones. Yeah. Here we have a view of the regional cluster and how it connects to the management cluster on their components, including items like the LCN cluster Manager. We also machine manager. We're hell Mandel are managed as well as the actual provider logic. Okay, we'll begin by logging on Is the default administrative user writer. Okay, once we're in there, we'll have a look at the available clusters making sure we switch to the default project which contains the administration clusters. Here we can see the cars management cluster, which is the master controller. When you see it only has three nodes, three managers, no workers. Okay, if we look at another regional cluster, similar to what we're going to deploy now. Also only has three managers once again, no workers. But as a comparison is a child cluster. This one has three managers, but also has additional workers associate it to the cluster. Yeah, all right, we need to connect. Tell bootstrap note, preferably the same note that used to create the original management plaster. It's just on AWS, but I still want to machine Mhm. All right, A few things we have to do to make sure the environment is ready. First thing we're gonna pseudo into route. I mean, we'll go into our releases folder where we have the car's boot strap on. This was the original bootstrap used to build the original management cluster. We're going to double check to make sure our cube con figures there It's again. The one created after the original customers created just double check. That cute conflict is the correct one. Does point to the management cluster. We're just checking to make sure that we can reach the images that everything's working, condone, load our images waken access to a swell. Yeah, Next, we're gonna edit the machine definitions what we're doing here is ensuring that for this cluster we have the right machine definitions, including items like the am I So that's found under the templates AWS directory. We don't need to edit anything else here, but we could change items like the size of the machines attempts we want to use but the key items to ensure where changed the am I reference for the junta image is the one for the region in this case aws region of re utilizing. This was an open stack deployment. We have to make sure we're pointing in the correct open stack images. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Sit the correct Am I save the file? Yeah. We need to get up credentials again. When we originally created the bootstrap cluster, we got credentials made of the U. S. If we hadn't done this, we would need to go through the u A. W s set up. So we just exporting AWS access key and I d. What's important is Kaz aws enabled equals. True. Now we're sitting the region for the new regional cluster. In this case, it's Frankfurt on exporting our Q conflict that we want to use for the management cluster when we looked at earlier. Yeah, now we're exporting that. Want to call? The cluster region is Frankfurt's Socrates Frankfurt yet trying to use something descriptive? It's easy to identify. Yeah, and then after this, we'll just run the bootstrap script, which will complete the deployment for us. Bootstrap of the regional cluster is quite a bit quicker than the initial management clusters. There are fewer components to be deployed, but to make it watchable, we've spent it up. So we're preparing our bootstrap cluster on the local bootstrap node. Almost ready on. We started preparing the instances at us and waiting for the past, you know, to get started. Please the best your node, onda. We're also starting to build the actual management machines they're now provisioning on. We've reached the point where they're actually starting to deploy Dr Enterprise, he says. Probably the longest face we'll see in a second that all the nodes will go from the player deployed. Prepare, prepare Mhm. We'll see. Their status changes updates. It was the first word ready. Second, just applying second. Grady, both my time away from home control that's become ready. Removing cluster the management cluster from the bootstrap instance into the new cluster running a data for us? Yeah, almost a on. Now we're playing Stockland. Thanks. Whichever is done on Done. Now we'll build a child cluster in the new region very, very quickly. Find the cluster will pick our new credential have shown up. We'll just call it Frankfurt for simplicity. A key on customers to find. That's the machine. That cluster stop with three manages set the correct Am I for the region? Yeah, Same to add workers. There we go. That's the building. Yeah. Total bill of time. Should be about fifteen minutes. Concedes in progress. Can we expect this up a little bit? Check the events. We've created all the dependencies, machine instances, machines. A boat? Yeah. Shortly. We should have a working caster in the Frankfurt region. Now almost a one note is ready from management. Two in progress. On we're done. Trust us up and running. >>Excellent. There we have it. We've got our three layered doctor enterprise container cloud structure in place now with our management cluster in which we scrap everything else. Our regional clusters which manage individual aws regions and child clusters sitting over depends. >>Yeah, you can. You know you can actually see in the hierarchy the advantages that that presents for folks who have multiple locations where they'd like a geographic locations where they'd like to distribute their clusters so that you can access them or readily co resident with your development teams. Um and, uh, one of the other things I think that's really unique about it is that we provide that same operational support system capability throughout. So you've got stack light monitoring the stack light that's monitoring the stack light down to the actual child clusters that they have >>all through that single pane of glass that shows you all your different clusters, whether their workload cluster like what the child clusters or usual clusters from managing different regions. Cool. Alright, well, time marches on your folks. We've only got a few minutes left and I got one more video in our last video for the session. We're gonna walk through standing up a child cluster on bare metal. So so far, everything we've seen so far has been aws focus. Just because it's kind of easy to make that was on AWS. We don't want to leave you with the impression that that's all we do, we're covering AWS bare metal and open step deployments as well documented Craftsman Cloud. Let's see it in action with a bare metal child cluster. >>We are on the home stretch, >>right. >>Hello. This demo will cover the process of defining bare metal hosts and then review