## Karmada: Open, Multi-Cloud, Multi-Cluster Kubernetes Orchestration
Karmada (Kubernetes Armada) is a Kubernetes management system that enables you to run your cloud-native applications across multiple Kubernetes clusters and clouds, with no changes to your applications. By speaking Kubernetes-native APIs and providing advanced scheduling capabilities, Karmada enables truly open, multi-cloud Kubernetes.
Karmada aims to provide turnkey automation for multi-cluster application management in multi-cloud and hybrid cloud scenarios,
with key features such as centralized multi-cloud management, high availability, failure recovery, and traffic scheduling.
## Why Karmada:
- __K8s Native API Compatible__
- Zero change upgrade, from single-cluster to multi-cluster
- Seamless integration of existing K8s tool chain
- __Out of the Box__
- Built-in policy sets for scenarios, including: Active-active, Remote DR, Geo Redundant, etc.
- Cross-cluster applications auto-scaling, failover and load-balancing on multi-cluster.
- __Avoid Vendor Lock-in__
- Integration with mainstream cloud providers
- Automatic allocation, migration across clusters
- Not tied to proprietary vendor orchestration
- __Centralized Management__
- Location agnostic cluster management
- Support clusters in Public cloud, on-prem or edge
- __Fruitful Multi-Cluster Scheduling Policies__
- Cluster Affinity, Multi Cluster Splitting/Rebalancing,
- Multi-Dimension HA: Region/AZ/Cluster/Provider
- __Open and Neutral__
- Jointly initiated by Internet, finance, manufacturing, teleco, cloud providers, etc.
- Target for open governance with CNCF
**Notice: this project is developed in continuation of Kubernetes [Federation v1](https://github.com/kubernetes-retired/federation) and [v2](https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubefed). Some basic concepts are inherited from these two versions.**
## Architecture
![Architecture](docs/images/architecture.png)
The Karmada Control Plane consists of the following components:
- Karmada API Server
- Karmada Controller Manager
- Karmada Scheduler
ETCD stores the karmada API objects, the API Server is the REST endpoint all other components talk to, and the Karmada Controller Manager perform operations based on the API objects you create through the API server.
The Karmada Controller Manager runs the various controllers, the controllers watch karmada objects and then talk to the underlying clusters’ API servers to create regular Kubernetes resources.
1. Cluster Controller: attach kubernetes clusters to Karmada for managing the lifecycle of the clusters by creating cluster object.
2. Policy Controller: the controller watches PropagationPolicy objects. When PropagationPolicy object is added, it selects a group of resources matching the resourceSelector and create ResourceBinding with each single resource object.
3. Binding Controller: the controller watches ResourceBinding object and create Work object corresponding to each cluster with single resource manifest.
4. Execution Controller: the controller watches Work objects.When Work objects are created, it will distribute the resources to member clusters.
## Concepts
**Resource template**: Karmada uses Kubernetes Native API definition for federated resource template, to make it easy to integrate with existing tools that already adopt on Kubernetes
**Propagation Policy**: Karmada offers standalone Propagation(placement) Policy API to define multi-cluster scheduling and spreading requirements.
- Support 1:n mapping of Policy: workload, users don't need to indicate scheduling constraints every time creating federated applications.
- With default policies, users can just interact with K8s API
**Override Policy**: Karmada provides standalone Override Policy API for specializing cluster relevant configuration automation. E.g.:
- Override image prefix according to member cluster region
- Override StorageClass according to cloud provider
The following diagram shows how Karmada resources are involved when propagating resources to member clusters.

## Quick Start
This guide will cover:
- Install `karmada` control plane components in a Kubernetes cluster which as known as `host cluster`.
- Join a member cluster to `karmada` control plane.
- Propagate an application by `karmada`.
### Demo
There are several demonstrations of common cases.
![Demo](docs/images/demo-3in1.svg)
### Prerequisites
- [Go](https://golang.org/) version v1.14+
- [kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/tools/install-kubectl/) version v1.19+
- [kind](https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/) version v0.9.0+
### Install karmada control plane
#### 1. Clone this repo to your machine:
```
# git clone https://github.com/karmada-io/karmada
```
#### 2. Change to karmada directory:
```
# cd karmada
```
#### 3. Deploy and run karmada control plane:
Choose a way:
- [I have not any cluster](#31-i-have-not-any-cluster)
- [I have present cluster for installing](#32-i-have-present-cluster-for-installing)
##### 3.1. I have not any cluster
run the following script: (It will create a host cluster by kind)
```
# hack/local-up-karmada.sh
```
The script `hack/local-up-karmada.sh` will do following tasks for you:
- Start a Kubernetes cluster to run the karmada control plane, aka. the `host cluster`.
