Prerequisites

{{< boilerplate work-in-progress >}}

For this tutorial you need a Kubernetes cluster with a namespace for the tutorial's modules and a local computer to run the commands. If you have your own cluster, ensure your cluster satisfies the prerequisites.

If you are in a workshop and the instructors provide a cluster, let them handle the cluster prerequisites, while you skip ahead to set up your local computer.

Kubernetes cluster

Ensure the following conditions are met:

• You have administrator privileges to the virtual machine running a Kubernetes cluster named tutorial-cluster and administrator privileges to the virtual machine it runs on.
• You can create a namespace in the cluster for each participant.

Local computer

Ensure the following conditions are met:

• You have write access to the local computer's /etc/hosts file.
• You have the ability and permission to download, install and run command line tools on the local computer.
• You have Internet connectivity for the duration of the tutorial.
