# Scalability Special Interest Group
|
|
|
|
SIG Scalability is responsible for defining and driving scalability goals for Kubernetes. We also coordinate and contribute to general system-wide scalability and performance improvements (not falling into the charter of other individual SIGs) by driving large architectural changes and finding bottlenecks, as well as provide guidance and consultations about any scalability and performance related aspects of Kubernetes. <br/> We are actively working on finding and removing various scalability bottlenecks which should lead us towards pushing system's scalability higher. This may include going beyond 5k nodes in the future - although that's not our priority as of now, this is very deeply in our area of interest and we are happy to guide and collaborate on any efforts towards that goal as long as they are not sacrificing on overall Kubernetes architecture (by making it non-maintainable, non-understandable, etc.).
|
|
|
|
The [charter](charter.md) defines the scope and governance of the Scalability Special Interest Group.

# Details about SIG-Scalability sub-projects
|
|
|
|
## Kubernetes scalability definition
|
|
|
|
Defining what does it mean that "Kubernetes scales".
|
|
This includes defining (or approving) individual performance and scalability
|
|
related SLIs/SLOs, ensuring they are all oriented on user experience and
|
|
consistent with each other.
|
|
|
|
Measuring and publishing limits within which Kubernetes is supposed to scale
|
|
as defined above and providing recommendations about setting clusters in
|
|
scalable and performant ways.
|
|
|
|
* [Kubernetes Scalability SLIs/SLOs](./slos/slos.md).
|
|
|
|
## Kubernetes scalability governance
|
|
|
|
Establishing and documenting best practises on how do design and implement
|
|
Kubernetes features in scalable and performance way.
|
|
Educating contributors and ensuring best practises are widely used.
|
|
|
|
* [Regressions case study](./governance/scalability-regressions-case-studies.md)
|
|
* [Scalability Regressions and Bugs](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_mqv_T7i5k7_HgcQihEuFdq7ZCIf3AAGyAo9axzdAGI/edit)
|
|
|
|
## Kubernetes scalability bottlenecks detection
|
|
|
|
Detecting scalability bottlenecks and limitations, documenting them and
|
|
driving architectural changes to eliminate those (if such are required) in
|
|
collaboration with other SIGs or directly delegating non cross-cutting
|
|
improvements to individual SIGs.
|
|
|
|
* [Scalability issues with Services](./blogs/k8s-services-scalability-issues.md)
|
|
|
|
## Kubernetes scalability test frameworks
|
|
|
|
Designing and creating frameworks to make scalability and performance testing
|
|
of Kubernetes easy and available for all contributors.
|
|
Different frameworks may help in different aspects of scalability testing,
|
|
enabling making conscious tradeoffs, e.g. cost vs accuracy or real life vs
|
|
more generalized benchmarking scenarios.
|
|
|
|
* [Cluster Loader v2](https://github.com/kubernetes/perf-tests/tree/master/clusterloader2)
|
|
* [Kubemark](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/cmd/kubemark)
|
|
|
|
## Kubernetes scalability and performance tests and validation
|
|
|
|
Ensuring that all tests necessary to validate Kubernetes scalability and
|
|
performance exists (ideally by providing easy-to-use frameworks and working
|
|
with SIGs to provide them), having environment and resources to run them.
|
|
|
|
Ensuring that tests are being executed according to calendar and ensuring that
|
|
each official Kubernetes release satisfies all scalability and performance
|
|
requirements as stated in "Kubernetes scalability" definition.
|
|
This also includes designing processes to reduce maintenance work and number
|
|
of scalability and performance regressions:
|
|
|
|
* [Processes](https://github.com/kubernetes/community/tree/master/sig-scalability/processes)
|
|
|
|
We are in progress to migrating tests to new framework:
|
|
|
|
* [Still official tests](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/tree/master/test/e2e/scalability)
|
|
* [Soon to be official tests](https://github.com/kubernetes/perf-tests/tree/master/clusterloader2/testing)