- Build karmada control plane components based on a current codebase.
- Deploy karmada control plane components on `host cluster`.
If everything goes well, at the end of the script output, you will see similar messages as follows:
```
Local Karmada is running.
Kubeconfig for karmada in file: /root/.kube/karmada.config, so you can run:
export KUBECONFIG="/root/.kube/karmada.config"
Or use kubectl with --kubeconfig=/root/.kube/karmada.config
Please use 'kubectl config use-context <Context_Name>' to switch cluster to operate,
the following is context intro:
------------------------------------------------------
| Context Name | Purpose |
|----------------------------------------------------|
| karmada-host | the cluster karmada install in |
|----------------------------------------------------|
| karmada-apiserver | karmada control plane |
------------------------------------------------------
```
There are two contexts you can switch after the script run are:
- karmada-apiserver `kubectl config use-context karmada-apiserver`
- karmada-host `kubectl config use-context karmada-host`
The `karmada-apiserver` is the **main kubeconfig** to be used when interacting with karamda control plane, while `karmada-host` is only used for debugging karmada installation with host cluster, you can check all clusters at any time by run: `kubectl config view` and switch by `kubectl config use-context [CONTEXT_NAME]`
##### 3.2. I have present cluster for installing
Before run the following script, please make sure you are in the node or master of the cluster to install:
```
# hack/remote-up-karmada.sh <kubeconfig> <context_name>
```
`kubeconfig` is your cluster's kubeconfig that you want to install to
`context_name` is the name of context in 'kubeconfig'
If everything goes well, at the end of the script output, you will see similar messages as follows:
```
Karmada is installed.
Kubeconfig for karmada in file: /root/.kube/karmada.config, so you can run:
export KUBECONFIG="/root/.kube/karmada.config"
Or use kubectl with --kubeconfig=/root/.kube/karmada.config
Please use 'kubectl config use-context karmada-apiserver' to switch the cluster of karmada control plane
And use 'kubectl config use-context your-host' for debugging karmada installation
```
#### Tips
- Please make sure you can access google cloud registry: k8s.gcr.io
- Install script will download golang package, if your server is in the mainland China, you may set go proxy like this `export GOPROXY=https://goproxy.cn`
### Join member cluster
In the following steps, we are going to create a member cluster and then join the cluster to
karmada control plane.
#### 1. Create member cluster
We are going to create a cluster named `member1` and we want the `KUBECONFIG` file
in `$HOME/.kube/karmada.config`. Run following command:
```
# hack/create-cluster.sh member1 $HOME/.kube/karmada.config
```
The script `hack/create-cluster.sh` will create a standalone cluster by kind.
#### 2. Join member cluster to karmada control plane
The command `karmadactl` will help to join the member cluster to karmada control plane,
before that, we should switch to karmada apiserver:
```
# kubectl config use-context karmada-apiserver
```
Then, install `karmadactl` command and join the member cluster:
```
# go get github.com/karmada-io/karmada/cmd/karmadactl
# karmadactl join member1 --cluster-kubeconfig=$HOME/.kube/karmada.config
```
The `karmadactl join` command will create a `Cluster` object to reflect the member cluster.
### 3. Check member cluster status
Now, check the member clusters from karmada control plane by following command:
```
# kubectl get clusters
NAME VERSION MODE READY AGE
member1 v1.20.2 Push True 66s
```
### Propagate application
In the following steps, we are going to propagate a deployment by karmada.
#### 1. Create nginx deployment in karmada.
First, create a [deployment](samples/nginx/deployment.yaml) named `nginx`:
```
# kubectl create -f samples/nginx/deployment.yaml
```
#### 2. Create PropagationPolicy that will propagate nginx to member cluster
Then, we need create a policy to drive the deployment to our member cluster.
```
# kubectl create -f samples/nginx/propagationpolicy.yaml
```
#### 3. Check the deployment status from karmada
You can check deployment status from karmada, don't need to access member cluster:
```
# kubectl get deployment
NAME READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE AGE
nginx 1/1 1 1 43s
```