the steps of defining and deploying a bare metal based doctor enterprise cluster. Yeah, so why bare metal? Firstly, it eliminates hyper visor overhead with performance boost of up to thirty percent provides direct access to GP use, prioritize for high performance wear clothes like machine learning and AI, and support high performance workouts like network functions, virtualization. It also provides a focus on on Prem workloads, simplifying and ensuring we don't need to create the complexity of adding another hyper visor layer in between. So continuing on the theme Why communities and bare metal again Hyper visor overhead. Well, no virtualization overhead. Direct access to hardware items like F p g A s G p, us. We can be much more specific about resource is required on the nodes. No need to cater for additional overhead. We can handle utilization in the scheduling better Onda. We increase the performance and simplicity of the entire environment as we don't need another virtualization layer. Yeah, In this section will define the BM hosts will create a new project. Will add the bare metal hosts, including the host name. I put my credentials. I pay my address, Mac address on, then provide a machine type label to determine what type of machine it is. Related use. Okay, let's get started Certain Blufgan was the operator thing. We'll go and we'll create a project for our machines to be a member off. Helps with scoping for later on for security. I begin the process of adding machines to that project. Yeah. Yeah. So the first thing we had to be in post many of the machine a name. Anything you want? Yeah, in this case by mental zero one. Provide the IAP My user name. Type my password? Yeah. On the Mac address for the active, my interface with boot interface and then the i p m i P address. Yeah, these machines. We have the time storage worker manager. He's a manager. We're gonna add a number of other machines on will speed this up just so you could see what the process. Looks like in the future, better discovery will be added to the product. Okay, Okay. Getting back there. We haven't Are Six machines have been added. Are busy being inspected, being added to the system. Let's have a look at the details of a single note. Mhm. We can see information on the set up of the node. Its capabilities? Yeah. As well as the inventory information about that particular machine. Okay, it's going to create the cluster. Mhm. Okay, so we're going to deploy a bare metal child cluster. The process we're going to go through is pretty much the same as any other child cluster. So credit custom. We'll give it a name. Thank you. But he thought were selecting bare metal on the region. We're going to select the version we want to apply on. We're going to add this search keys. If we hope we're going to give the load. Balancer host I p that we'd like to use out of the dress range update the address range that we want to use for the cluster. Check that the sea idea blocks for the communities and tunnels are what we want them to be. Enable disabled stack light and said the stack light settings to find the cluster. And then, as for any other machine, we need to add machines to the cluster. Here we're focused on building communities clusters. So we're gonna put the count of machines. You want managers? We're gonna pick the label type manager on create three machines. Is a manager for the Cuban a disgusting? Yeah, they were having workers to the same. It's a process. Just making sure that the worker label host like you are so yes, on Duin wait for the machines to deploy. Let's go through the process of putting the operating system on the notes, validating that operating system. Deploying Docker enterprise on making sure that the cluster is up and running ready to go. Okay, let's review the bold events. We can see the machine info now populated with more information about the specifics of things like storage. Yeah, of course. Details of a cluster, etcetera. Yeah, Yeah. Okay. Well, now watch the machines go through the various stages from prepared to deploy on what's the cluster build, and that brings us to the end of this particular do my as you can see the process is identical to that of building a normal child cluster we got our complaint is complete. >>Here we have a child cluster on bare metal for folks that wanted to play the stuff on Prem. >>It's ah been an interesting journey taken from the mothership as we started out building ah management cluster and then populating it with a child cluster and then finally creating a regional cluster to spread the geographically the management of our clusters and finally to provide a platform for supporting, you know, ai needs and and big Data needs, uh, you know, thank goodness we're now able to put things like Hadoop on, uh, bare metal thio in containers were pretty exciting. >>Yeah, absolutely. So with this Doctor Enterprise container cloud platform. Hopefully this commoditized scooping clusters, doctor enterprise clusters that could be spun up and use quickly taking provisioning times. You know, from however many months to get new clusters spun up for our teams. Two minutes, right. We saw those clusters gets better. Just a couple of minutes. Excellent. All right, well, thank you, everyone, for joining us for our demo session for Dr Enterprise Container Cloud. Of course, there's many many more things to discuss about this and all of Miranda's products. If you'd like to learn more, if you'd like to get your hands dirty with all of this content, police see us a training don Miranda's dot com, where we can offer you workshops and a number of different formats on our entire line of products and hands on interactive fashion. Thanks, everyone. Enjoy the rest of the launchpad of that >>thank you all enjoy.

