* Review variables available in AWS kubernetes and workers
modules and documentation
* Switching between spot and on-demand has worked since
Terraform v0.12
* Generally, there are too many knobs. Less useful ones
should be de-emphasized or removed
* Remove `cluster_domain_suffix` documentation
* Document worker pools `node_labels` variable to set the
initial node labels for a homogeneous set of workers
* Document `worker_node_labels` convenience variable to
set the initial node labels for default worker nodes
* Drop `node-role.kubernetes.io/master` and
`node-role.kubernetes.io/node` node labels
* Kubelet (v1.16) now rejects the node labels used
in the kubectl get nodes ROLES output
* https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/75457
* Change default controller_type to Standard_B2s. A B2s is cheaper
by $17/month and provides 2 vCPU, 4GB RAM (vs 1 vCPU, 3.5GB RAM)
* Change default worker_type to Standard_DS1_v2. F1 was the previous
generation. The DS1_v2 is newer, similar cost, more memory, and still
supports Low Priority mode, if desired
* Use unique dashboard ID so that multiple replicas of Grafana
serve dashboards with uniform paths
* Fix issue where refreshing a dashboard served by one replica
could show a 404 unless the request went to the same replica
* terraform-provider-aws v2.23.0 allows AWS root block devices
to enable encryption by default.
* Require updating terraform-provider-aws to v2.23.0 or higher
* Enable root EBS device encryption by default for controller
instances and worker instances in auto-scaling groups
For comparison:
* Google Cloud persistent disks have been encrypted by
default for years
* Azure managed disk encryption is not ready yet (#486)
* Add a CoreDNS dashboard originally based on an upstream dashboard,
but now customized according to preferences
* Add an Nginx Ingress Controller based on an upstream dashboard,
but customized according to preferences
* Add all Azure controllers to the apiserver load balancer
backend address pool
* Previously, kube-apiserver availability relied on the 0th
controller being up. Multi-controller was just providing etcd
data redundancy
* Allow updating terraform-provider-ct to any release
beyond v0.3.2, but below v1.0. This relaxes the prior
constraint that allowed only v0.3.y provider versions
* Run kube-apiserver as a non-root user (nobody). User
no longer needs to bind low number ports.
* On most platforms, the kube-apiserver load balancer listens
on 6443 and fronts controllers with kube-apiserver pods using
port 6443. Google Cloud TCP proxy load balancers cannot listen
on 6443. However, GCP's load balancer can be made to listen on
443, while kube-apiserver uses 6443 across all platforms.
* Fix a GCP errata item https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/wiki/Errata
* Removal of a Google Cloud cluster often required 2 runs of
`terraform apply` because network resource deletes timeout
after 4m. Raise the network deletion timeout to 6m to
ensure apply only needs to be run once to remove a cluster
* google_compute_backend_services use nested blocks to define
backends (instance groups heterogeneous controllers)
* Use Terraform v0.12.x dynamic blocks so the apiserver backend
service can refer to (up to zone-many) controller instance groups
* Previously, with Terraform v0.11.x, the apiserver backend service
had to list a fixed set of backends to span controller nodes across
zones in multi-controller setups. 3 backends were used because each
GCP region offered at least 3 zones. Single-controller clusters had
the cosmetic ugliness of unused instance groups
* Allow controllers to span more than 3 zones if avilable in a
region (e.g. currently only us-central1, with 4 zones)

* Require ct ~> v0.3.2 to support Terraform v0.12
* This change affects users who use worker pools on AWS, GCP, or
Azure with a Container Linux derivative
* Rename worker pool modules' `count` variable to `worker_count`,
because `count` will be a reserved variable name in Terraform v0.12
* Fix to remove a trailing slash that was erroneously introduced
in the scripting that updated from v1.14.1 to v1.14.2
* Workaround before this fix was to re-run `terraform init`
* Introduce "calico" as a `networking` option on Azure and DigitalOcean
using Calico's new VXLAN support (similar to flannel). Flannel remains
the default on these platforms for now.
