It allows us to create a disposable environment by making use of configuration files.Īnsible is an infrastructure automation engine that automates software configuration management. It can be used with multiple providers such as Oracle VirtualBox, VMware, Docker, and so on. Vagrant is a tool that will allow us to create a virtual environment easily and it eliminates pitfalls that cause the works-on-my-machine phenomenon. These benefits enable teams to resolve issues faster which make the more agile. For instance, Ops can reproduce an issue in a multi node cluster environment, Testers can deploy multiple versions of an application for executing test cases and verifying changes. Even though Minikube provides an excellent platform for getting started, it doesn't provide the opportunity to work with multi node clusters which can help solve problems or bugs that are related to application design and architecture. Multi node Kubernetes clusters offer a production-like environment which has various advantages. Why do we require multi node cluster setup? This setup provides a production-like cluster that can be setup on your local machine. This blog post describes the steps required to setup a multi node Kubernetes cluster for development purposes.
