  1. Install volumes
  2. deploy database
  3. update sentry
  4. deploy sentry

And with Kubernetes?

Kompose

  • kompose up
  • kompose convert

experience

  • microservices demo (sock shop)
  • example voting app
  • scone cli (sentry)

Limitation of Kompose

 

  • tmpfs
  • build management
  • volume management

tmpfs

 queue-master:
    image: weaveworksdemos/queue-master
    hostname: queue-master
    volumes:
      - /var/run/docker.sock:/...
    restart: always
    cap_drop:
      - all
    cap_add:
      - NET_BIND_SERVICE
    read_only: true
    tmpfs:
      - /tmp:rw,noexec,nosuid

      restartPolicy: Always
      volumes:

build

vote:
    build: ./vote
    command: python app.py
    volumes:
     - ./vote:/app
    ports:
      - "5000:80"
    networks:
      - front-tier
      - back-tier

    io.kompose.service: vote
  name: vote
spec:
  # ...
  template:

        - app.py
        image: vote
        name: vote
        # ... 
status: {}

Not yet supported

  • push image to a registry
  • synchronize the volume in every node

volume management

Volume

PVC

PV

emptyDir

hostPath

nfs

gcePersistentDisk

...

volume in Kubernetes

PV

  • size
  • storageClass

emptyDir

 

 

hostPath

nfs

gcePersistentDisk

PVC

  • size
  • storageClass

emptyDir

...

volume management

  • No One to One conversion
  • emptyDir
  • PVC creation
    • but no StorageClass... 
    • need to be edited

Conclusion

  • tmpfs => bug, will be fixed
  • build => difficult, but avoidable
  • volume => difficult, but scriptable
  • ... 

Evaluation

  • example voting app
  • microservices demo

example voting app

latency when sending get requests (vote)

microservices demo

latency when sending post requests (/orders)

Conclusion

  • Kompose is usable, but not alone
  • No efficiency issue