* Historically, DigitalOcean and Azure only allowed Flannel as the
CNI provider, since those platforms don't support IPIP traffic that
was previously required for Calico.
* Looking forward, its desireable for Calico to become the default
across Typhoon clusters, since it provides NetworkPolicy and a
consistent experience
* No changes to AWS, GCP, or bare-metal where Calico remains the
default CNI provider. On these platforms, IPIP mode will always
be used, since its available and more performant than vxlan
* DigitalOcean clusters must secure copy a kubeconfig to
worker nodes, but Terraform could decide to try copying
before firewall rules have been added to allow SSH access.
* Add an explicit dependency on adding firewall rules first
* Change flannel port from the kernel default 8472 to the
IANA assigned VXLAN port 4789
* Update firewall rules or security groups for VXLAN
* Why now? Calico now offers its own VXLAN backend so
standardizing on the IANA port will simplify config
* https://github.com/coreos/flannel/blob/master/Documentation/backends.md#vxlan
* This reverts commit 6e5d66cf66
* kube-state-metrics v1.6.0-rc.0 fires KubeDeploymentReplicasMismatch
alerts where its own Deployment doesn't have replicas available,
(kube_deployment_status_replicas_available) even though all replicas
are available according to kubectl inspection
* This problem was present even with the CSR ClusterRole fix
(https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics/pull/717)
* Add ability to load balance TCP/UDP applications (e.g. NodePort)
* Output the load balancer ID as `loadbalancer_id`
* Output `worker_security_group_name` and `worker_address_prefix`
for extending firewall rules
* Add an `enable_aggregation` variable to enable the kube-apiserver
aggregation layer for adding extension apiservers to clusters
* Aggregation is **disabled** by default. Typhoon recommends you not
enable aggregation. Consider whether less invasive ways to achieve your
goals are possible and whether those goals are well-founded
* Enabling aggregation and extension apiservers increases the attack
surface of a cluster and makes extensions a part of the control plane.
Admins must scrutinize and trust any extension apiserver used.
* Passing a v1.14 CNCF conformance test requires aggregation be enabled.
Having an option for aggregation keeps compliance, but retains the
stricter security posture on default clusters
* Refresh rules and dashboards from upstreams
* Add new Kubernetes "workload" dashboards
* View pods in a workload (deployment/daemonset/statefulset)
* View workloads in a namespace
* Define firewall rules on DigitialOcean to match rules used on AWS,
GCP, and Azure
* Output `controller_tag` and `worker_tag` to simplify custom firewall
rule creation
* Add ability to load balance TCP applications (e.g. NodePort)
* Output the network load balancer ARN as `nlb_id`
* Accept a `worker_target_groups` (ARN) list to which worker
instances should be added
* AWS NLBs and target groups don't support UDP
* Background: A managed instance group of workers is used in backend
services for global load balancing (HTTP/HTTPS Ingress) and output
for custom global load balancing use cases
* Add worker instances to a target pool load balancing TCP/UDP
applications (NodePort or proxied). Output as `worker_target_pool`
* Health check for workers with a healthy Ingress controller. Forward
rules (regional) to target pools don't support different external and
internal ports so choosing nodes with Ingress allows proxying as a
workaround
* A target pool is a logical grouping only. It doesn't add costs to
clusters or worker pools
* Allow traffic from Grafana to Prometheus in monitoring
* Allow traffic from Prometheus to Prometheus in monitoring
* NetworkPolicy denies non-whitelisted traffic. Define policy
to allow other access
* Add calico-ipam CRDs and RBAC permissions
* Switch IPAM from host-local to calico-ipam
* `calico-ipam` subnets `ippools` (defaults to pod CIDR) into
`ipamblocks` (defaults to /26, but set to /24 in Typhoon)
* `host-local` subnets the pod CIDR based on the node PodCIDR
field (set via kube-controller-manager as /24's)
* Create a custom default IPv4 IPPool to ensure the block size
is kept at /24 to allow 110 pods per node (Kubernetes default)
