Creating a Cluster

This lesson contains instructions regarding creating a Kubernetes cluster.

We need a cluster to run our experiments and to deploy our application. Whether you have one or not depends on whether you destroyed the cluster at the end of the previous section. If you didn’t destroy it, just skip this part. If you did destroy the cluster, use the Gists that follow, or just roll out your own cluster. The choice is yours. It does not matter much how you create a Kubernetes cluster. As long as you have one, you should be fine.

Gists for different Kubernetes flavors#

Gists with the commands to create and destroy a Kubernetes cluster are as follows.


We’re almost ready to continue destroying things. The only missing requirement is to deploy the demo application. Let’s do that in the next lesson.
