🎡 Kubernetes Setup with WordPress using Ansible 🎡
🔰 What is Kubernetes ?
👉🏻 Kubernetes is a portable, extensible, open-source platform for managing containerized workloads and services, that facilitates both declarative configuration and automation. It has a large, rapidly growing ecosystem. Kubernetes services, support, and tools are widely available.
🔰 Why you need Kubernetes and what it can do ?
Containers are a good way to bundle and run your applications. In a production environment, you need to manage the containers that run the applications and ensure that there is no downtime. For example, if a container goes down, another container needs to start. Wouldn’t it be easier if this behavior was handled by a system? That’s how Kubernetes comes to the rescue! Kubernetes provides you with a framework to run distributed systems resiliently. It takes care of scaling and failover for your application, provides deployment patterns, and more. For example, Kubernetes can easily manage a canary deployment for your system.
🎡 Kubernetes provides you with:
👉🏻 Service discovery and load balancing
👉🏻 Storage orchestration
👉🏻 Automated rollouts and rollbacks
👉🏻 Automatic bin packing
👉🏻 Self-healing
👉🏻 Secret and configuration management
🔰 What is Ansible?
Ansible is a configuration management system written in Python using a declarative markup language to describe configurations. It is used to automate software configuration and deployment.
🔰 MYSQL :
A relational database organizes data into one or more data tables in which data types may be related to each other; these relations help structure the data. SQL is a language programmers use to create, modify and extract data from the relational database, as well as control user access to the database. In addition to relational databases and SQL, an RDBMS like MySQL works with an operating system to implement a relational database in a computer’s storage system, manages users, allows for network access and facilitates testing database integrity and creation of backups.
🔰 WordPress :
WordPress is a free and open-source content management system (CMS) written in PHP and paired with a MySQL or MariaDB database.
🔰 Configure K8S Multi Node Cluster over AWS Cloud using Ansible :
🔰 Let’s Begin…
We don’t have any hosts or instances running
1. Launching EC2 Instances using Ansible :
>>> Create Role :
ansible-galaxy init ec2
>>> In tasks file :
ec2:
key_name: "{{ key_name }}"
instance_type: "{{ instance_type }}"
image: "{{ image_id }}"
wait: yes
count: "{{ count }}"
# instance_tags:
# name: "sample_os"
vpc_subnet_id: "{{ subnet_id }}"
assign_public_ip: yes
state: present
region: "{{ region }}"
group_id: "{{ sg_group_id }}"
aws_access_key: "{{ aws_access_key }}"
aws_secret_key: "{{ aws_secret_key }}"
instance_tags:
Name: "{{ item }}"
loop: "{{ OS_name }}">>> In vars file :

instance_type: "t2.micro"
OS_name:
- "K8S_Master"
- "K8S_Node1"
- "K8S_Node2">>> In playbook setup.yml :
- hosts: localhost
gather_facts: False
#vars_files: secret.yml
roles:
- name: "EC2 Launch"
role: /root/task23/k8s/ec2/>>> Run the playbook :
ansible-playbook setup.yml
👉🏻 Instances launched and hosts file is been updated
2. Setting Up Master Node and Worker Nodes
In Master Node,
>>> Create Role :
ansible-galaxy init k8s_master
>>> In tasks file :