>>Hi, Oleg. So great of you to join us today. I'm really looking forward to our session. Eso Let's get started. So if I can get you to give a quick intro to yourself and then if you can share with us what you're going to be discussing today >>Hi, Jake. In my name is Oleg Elbow. I'm a product architect and the Doctor Enterprise Container Cloud team. Uh, today I'm going to talk about running kubernetes on bare metal with a container cloud. My goal is going to tell you about this exciting feature and why we think it's important and what we actually did to make it possible. >>Brilliant. Thank you very much. So let's get started. Eso from my understanding kubernetes clusters are typically run in virtual machines in clouds. So, for example, public cloud AWS or private cloud maybe open staff based or VM ware V sphere. So why why would you go off and run it on their mettle? >>Well, uh, the Doctor Enterprise container cloud already can run Coburn eighties in the cloud, as you know, and the idea behind the container clouds to enable us to manage multiple doctor enterprise clusters. But we want to bring innovation to kubernetes. And instead of spending a lot of resources on the hyper visor and virtual machines, we just go all in for kubernetes directly environmental. >>Fantastic. So it sounds like you're suggesting then to run kubernetes directly on their mettle. >>That's correct. >>Fantastic and without a hyper visor layer. >>Yes, we all know the reasons to run kubernetes and virtual machines it's in The first place is mutual mutual isolation off workloads, but virtualization. It comes with the performance, heat and additional complexity. Uh, another. And when Iran coordinated the director on the hardware, it's a perfect opportunity for developers. They can see performance boost up to 30% for certain container workloads. Uh, this is because the virtualization layer adds a lot off overhead, and even with things like enhanced placement awareness technologies like Numa or processor opinion, it's it's still another head. By skipping over the virtualization, we just remove this overhead and gained this boost. >>Excellent, though it sounds like 30% performance boost very appealing. Are there any other value points or positive points that you can pull out? >>Yes, Besides, the hyper visor over had virtual machines. They also have some static resource footprint. They take up the memory and CPU cycles and overall reintroduces the density of containers per host. Without virtual machines, you can run upto 16% more containers on the same host. >>Excellent. Really great numbers there. >>One more thing to point out directly. Use environmental makes it easier to use a special purpose hardware like graphic processors or virtual no virtual network functions for don't work interfaces or the field programmable gate arrays for custom circuits, Uh, and you can share them between containers more efficiently. >>Excellent. I mean, there's some really great value points you pulled out there. So 30% performance boost, 60% density boost on it could go off and support specialized hardware a lot easier. But let's talk about now. The applications. So what sort of applications do you think would benefit from this The most? >>Well, I'm thinking primarily high performance computations and deep learning will benefit, Uh, which is the more common than you might think of now they're artificial Intelligence is gripping into a lot off different applications. Uh, it really depends on memory capacity and performance, and they also use a special devices like F P G s for custom circuits widely sold. All of it is applicable to the machine learning. Really? >>And I mean, that whole ai piece is I mean, really exciting. And we're seeing this become more commonplace across a whole host of sectors. So you're telcos, farmers, banking, etcetera. And not just I t today. >>Yeah, that's indeed very exciting. Uh, but creating communities closer environmental, unfortunately, is not very easy. >>Hope so it sounds like there may be some challenges or complexities around it. Ondas this, I guess. The reason why there's not many products then out there today for kubernetes on their metal on baby I like. Could you talk to us then about some of the challenges that this might entail? >>Well, there are quite a few challenges first, and for most, there is no one way to manage governmental infrastructures Nowadays. Many vendors have their solutions that are not always compatible with each other and not necessarily cover all aspects off this. Um So we've worked an open source project called metal cube metal cooped and integrated it into the doctor Enterprise Container Cloud To do this unified bar middle management for us. >>And you mentioned it I hear you say is that open source? >>There is no project is open source. We had a lot of our special sauce to it. Um, what it does, Basically, it enables us to manage the hardware servers just like a cloud server Instances. >>And could you go? I mean, that's very interesting, but could you go into a bit more detail and specifically What do you mean? As cloud instances, >>of course they can. Generally, it means to manage them through some sort of a p I or programming interface. Uh, this interface has to cover all aspects off the several life cycle, like hardware configuration, operating system management network configuration storage configuration, Uh, with help off Metal cube. We extend the carbonated C p i to enable it to manage bare metal hosts. And aled these suspects off its life cycle. The mental que project that's uses open stack. Ironic on. Did it drops it in the Cuban. It s a P I. And ironic does all the heavy lifting off provisioned. It does it in a very cloud native way. Uh, it configures service using cloud they need, which is very familiar to anyone who deals with the cloud and the power is managed transparently through the i p my protocol on. But it does a lot to hide the differences between different hardware hosts from the user and in the Doctor Enterprise Container Cloud. We made everything so the user doesn't really feel the difference between bare metal server and cloud VM. >>So, Oleg, are you saying that you can actually take a machine that's turned off and turn it on using the commands? >>That's correct. That's the I. P M I. R Intelligent platform management interface. Uh, it gives you an ability to interact directly with the hardware. You can manager monitor things like power, consumption, temperature, voltage and so on. But what we use it for is to manage the food source and the actual power state of the server. So we have a group of service that are available and we can turn them on. And when we need them, just if we were spinning the VM >>Excellent. So that's how you get around the fact that while aled cloud the ends of the same, the hardware is all different. But I would assume you would have different server configurations in one environment So how would you get around that? >>Uh, yeah, that Zatz. Excellent questions. So some elements of the berm mental management the FBI that we developed, they are specifically to enable operators toe handle wider range of hardware configurations. For example, we make it possible to consider multiple network interfaces on the host. We support flexible partitioning off hard disks and other storage devices. We also make it possible thio boot remote live using the unified extended firmware interface for modern systems. Or just good old bias for for the legacy ones. >>Excellent. So yeah, thanks. Thanks for sharing that that. Now let's take a look at the rest of the infrastructure and