Integration with Cluster API Providers
|
|
======================================
|
|
|
|
The `Cluster-API`_ (CAPI) is a Kubernetes project to bring declarative,
|
|
Kubernetes-style APIs to cluster creation, configuration, and management. By
|
|
leveraging the Cluster-API for cloud provisioning, Airship takes advantage
|
|
of upstream efforts to build Kubernetes clusters and manage their lifecycle.
|
|
Most importantly, we can leverage a number of ``CAPI`` providers that already
|
|
exist. This allows Airship deployments to target both public and private
|
|
clouds, such as Azure, AWS, and OpenStack.
|
|
|
|
The Site Authoring Guide and Deployment Guide in this document focus on
|
|
deployment on the bare metal infrastructure, where Airship utilizes the
|
|
``Metal3-IO`` Cluster API Provider for Managed Bare Metal Hardware (CAPM3) and
|
|
Cluster API Bootstrap Provider Kubeadmin (CABPK).
|
|
|
|
There are Cluster-API Providers that support Kubernetes deployments on top of
|
|
already provisioned infrastructure, enabling Bring Your Own bare metal use
|
|
cases as well. Here is a list of references on how to use Airshipctl to create
|
|
Cluster API management cluster and workload clusters on various different
|
|
infrastructure providers:

* `Airshipctl and Cluster API Docker Integration`_
|
|
* `Airshipctl and Cluster API Openstack Integration`_
|
|
* `Airshipctl and Cluster API GCP Provider Integration`_

|
* `Airshipctl and Azure Cloud Platform Integration`_
