Question

• kube-apiserver：对外暴露了Kubernetes API。它是的 Kubernetes 前端控制层。它被设计为水平扩展，即通过部署更多实例来缩放。
• kube-controller-manager：运行控制器，它们是处理集群中常规任务的后台线程。逻辑上，每个控制器是一个单独的进程，但为了降低复杂性，它们都被编译成独立的可执行文件，并在单个进程中运行。这些控制器包括:
  • 节点控制器: 当节点移除时，负责注意和响应。
  • 副本控制器: 负责维护系统中每个副本控制器对象正确数量的 Pod。
  • 端点控制器: 填充端点(Endpoints) 对象(即连接 Services & Pods)。
  • 服务帐户和令牌控制器: 为新的命名空间创建默认帐户和 API 访问令牌
• kube-scheduler：监视没有分配节点的新创建的 Pod，选择一个节点供他们运行。
• etcd：用于 Kubernetes 的后端存储。存储所有集群数据。
• cloud-controller-manager：用于与底层云提供商交互的控制器。云控制器管理器可执行组件是 Kubernetes v1.6 版本中引入的 Alpha 功能。仅运行云提供商特定的控制器循环。您必须在 - kube-controller-manager 中禁用这些控制器循环，您可以通过在启动 kube-controller-manager 时将 --cloud-provider 标志设置为external来禁用控制器循环。允许云供应商代码和 Kubernetes 核心彼此独立发展，在以前的版本中，Kubernetes 核心代码依赖于云提供商特定的功能代码。在未来的版本中，云供应商的特定代码应由云供应商自己维护，并与运行 Kubernetes 的云控制器管理器相关联。以下控制器具有云提供商依赖关系:
  • 节点控制器: 用于检查云提供商以确定节点是否在云中停止响应后被删除
  • 路由控制器: 用于在底层云基础架构中设置路由
  • 服务控制器: 用于创建，更新和删除云提供商负载平衡器
  • 数据卷控制器: 用于创建，附加和装载卷，并与云提供商进行交互以协调卷

• kubelet：是主要的节点代理,它监测已分配给其节点的 Pod(通过 apiserver 或通过本地配置文件)，提供如下功能:
  • 挂载 Pod 所需要的数据卷(Volume)。
  • 下载 Pod 的 secrets。
  • 通过 Docker 运行(或通过 rkt)运行 Pod 的容器。
  • 周期性的对容器生命周期进行探测。
  • 如果需要，通过创建镜像Pod（Mirror Pod） 将 Pod 的状态报告回系统的其余部分。
  • 将节点的状态报告回系统的其余部分。
• kube-proxy：通过维护主机上的网络规则并执行连接转发，实现了Kubernetes服务抽象
• Container Runtime：运行容器的底层平台。Kubernetes支持的容器平台：Docker、containerd、cri-o、rktlet

网络插件