eggs. So what about things like networking and storage house that managed >>Oh, Jakey, that's some important details. So from the networking standpoint, the most important thing for kubernetes is load balancing. We use some proven open source technologies such a Zengin ICS and met a little bit to handle. Handle that for us and for the storage. That's ah, a bit more tricky part. There are a lot off different stories. Solutions out. There s o. We decided to go with self and ah cooperator for self self is very much your and stable distributed stories system. It has incredible scalability. We actually run. Uh, pretty big clusters in production with chef and rock makes the life cycle management for self very robust and cloud native with health shaking and self correction. That kind of stuff. So any kubernetes cluster that Dr Underprice Container Cloud provision for environmental Potentially. You can have the self cluster installed self installed in this cluster and provide stories that is accessible from any node in the cluster to any port in the cluster. So that's, uh, called Native Storage components. Native storage. >>Wonderful. But would that then mean that you'd have to have additional hardware so mawr hardware for the storage cluster, then? >>Not at all. Actually, we use Converse storage architecture in the current price container cloud and the workloads and self. They share the same machines and actually managed by the same kubernetes cluster A. Some point in the future, we plan to add more fully, even more flexibility to this, uh, self configuration and enable is share self, where all communities cluster will use a single single self back, and that's that's not the way for us to optimize our very basically. >>Excellent. So thanks for covering the infrastructure part. What would be good is if we can get an understanding them for that kind of look and feel, then for the operators and the users of the system. So what can they say? >>Yeah, the case. We know Doc Enterprise Container Cloud provides a web based user interface that is, uh, but enables to manage clusters. And the bare metal management actually is integrated into this interface and provides provides very smooth user experience. A zone operator, you need to add or enrolled governmental hosts pretty much the same way you add cloud credentials for any other for any other providers for any other platforms. >>Excellent. I mean, Oleg, it sounds really interesting. Would you be able to share some kind of demo with us? It be great to see this in action. Of >>course. Let's let's see what we have here. So, >>uh, thank you. >>Uh, so, first of all, you take a bunch of governmental service and you prepare them, connect and connect them to the network is described in the dogs and bootstrap container cloud on top of these, uh, three of these bare metal servers. Uh, once you put through, you have the container cloud up and running. You log into the u I. Let's start here. And, uh, I'm using the generic operator user for now. Its's possible to integrate it with your in the entity system with the customer and the entity system and get real users there. Mhm. So first of all, let's create a project. It will hold all off our clusters. And once we created it, just switched to it. And the first step for an operator is to add some burr metal hosts of the project. As you see it empty, uh, toe at the berm. It'll host. You just need a few parameters. Uh, name that will allow you to identify the server later. Then it's, ah, user name and password to access the IBM. My controls off the server next on, and it's very important. It's the hardware address off the first Internet port. It will be used to remotely boot the server over network. Uh, finally, that Z the i p address off the i p m i n point and last, but not the least. It's the bucket, uh, toe Assign the governmental host to. It's a label that is assigned to it. And, uh, right now we offer just three default labels or buckets. It's, ah, manager, manager, hosts, worker hosts and storage hosts. And depending on the hardware configuration of the server, you assign it to one of these three groups. You will see how it's used later in the phone, so note that least six servers are required to deploy managed kubernetes cluster. Just as for for the cloud providers. Um, there is some information available now about the service is the result of inspection. By the way, you can look it up. Now we move. Want to create a cluster, so you need to provide the name for the cluster. Select the release off Dr Enterprise Engine and next next step is for provider specific information. You need to specify the address of the Class three guy and point here, and the range of feathers is for services that will be installed in the cluster. The user war close um kubernetes Network parameter school be changed as well, but the defaults are usually okay. Now you can enable or disable stack light the monitoring system for the Burnett's cluster and provide some parameters to eat custom parameters. Uh, finally you click create to create the cluster. It's an empty cluster that we need to add some machines to. So we need a least three manager notes. The form is very simple. You just select the roll off the community snowed. It's either manager of worker Onda. You need to select this label bucket from which the environmental hospital we picked. We go with the manager label for manager notes and work your label for the workers. Uh, while question is deploying, let's check out some machine information. The storage data here, the names off the disks are taken from the environmental host Harbor inspection data that we checked before. Now we wait for servers to be deployed. Uh, it includes ah, operating system, and the government is itself. So uh, yeah, that's that's our That's our you user interface. Um, if operators need to, they can actually use Dr Enterprise Container Container cloud FBI for some more sophisticated, sophisticated configurations or to integrate with an external system, for example, configuration database. Uh, all the burr mental tasks they just can be executed through the carbonated C. P. I and by changing the custom resources customer sources describing the burr mental notes and objects >>Mhm, brilliant. Well, thank you for bringing that life. It's always good. Thio See it in action. I guess from my understanding, it looks like the operators can use the same tools as develops or developers but for managing their infrastructure, then >>yes, Exactly. For example, if you're develops and you use lands, uh, to monitor and manage your cluster, uh, the governmental resources are just another set of custom resources for you. Uh, it is possible to visualize