* Retaining host-local was slightly preferred, but Calico v3.6
is migrating all usage to calico-ipam. The codepath that skipped
calico-ipam for KDD was removed
* https://docs.projectcalico.org/v3.6/release-notes/
* Heapster addon powers `kubectl top`
* In early Kubernetes, people legitimately used and expected
`kubectl top` to work, so the optional addon was provided
* Today the standards are different. Many better monitoring
tools exist, that are also less coupled to Kubernetes "kubectl
top" reliance on a non-core extensions means its not in-scope
for minimal Kubernetes clusters. No more exceptionalism
* Finally, Heapster isn't that useful anymore. Its manifests
have no need for Typhoon-specific modification
* Look to prior releases if you still wish to apply heapster
* Restore the original special-casing of DigitalOcean Kubelets
* Fix node metadata InternalIP being set to the IP of the default
gateway on DigitalOcean nodes (regressed in v1.12.3)
* Reverts the "pretty" node names on DigitalOcean (worker-2 vs IP)
* Closes#424 (full details)
* Require an iPXE-enabled network boot environment with support for
TLS downloads. PXE clients must chainload to iPXE firmware compiled
with `DOWNLOAD_PROTO_HTTPS` enabled ([crypto](https://ipxe.org/crypto))
* iPXE's pre-compiled firmware binaries do _not_ enable HTTPS. Admins
should build iPXE from source with support enabled
* Affects the Container Linux and Flatcar Linux install profiles that
pull from public downloads. No effect when cached_install=true
or using Fedora Atomic, as those download from Matchbox
* Add `download_protocol` variable. Recognizing boot firmware TLS
support is difficult in some environments, set the protocol to "http"
for the old behavior (discouraged)
* Allow terraform-provider-aws >= v1.13, but < 3.0. No change
to the minimum version, but allow using v2.x.y releases
* Verify compatability with terraform-provider-aws v2.1.0
* Resolve in-addr.arpa and ip6.arpa DNS PTR requests for Kubernetes
service IPs and pod IPs
* Previously, CoreDNS was configured to resolve in-addr.arpa PTR
records for service IPs (but not pod IPs)
* Support terraform-provider-google v1.19.0, v1.19.1, v1.20.0
and v2.0+ (and allow for future 2.x.y releases)
* Require terraform-provider-google v1.19.0 or newer. v1.19.0
introduced `network_interface` fields `network_ip` and `nat_ip`
to deprecate `address` and `assigned_nat_ip`. Those deprecated
fields are removed in terraform-provider-google v2.0
* https://github.com/terraform-providers/terraform-provider-google/releases/tag/v2.0.0
* Assign pod priorityClassNames to critical cluster and node
components (higher is higher priority) to inform node out-of-resource
eviction order and scheduler preemption and scheduling order
* Priority Admission Controller has been enabled since Typhoon
v1.11.1
* Intel Haswell or better is available in every zone around the world
* Neither Kubernetes nor Typhoon have a particular minimum processor
family. However, a few Google Cloud zones still default to Sandy/Ivy
bridge (scheduled to shift April 2019). Price is only based on machine
type so it is beneficial to opt for the next processor family
* Intel Haswell is a suitable minimum since it still allows plenty of
liberty in choosing any region or machine type
* Likely a slight increase to preemption probability in a few zones,
but any lower probability on Sandy/Ivy bridge is due to lower
desirability as they're phased out
* https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/regions-zones/
* Collate upstream rules, alerts, and dashboards and tune for use
in Typhoon
* Previously, a well-chosen (but older) set of rules, alerts, and
dashboards were maintained to reflect metric name changes
* Prometheus queries from some upstreams use joins of node-exporter
and kube-state-metrics metrics by (namespace,pod). Add the Kubernetes
pod name to service endpoint metrics
* Rename the kubernetes_namespace field to namespace
* Honor labels since kube-state-metrics already include a `pod` field
that should not be overridden
* Fix a regression caused by lowering the Kubelet TLS client
certificate to system:nodes group (#100) since dropping
cluster-admin dropped the Kubelet's ability to delete nodes.
