Kubernetes - DaemonSets
DaemonSets can be a really useful tool for managing the health and operation of the pods within a Kubernetes cluster. In this post we’ll explore a use case for a DaemonSet, why we need them, and an example in the lab. DaemonSets - The Theory DaemonSets are actually pretty easy to explain. A DaemonSet is a Kubernetes construct that ensures a pod is running on every node (where eligible) in a cluster. This means that if we were to create a DaemonSet on our six node cluster (3 master, 3 workers), the DaemonSet would schedule the defined pods on each of the nodes for a total of six pods.