and configure them through lands or any other developer to for kubernetes. >>Excellent. So from what I can see, that really could bridge the gap, then between infrastructure operators on develops and developer teams. Which is which is a big thing? >>Yes, that's that's Ah, one of our aspirations is to unify the user experience because we've seen a lot of these situations when infrastructure is operated by one set of tools and the container platform uses agnostic off it end users and offers completely different set of tools. So as a develops, you have to be proficient in both, and that's not very sustainable for some developers. Team James. >>Sure. Okay, well, thanks for covering that. That's great. E mean, there's obviously other container platforms out there in the market today. It would be great if you could explain only one of some of the differences there and in how Dr Enterprise Container Cloud approaches bare metal. >>Yeah, that's that's a That's an excellent question, Jake. Thank you. So, uh, in container cloud in the container Cloud Burr Mental management Unlike another container platforms, Burr metal management is highly and is tightly integrated in the in the product. It's integrated on the U and the A p I, and on the back and implementation level. Uh, other platforms typically rely on the user to provision in the ber metal hosts before they can deploy kubernetes on it. Uh, this leaves the operating system management hardware configuration hardware management mostly with dedicated infrastructure greater steam. Uh, Dr Enterprise Container Cloud might help to reduce this burden and this infrastructure management costs by just automated and effectively removing the part of responsibility from the infrastructure operators. And that's because container cloud on bare metal is essentially full stack solution. It includes the hardware configuration covers, operating system lifecycle management, especially, especially the security updates or C e updates. Uh, right now, at this point, the only out of the box operating system that we support is you, Bhutto. We're looking to expand this, and, as you know, the doctor Enterprise engine. It makes it possible to run kubernetes on many different platforms, including even Windows. And we plan to leverage this flexibility in the doctor enterprise container cloud full extent to expand this range of operating systems that we support. >>Excellent. Well, Oleg, we're running out of time. Unfortunately, I mean, I've thoroughly enjoyed our conversation today. You've pulled out some excellent points you talked about potentially up to a 30% performance boost up to 60% density boost. Um, you've also talked about how it can help with specialized hardware and make this a lot easier. Um, we also talked about some of the challenges that you could solve, obviously, by using docker enterprise container clouds such as persistent storage and load balancing. There's obviously a lot here, but thank you so much for joining us today. It's been fantastic. And I hope that we've given some food for thoughts to go out and try and deployed kubernetes on Ben. It'll so thanks. So leg >>Thank you for coming. BJ Kim

>>from around the globe. It's the Cube with digital coverage of Miranda's launchpad 2020 brought to you by more antis. >>Hi, I'm stupid man. And this is the cubes coverage of Miran Tous Launchpad 2020. Happy to welcome to the program First time guest William Do places. He's the head of customer success in operations with Miran Tous William. Thanks so much for joining us, >>Steve. Thanks for two. Thanks for having me. >>Yeah, why don't we start with a little bit? You know, customer success operations. Tell us what that's entail, What's what's under your purview, Right? >>So is everything basically, you know, post sales, right? So after a customer has portions, their their subscription, we basically take it from there Going forward, you know, looking after the relationship with the customer, ensure they you know, the whole, you know, subscription fulfillment element off it. Whether that is just bored with that is to cut the relationship management from a post sales perspective and so on, so forth. So that is basically into end from the point off purchase to the renewal face. Would would would fall with any supporting operations. >>Well, that's such an important piece of the whole cloud conversation. Of course, people, you know, we talked for such a long time cap ex op X. We talk about descriptions and manage services. Of course, has been a riel. You know, growth segment of the market place. Love to hear a little bit, you know, What are you hearing from your customers? And, you know, give us the lay of the land As to the various options that that that Miranda is offering today and we'll get into any of the new pieces also. >>Yeah. So the the the options that we're making available for our customers primary called Prod Care, which is a 24 7 mission critical support subscription. Andi Ops Care, which is a fully managed service offering. Um, what we hear from our customers is is, you know, the the the notion of having a development environment and a production environment with different, you know, sls and entitlements and so on. You know that that that notion is disappearing because your divots chain or pipeline is all connected. So you could just think for yourself. If you have a group of developers like 50 or 100 or 1000 developers that are basically standing there still, because they cannot push code because there's a problem or a new issue on the development cloud. But the development cloud is not. Beings is not seen or is treated as a mission critical platform. You know, those developers are standing date stole, so that is a very expensive problem for a customer at that point in time, so that the whole chain, the whole pipeline that makes part off your your develop cycle, should be seen as one entity. And that's what we've seen in the market at the moment that we're realizing with a large customers that are really embracing the kind of the approach to modern applications. Andi. This is why we're making these options available. Thio, our Doctor Enterprise customers We've been running with them for quite a while on the on the Miranda's cloud platform, which is our Infrastructures service offering on. We've had some great success with that, and we now in a position to make that available to our customers. So it's really providing a customer that true enterprise mission critical regardless of time off they the day of the week availability off support whether that is a my question or whether that is really an outage or a failure. You know, you know, you've got that safety net that is