* On clouds where workers can scale down (manual terraform apply,
AWS spot termination, Azure low priority deletion), worker shutdown
runs the delete-node.service to remove a node to prevent NotReady
nodes from accumulating
* Allow Kubelets to delete cluster nodes via system:nodes group. Kubelets
acting with system:node and kubelet-delete ClusterRoles is still an
improvement over acting as cluster-admin
* DNS zones served by AWS Route53 may use AWS's special alias records
(other DNS providers would use a CNAME) to resolve the ingress NLB.
Alias records require the NLB DNS name's DNS zone id (not the cluster
`dns_zone_id`)
* System components that require certificates signed by the cluster
CA can submit a CSR to the apiserver, have an administrator inspect
and approve it, and be issued a certificate
* Configure kube-controller-manager to sign Approved CSR's using the
cluster CA private key
* Admins are responsible for approving or denying CSRs, otherwise,
no certificate is issued. Read the Kubernetes docs carefully and
verify the entity making the request and the authorization level
* https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tls/managing-tls-in-a-cluster
* Kubelets can use a lower-privilege TLS client certificate with
Org system:nodes and a binding to the system:node ClusterRole
* Admin kubeconfig's continue to belong to Org system:masters to
provide cluster-admin (available in assets/auth/kubeconfig or as
a Terraform output kubeconfig-admin)
* Remove bare-metal output variable kubeconfig
* Add ServiceAccounts and ClusterRoleBindings for kube-apiserver
and kube-scheduler
* Remove the ClusterRoleBinding for the kube-system default ServiceAccount
* Rename the CA certificate CommonName for consistency with upstream
* T3 is the next generation general purpose burstable
instance type. Compared with t2.small, the t3.small is
cheaper, has 2 vCPU (instead of 1) and provides 5 Gbps
of pod-to-pod bandwidth (instead of 1 Gbps)
* Provide migration instructions for upgrading terraform-provider-ct
in-place for v1.12.2+ clusters
* Require switching from ~/.terraformrc to the Terraform third-party
plugins directory ~/.terraform.d/plugins/
* Require Container Linux 1688.5.3 or newer
* On GCP, kubectl port-forward connections to pods are closed
after a timeout (unlike AWS NLB's or Azure load balancers)
* Increase the GCP apiserver backend service timeout from 1 minute
to 5 minutes to be more similar to AWS/Azure LB behavior
* Example manifests aim to provide a read-only dashboard visible
to any users with network access (i.e. kubectl port-forward, LAN)
* Problem: Grafana always has an admin user, even with the user
management system disabled
* Disable the login form to prevent admin login
* Switch tutorials from using ~/.terraformrc to using the 3rd-party
plugin directory so 3rd-party plugins can be pinned
* Continue to show using terraform-provider-ct v0.2.2. Updating to
a newer version is only safe once all managed clusters are v1.12.2
or higher
* Calico Felix has been reporting anonymous usage data about the
version and cluster size, which violates Typhoon's privacy policy
where analytics should be opt-in only
* Add a variable enable_reporting (default: false) to allow opting
in to reporting usage data to Calico (or future components)
* Fix issue where Azure defaults to Deallocate eviction policy,
which required manually restarting deallocated workers
* Require terraform-provider-azurerm v1.19+ to support setting
the eviction_policy
* loop sends an initial query to detect infinite forwarding
loops in configured upstream DNS servers and fast exit with
an error (its a fatal misconfiguration on the network that
will otherwise cause resolvers to consume memory/CPU until
crashing, masking the problem)
* https://github.com/coredns/coredns/tree/master/plugin/loop
* loadbalance randomizes the ordering of A, AAAA, and MX records
in responses to provide round-robin load balancing (as usual,
clients may still cache responses though)
* https://github.com/coredns/coredns/tree/master/plugin/loadbalance
* Prefer InternalIP and ExternalIP over the node's hostname,
to match upstream behavior and kubeadm
* Previously, hostname-override was used to set node names
to internal IP's to work around some cloud providers not
resolving hostnames for instances (e.g. DO droplets)
* Updating the `terraform-provider-ct` plugin is known to produce
a `user_data` diff in all pre-existing clusters. Applying the
diff to pre-existing cluster destroys controller nodes
* Ignore changes to controller `user_data`. Once all managed
clusters use a release containing this change, it is possible
to update the `terraform-provider-ct` plugin (worker `user_data`
will still be modified)
* Changing the module `ref` for an existing cluster and
re-applying is still NOT supported (although this PR
would protect controllers from being destroyed)
* Allowing serving IPv6 applications via Kubernetes Ingress
on Typhoon Google Cloud clusters
* Add `ingress_static_ipv6` output variable for use in AAAA
DNS records
* Improve the workers "round-robin" DNS FQDN that is created
with each cluster by adding AAAA records
* CNAME's resolving to the DigitalOcean `workers_dns` output
can be followed to find a droplet's IPv4 or IPv6 address
* The CNI portmap plugin doesn't support IPv6. Hosting IPv6
apps is possible, but requires editing the nginx-ingress
addon with `hostNetwork: true`
* Heapster can now get nodes (i.e. kubelets) from the apiserver and
source metrics from the Kubelet authenticated API (10250) instead of
the Kubelet HTTP read-only API (10255)
* https://github.com/kubernetes/heapster/blob/master/docs/source-configuration.md
* Use the heapster service account token via Kubelet bearer token
authn/authz.
