Kubernetes 1.0 and user management #1

Open ghost opened 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

Dear Hassan,

I was going through the feature set of the assignment where I have to create a basic UI where a user can interact and create/stop services. Meanwhile I was going through features set introduced in kubernetes 1.1.0. It already provides us with User accounts management and service accounts management. It pretty much covers most of the requirement mentioned in the assignment. My question is, if there is already something exist in the community then why we reinvent the wheel? Can I deploy kubernetes and create services on top of it? Or do I must have to do as we discussed?

Please reply to this query. Thanks

Hi.

Yes, we need to build them as part of assignment.

Ok I'll write a document and will share it with you soon. Thanks

Just to be clear, for any of the features, it is not necessary to build it from scratch.

For instance, user authentication and management should not be rebuilt. We can use any off the shelf solution to work with. Be it Kubernetes solution / any other libraries for this.

My understanding is that, kubernetes offers more than just user management. We can user off the shelf solution for user management, but not for implementing environment-on-demand