that is online and available for you. Thio to sort Whatever problem you have about, you know, that is from the support perspective, you know. And if we go over into the manage service offering we have for on up Skate that is a really hardened Eitel based, um infrastructure or platform as a service offering that we provide eso. We've had some great success. Like I said on the on the Miranda's cloud platform Peace. And we're now making that available for Doc Enterprise customers as well. So that is taking the whole the whole chain through. We look after the the whole platform for the customer and allow the customer to get on with what is important to them. You know, how do they develop their applications? You know, optimize that for their business instead, off spending their times and keep spending their time on keeping the lights on, so to speak, you know? So we take care of all of that. They have that responsibility over to us on DWI. We manage that as our own and we basically could become an extension of their business. So we have a fully integrated into the environment, the whole logging and not monitoring piece we take over the whole life cycle. Management off the environment. We take over, we do the whole change Management piece Incident Management Incident Management piece on. This whole process is truly transparent to the customer. At no point are they, you know, in the dark what's going on where we're going and we have the and the whole pieces wrapped around Bio customer success Manager which is bringing this whole sense off ownership Onda priority. That customer, you've got a single point of contact that is your business partner and that the only piece, the only metric that that individuals measured on is the success off that customer with our our product. So that in a nutshell, at a very high level what these are. But these offerings are all about >>well, we all know these days how important it is toe, you know, make your developers productive. It's funny listening to you, I think back to the Times where you talked about making sure that it's mission critical environment You know, years ago it was like, Oh, well, the developer just gets whatever old hardware we have, and they do it on their own. Now, of course, you know you want Dev in production toe have a very similar environment. And as you said, those manage services offering and be, you know, so important because we want to be able to shift left, let my platform let my vendors take care of some of the things that's gonna be able to enable me to build my new applications toe, respond to the business and do. In fact, I don't want my developers getting bogged down. So do you have any, You know, what are some of the successes there? How do your customers measure that? They Hey, I'm getting great value for going to manage service. Obviously, you know, you talked about that, That technical manager that helps them there. Anybody that's used, you know, enterprise offerings. There's certain times where it's like, Hey, I use it a lot. Other times it's it's just nice to be there, but, you know, why do you bring us in a little bit? Some of the customers, obviously anonymous. You need Teoh you know, how do they say, You know, this is phenomenal value for my business. >>Yes, it's all. It's all about the focus, right? So you're the customer. 100% focus on what is like I said, important to them, they are not being distracted at any point for, you know, on spending time on infrastructure related or platform related issues they purely focused on. Like I said, that is, that is important to their business. Andi, The successes that we see from that it is, is that we have this integration into into our customers like a seamless approach. We work with them is a true, transparent approach to work with our customers. There's a there's an active dialogue off what they developers want to see from the environment, what the customers want to see from from from the environment, what is working well, what we need to optimize. And that is really seeing ah, really good a approach from from from us and we're seeing some some great successes in it. But it all comes down to the customer is focusing on one thing, and that is on what is important to them on. But is there business instead off. You know, like you said, focusing on the stuff that shoot me, that that should be shift left. >>Yeah. And will, um, is there anything that really stands out when you talk about that? The monitoring that you in the reporting that you give the customers Is it all self serve? You know, how did they set that up and make sure that I'm getting valuable data. That's what what my company needs. >>Yes. So that is where your custom success manager comes in is really how to customize that approach to what fit for the customers. So we've got it in the background, very much automated, but we do the tweaks Thio customize it for for the customer that makes sense for them. Some customers want to see very granular details. Other customers just want a glance over it and look at the the high level metrics what they find important. So it is finding that balance and and understanding what your customer find important, and then put that in a way that makes sense for them Now. That might sound might sound kind of obvious, but it's more difficult than you think to put data from the customer That makes sense to them, uh, in their in their context. And then, you know, be in a position where you can take the information that you receive and give your customer the the runway to plan their the application. You know, where are they trending? So be able. Dutilleux. Look. 3452 quarters 345 months to quarters ahead to say this is where you're going to be. If you continue down this path, we might need to look at shifting direction or shift workload around or at Resource is or or, you know, depending on the situation. But it's all about having that insight going forward, looking forward. Rather, um, instead off, you know, playing things by year end, looking, looking at the year. And now because then that ISS that is done and dusted, really. So it's all about what is coming down the line for us and then be able to to plan for it and have an educated conversation of with with with your customer where they want to go. >>You mentioned that part of this offering is making this available for the Docker Enterprise base. Uh, maybe, if you could explain a little bit as to you know, what's gonna be compelling for for those customers. You know what Laurentis is has built specifically for that base? >>Yeah. So, like I said, this is an offering we have available on our Miranda's cloud platform for quite a while. You've seen some great success