* Permit Heapster to skip CA verification. The CA cert does not contain
IP SANs and cannot since nodes get random IPs that aren't known upfront.
Heapster obtains the node list from the apiserver, so the risk of
spoofing a node is limited. For the same reason, Prometheus scrapes
must skip CA verification for scraping Kubelet's provided by the apiserver.
* https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/blob/v1.12.1/addons/prometheus/config.yaml#L68
* Create a heapster ClusterRole to work around the default Kubernetes
`system:heapster` ClusterRole lacking the proper GET `nodes/stats`
access. See https://github.com/kubernetes/heapster/issues/1936
* Support bare-metal cached_install=true mode with Flatcar Linux
where assets are fetched from the Matchbox assets cache instead
of from the upstream Flatcar download server
* Skipped in original Flatcar support to keep it simple
https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon/pull/209
* Run at least two replicas of CoreDNS to better support
rolling updates (previously, kube-dns had a pod nanny)
* On multi-master clusters, set the CoreDNS replica count
to match the number of masters (e.g. a 3-master cluster
previously used replicas:1, now replicas:3)
* Add AntiAffinity preferred rule to favor distributing
CoreDNS pods across controller nodes nodes
* Continue to ensure scheduler and controller-manager run
at least two replicas to support performing kubectl edits
on single-master clusters (no change)
* For multi-master clusters, set scheduler / controller-manager
replica count to the number of masters (e.g. a 3-master cluster
previously used replicas:2, now replicas:3)
* Require a terraform-provider-digitalocean plugin version of
1.0 or higher within the same major version (e.g. allow 1.1 but
not 2.0)
* Change requirement from ~> 0.1.2 (which allowed up to but not
including 1.0 release)
* If using --enable-ssl-passthrough or exposing TCP/UDP services,
be aware of https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/pull/3038
* Workarounds until the fix merges are to stay on 0.17.1, use the
suggested development image, or revert to securityContext
`runAsNonRoot: false` for a while (less secure)
* Add new bird and felix readiness checks
* Read MTU from ConfigMap veth_mtu
* Add RBAC read for serviceaccounts
* Remove invalid description from CRDs
* Broaden internal-etcd firewall rule to allow etcd client
traffic (2379) from other controller nodes
* Previously, kube-apiservers were only able to connect to their
node's local etcd peer. While master node outages were tolerated,
reaching a healthy peer took longer than neccessary in some cases
* Reduce time needed to bootstrap a cluster
* Remove controller_networkds and worker_networkds variables. These
variables were always listed as experimental, unsupported, and excluded
from documentation in anticipation of Container Linux Config snippets
* Use Container Linux Config snippets on bare-metal instead. They
provide safer, more powerful, and more elegant host customization
* Release v1.11.1 erroneously left Fedora Atomic clusters using
the v1.11.0 Kubelet. The rest of the control plane ran v1.11.1
as expected
* Update Kubelet from v1.11.0 to v1.11.1 so Fedora Atomic matches
Container Linux
* Container Linux modules were not affected
* Switch Ingress from regional network load balancers to global
HTTP/TCP Proxy load balancing
* Reduce cost by ~$19/month per cluster. Google bills the first 5
global and regional forwarding rules separately. Typhoon clusters now
use 3 global and 0 regional forwarding rules.
