So far I have mostly used Amazons EKS platform for my posts on Kubernetes. However, this is of course not the only choice - there are many other providers that offer Kubernetes in a cloud environment. One of them which is explicitly targeting developers is DigitalOcean. In this post, I will show you how easy … Continue reading Automating cluster creation on DigitalOcean
In one of my previous posts, we have looked at deployment controllers which make sure that a certain number of instances of a given pod is running at all times. Failures of pods and nodes are automatically detected and the pod is restarted. This mechanism, however, only works well if the pods are actually interchangeable … Continue reading Stateful sets with Kubernetes
In my previous post on superconducting qubits, we have seen how a flux qubit represents a qubits state as a superposition of currents in a superconducting loop. Even though flux qubits have been implemented and used successfully, most research groups today focus on different types of qubits using a charge qubit as an archetype. Charge … Continue reading Superconducting qubits – on islands, charge qubits and the transmon
In the last post, we have seen the magic of persistent volume claims in action. In this post, we will look in more details at how Kubernetes actually manages storage. Storage classes and provisioners First, we need to understand the concept of a storage class. In a typical environment, there are many different types of … Continue reading Kubernetes storage under the hood part III – storage classes and provisioning