from it. Um, we're making it now available for the Doctor Enterprise customers. So it is really a true platform as a service offering, um, on your infrastructure of choice, whether that is on prim or whether that is on public cloud, we don't really care. We'll work with customers whichever way it is. And yeah, Like I said, just give that true platform as a service experience for our customers, Onda allow them to to focus on what's important to them. >>Alright, let me let you have the final word. Will tell us what you want your customers to understand about Iran tous when they leave launchpad this year. >>Yeah, So the main thing the main theme that I want to leave with is is that you know, the the we've made significant progress over the last 62 229 months on the doc enterprise side on. We're now in a position where we're taking the next step in making these offerings available for our customers, and we're really for the customers. That's the handful of custom that we have already. My greater to these offerings with getting some really good feedback from them on it is really helping them just thio thio just to expedite. They they, you know, wherever they're gonna go, whatever they want to want to achieve the, you know, expedite, think goals on bond. It is really there to ensure that we provide a customer or customers a true, um, you know, mission critical feeling, uh, giving them the support they need when they needed at the priority or the severity or the intensity that they need as well as they provide them. The ability to to focus on what is important to them on board. Let us look after the infrastructure and platform for them. >>Well, well, okay. Congratulations on Although the work that the team's done and definitely look forward to hearing more in the future. >>Excellent. Thank you very much for your time. >>Be sure to check out all the tracks for Miranda's launchpad 2020 of course. Powered by Cuba 3. 65. Got the infrastructure. The developers Lots of good content. Both live and on demand. And I'm still minimum. Thank you for watching. Thank you.

>>from the Cube Studios in Palo Alto in Boston, connecting with thought leaders all around the world. This is a cube conversation. >>Hey, welcome back. You're ready, Jeffrey here with the Cuban Apollo Alto studios today, and we're excited. You know, we're slowly coming out of the, uh, out of the summer season. We're getting ready to jump back into the fall. Season, of course, is still covet. Everything is still digital. But you know, what we're seeing is a digital events allow a lot of things that you couldn't do in the physical space. Mainly get a lot more people to attend that don't have to get in airplanes and file over the country. So to preview this brand new inaugural event that's coming up in about a month, we have We have a new guest. He's Dave and Everen. He is the senior vice president of marketing. Former ran tous. Dave. Great to see you. >>Happy to be here today. Thank you. >>Yeah. So tell us about this inaugural event. You know, we did an event with Miranda's years ago. I had to look it up like 2014. 15. Open stack was hot and you guys sponsored a community event in the Bay Area because the open stack events used to move all over the country each and every year. But you guys said, and the top one here in the Bay Area. But now you're launching something brand new based on some new activity that you guys have been up to over the last several months. So let us give us give us the word. >>Yeah, absolutely. So we definitely have been organizing community events in a variety of open source communities over the years. And, you know, we saw really, really good success with with the Cube And are those events in opens tax Silicon Valley days? And, you know, with the way things have gone this year, we've really seen that virtual events could be very successful and provide a new, maybe slightly different form of engagement but still very high level of engagement for our guests and eso. We're excited to put this together and invite the entire cloud native industry to join us and learn about some of the things that Mantis has been working on in recent months. A zwelling as some of the interesting things that are going on in the Cloud native and kubernetes community >>Great. So it's the inaugural event is called Moran Sous launchpad 2020. The Wares and the Winds in September 16th. So we're about a month away and it's all online is their registration. Costars is free for the community. >>It's absolutely free. Eso everyone is welcome to attend You. Just visit Miranda's dot com and you'll see the info for registering for the event and we'd love it. We love to see you there. It's gonna be a fantastic event. We have multiple tracks catering to developers, operators, general industry. Um, you know, participants in the community and eso we'd be happy to see you on join us on and learn about some of the some of the things we're working on. >>That's awesome. So let's back up a step for people that have been paying as close attention as they might have. Right? So you guys purchase, um, assets from Docker at the end of last year, really taken over there, they're they're kind of enterprise solutions, and you've been doing some work with that. Now, what's interesting is we we cover docker con, um, A couple of months ago, a couple three months ago. Time time moves fast. They had a tremendously successful digital event. 70,000 registrants, people coming from all over the world. I think they're physical. Event used to be like four or 5000 people at the peak, maybe 6000 Really tremendous success. But a lot of that success was driven, really by the by the strength of the community. The docker community is so passionate. And what struck me about that event is this is not the first time these people get together. You know, this is not ah, once a year, kind of sharing of information and sharing ideas, but kind of the passion and and the friendships and the sharing of information is so, so good. You know, it's a super or, um, rich development community. You guys have really now taken advantage of that. But you're doing your Miranda's thing. You're bringing your own technology to it and really taking it to more of an enterprise solution. So I wonder if you can kind of walk people through the process of, you know, you have the acquisition late last year. You guys been hard at work. What are we gonna see on September 16. >>Sure, absolutely. And, you know, just thio Give credit Thio Docker for putting on an amazing event with Dr Khan this year. Uh, you know, you mentioned 70,000 registrants. That's an astounding number. And you know, it really is a testament thio. You know, the