Kubemark

  1. Enable realistic large-scale performance test with small size of K8s cluster
  2. Scripts are based on K8s created by aks-engine.
  • It seems it does not work with aks since aks does not allow adding hollownode to a managed master.

How to use kubemark for NPM scale performance test

  1. Create two K8s clusters by using aks-engine
  • Master K8s cluster: one master node and one agent node are enough. NPM will be deployed on agent node with azure-npm-with-kubemark.yaml
  • External K8s cluster: hollownodes will be deployed as pods. You may decide how many physical node are deployed.
  1. Change json filenames after creating both K8s clusters and locate this directory.
  • Name master.json from Master K8s cluster,
  • Name external.json from External K8s cluster
  1. Run configure-hollowNode-on-external-cluster.sh which will set up necessary information on External K8s cluster.
  • Basically it gives the master node information of Master K8s cluster. So, hollownodes on External K8s cluster can connect to the master node of Master K8s cluster
  1. Deploy hollownode pods on External K8s cluster with hollow-node.yaml
  • Use hollownodes.sh helper script.
  • Configure replica spec in hollow-node.yaml. Current value is 10. So, max num of pods on 10 hollownodes are 10 * (max num of pods on one node).
  1. Deploy NPM pod on agent node of Master K8s cluster with azure-npm-with-kubemark.yaml.
  • azure-npm-with-kubemark.yaml is configured to only deploy one NPM pod on agent node of Master K8s cluster
  • Use npm.sh.
  1. After confirming all hollownode pods running on External K8s cluster are connected to Master K8s cluster as nodes, deploying pods for scaling test.
  • Use pods.sh - it deploys deployment resources located in deployments directory.
  • Configure replica spec in yaml files in deployments directory.

To build kubemark container image

  1. Use kubemark-random-ip-addr-for-pod branch
  • It has a patch to assign random IP address to pods.
  1. Use build-kubemark-docker.sh script
cd cluster/images/kubemark
./build-kubemark-docker.sh