* Worker pools no longer include an extraneous load balancer. Remove
worker module's `ingress_static_ip` output.
* Add `ingress_static_ipv4` output variable
* Add `worker_instance_group` output to allow custom global load
balancing
* Deprecate `controllers_ipv4_public` module output
* Deprecate `ingress_static_ip` module output. Use `ingress_static_ipv4`
* Both flannel and Calico support host port via `portmap`
* Allows writing NetworkPolicies that reference ingress pods in `from`
or `to`. HostNetwork pods were difficult to write network policy for
since they could circumvent the CNI network to communicate with pods on
the same node.
* Basic monitoring (free) is sufficient for casual console browsing
* Detailed monitoring (paid) is not leveraged for CloudWatch anyway
* Favor Prometheus for cloud-agnostic metrics, aggregation, and alerting
* Simplify clusters to come with a single NLB
* Listen for apiserver traffic on port 6443 and forward
to controllers (with healthy apiserver)
* Listen for ingress traffic on ports 80/443 and forward
to workers (with healthy ingress controller)
* Reduce cost of default clusters by 1 NLB ($18.14/month)
* Keep using CNAME records to the `ingress_dns_name` NLB and
the nginx-ingress addon for Ingress (up to a few million RPS)
* Users with heavy traffic (many million RPS) can create their
own separate NLB(s) for Ingress and use the new output worker
target groups
* Fix issue where additional worker pools come with an
extraneous network load balancer
* Adjust firewall rules, security groups, cloud load balancers,
and generated kubeconfig's
* Facilitates some future simplifications and cost reductions
* Bare-Metal users who exposed kube-apiserver on a WAN via their
router or load balancer will need to adjust its configuration.
This is uncommon, most apiserver are on LAN and/or behind VPN
so no routing infrastructure is configured with the port number
* Choose the Container Linux derivative Flatcar Linux on
bare-metal by setting os_channel to flatcar-stable, flatcar-beta
or flatcar-alpha
* As with Container Linux from Red Hat, the version (os_version)
must correspond to the channel being used
* Thank you to @dongsupark from Kinvolk
* Use Kubelet bearer token authn/authz to scrape metrics
* Drop RBAC permission from nodes/proxy to nodes/metrics
* Stop proxying kubelet scrapes through the apiserver, since
this required higher privilege (nodes/proxy) and can add
load to the apiserver on large clusters
* Replace os_channel variable with os_image to align naming
across clouds. Users who set this option to stable, beta, or
alpha should now set os_image to coreos-stable, coreos-beta,
or coreos-alpha.
* Default os_image to coreos-stable. This continues to use
the most recent image from the stable channel as always.
* Allow Container Linux derivative Flatcar Linux by setting
os_image to `flatcar-stable`, `flatcar-beta`, `flatcar-alpha`
* Raise minimum Terraform version to v0.11.0
* Terraform v0.11.x has been supported since Typhoon v1.9.2
and Terraform v0.10.x was last released in Nov 2017. I'd like
to stop worrying about v0.10.x and remove migration docs as
a later followup
* Migration docs docs/topics/maintenance.md#terraform-v011x
* A data volume (emptyDir) is mounted to /var/lib/prometheus
* Users could swap emptyDir for any desired volume if data
persistence is desired. Prometheus previously defaulted to
keeping its data in ./data relative to /prometheus. Override
this behavior to store data in /var/lib/prometheus
* Add `worker_price` to allow worker spot instances. Defaults
to empty string for the worker autoscaling group to use regular
on-demand instances.
* Add `spot_price` to internal `workers` module for spot worker
pools
* Note: Unlike GCP `preemptible` workers, spot instances require
you to pick a bid price.