community that they've built over the years and continue to serve eso We're really, really happy for Docker as they kind of move into, you know, the next the next path in their journey and, you know, focus more on the developer oriented, um, solution and go to market. So, uh, they did a fantastic job with the event. And, you know, I think that they continue toe connect with their community throughout the year on That's part of what drives What drove so many attendees to the event assed faras our our history and progress with with Dr Enterprise eso. As you mentioned mid November last year, we did acquire Doctor Enterprise assets from Docker Inc and, um, right away we noticed tremendous synergy in our product road maps and even in the in the team's eso that came together really, really quickly and we started executing on a Siris of releases. Um that are starting Thio, you know, be introduced into the market. Um, you know, one was introduced in late May and that was the first major release of Dr Enterprise produced exclusively by more antis. And we're going to announce at the launch pad 2020 event. Our next major release of the Doctor Enterprise Technology, which will for the first time include kubernetes related in life cycle management related technology from Mirant is eso. It's a huge milestone for our company. Huge benefit Thio our customers on and the broader user community around Dr Enterprise. We're super excited. Thio provide a lot of a lot of compelling and detailed content around the new technology that will be announcing at the event. >>So I'm looking at the at the website with with the agenda and there's a little teaser here right in the middle of the spaceship Docker Enterprise Container Cloud. So, um, and I glanced into you got a great little layout, five tracks, keynote track D container track operations and I t developer track and keep track. But I did. I went ahead and clicked on the keynote track and I see the big reveal so I love the opening keynote at at 8 a.m. On the 76 on the September 16th is right. Um, I, Enel CEO who have had on many, many times, has the big reveal Docker Enterprise Container Cloud. So without stealing any thunder, uh, can you give us any any little inside inside baseball on on what people should expect or what they can get excited about for that big announcement? >>Sure, absolutely so I definitely don't want to steal any thunder from Adrian, our CEO. But you know, we did include a few Easter eggs, so to speak, in the website on Dr Enterprise. Container Cloud is absolutely the biggest story out of the bunch eso that's visible on the on the rocket ship as you noticed, and in the agenda it will be revealed during Adrian's keynote, and every every word in the product name is important, right? So Dr Enterprise, based on Dr Enterprise Platform Container Cloud and there's the new word in there really is Cloud eso. I think, um, people are going to be surprised at the groundbreaking territory that were forging with with this release along the lines of a cloud experience and what we are going to provide to not only I t operations and the Op Graders and Dev ops for cloud environment, but also for the developers and the experience that we could bring to developers As they become more dependent on kubernetes and get more hands on with kubernetes. We think that we're going thio provide ah lot of ways for them to be more empowered with kubernetes while at the same time lowering the bar, the bar or the barrier of entry for kubernetes. As many enterprises have have told us that you know kubernetes can be difficult for the broader developer community inside the organization Thio interact with right? So this is, uh, you know, a strategic underpinning of our our product strategy. And this is really the first step in a non going launch of technologies that we're going to make bigger netease easier for developing. >>I was gonna say the other Easter egg that's all over the agenda, as I'm just kind of looking through the agenda. It's kubernetes on 80 infrastructure multi cloud kubernetes Miranda's open stack on kubernetes. So Goober Netease plays a huge part and you know, we talk a lot about kubernetes at all the events that we cover. But as you said, kind of the new theme that we're hearing a little bit more Morris is the difficulty and actually managing it so looking, kind of beyond the actual technology to the operations and the execution in production. And it sounds like you guys might have a few things up your sleeve to help people be more successful in in and actually kubernetes in production. >>Yeah, absolutely. So, uh, kubernetes is the focus of most of the companies in our space. Obviously, we think that we have some ideas for how we can, you know, really begin thio enable enable it to fulfill its promise as the operating system for the cloud eso. If we think about the ecosystem that's formed around kubernetes, uh, you know, it's it's now really being held back on Lee by adoption user adoption. And so that's where our focus in our product strategy really lives is around. How can we accelerate the move to kubernetes and accelerate the move to cloud native applications on? But in order to provide that acceleration catalyst, you need to be able to address the needs of not only the operators and make their lives easier while still giving them the tools they need for things like policy enforcement and operational insights. At the same time, Foster, you know, a grassroots, um, upswell of developer adoption within their company on bond Really help the I t. Operations team serve their customers the developers more effectively. >>Well, Dave, it sounds like a great event. We we had a great time covering those open stack events with you guys. We've covered the doctor events for years and years and years. Eso super engaged community and and thanks for, you know, inviting us back Thio to cover this inaugural event as well. So it should be terrific. Everyone just go to Miranda's dot com. The big pop up Will will jump up. You just click on the button and you can see the full agenda on get ready for about a month from now. When when the big reveal, September 16th will happen. Well, Dave, thanks for sharing this quick update with us. And I'm sure we're talking a lot more between now in, uh, in the 16 because I know there's a cube track in there, so we look forward to interview in our are our guests is part of the part of the program. >>Absolutely. Eso welcome everyone. Join us at the event and, uh, you know, stay tuned for the big reveal. >>Everybody loves a big reveal. All right, well, thanks a lot, Dave. So he's Dave. I'm Jeff. You're watching the Cube. Thanks for watching. We'll see you next time.
