- Stable tiny Linux distribution with ignition bootstrap and transaction-based update engine.
- OpenShift:
- Wide enterprise adoption
- Security
- Multi-tenancy features (self-service)
- CoreOS Tectonic:
- OpenShift 4 is built on top of Kubernetes 1.13+
- Roadmap
- Release Notes
Three New Functionalities
- Self-Managing Platform
- Application Lifecycle Management (OLM):
- OLM Operator:
- Responsible for deploying applications defined by ClusterServiceVersion (CSV) manifest.
- Not concerned with the creation of the required resources; users can choose to manually create these resources using the CLI, or users can choose to create these resources using the Catalog Operator.
- Catalog Operator:
- Responsible for resolving and installing CSVs and the required resources they specify. It is also responsible for watching CatalogSources for updates to packages in channels and upgrading them (optionally automatically) to the latest available versions.
- A user that wishes to track a package in a channel creates a Subscription resource configuring the desired package, channel, and the CatalogSource from which to pull updates. When updates are found, an appropriate InstallPlan is written into the namespace on behalf of the user.
- OLM Operator:
- Automated Infrastructure Management (Over-The-Air Updates)
New Technical Components
- New Installer:
- Storage: Cloud integrated storage capability used by default via OCS Operator (Red Hat)
- There are a number of persistent storage options available to you through the OperatorHub / Storage vendors that don’t involve Red Hat, NFS or Gluster.
- Kubernetes-native persistent storage technologies available (non-RedHat solutions):
- Operators End-To-End!: responsible for reconciling the system to the desired state
- Cluster configuration kept as API objects that ease its maintenance (“everything-as-code” approach):
- Every component is configured with Custom Resources (CR) that are processed by operators.
- No more painful upgrades and synchronization among multiple nodes and no more configuration drift.
- List of operators that configure cluster components (API objects):
- API server
- Nodes via Machine API
- Ingress
- Internal DNS
- Logging (EFK) and Monitoring (Prometheus)
- Sample applications
- Networking
- Internal Registry
- Oauth (and authentication in general)
- etc
- Cluster configuration kept as API objects that ease its maintenance (“everything-as-code” approach):
- At the Node Level:
- RHEL CoreOS is the result of merging CoreOS Container Linux and RedHat Atomic host functionality and is currently the only supported OS to host OpenShift 4.
- Node provisioning with ignition, which came with CoreOS Container Linux
- Atomic host updates with rpm-ostree
- CRI-O as a container runtime
- SELinux enabled by default
- Machine API: Provisioning of nodes. Abstraction mechanism added (API objects to declaratively manage the cluster):
- Based on Kubernetes Cluster API project
- Provides a new set of machine resources:
- Machine
- Machine Deployment
- MachineSet:
- distributes easily your nodes among different Availability Zones
- manages multiple node pools (e.g. pool for testing, pool for machine learning with GPU attached, etc)
- Everything “just another pod”
Installation & Cluster Autoscaler
- New installer openshift-install tool, replacement for the old Ansible scripts.
- 40 min (AWS). Terraform.
- 2 installation patterns:
- Installer Provisioned Infrastructure (IPI)
- User Provisioned Infrastructure (UPI)
- The whole process can be done in one command and requires minimal infrastructure knowledge (IPI):
openshift-install create cluster
IPI & UPI
- 2 installation patterns:
- Installer Provisioned Infrastructure (IPI): On supported platforms, the installer is capable of provisioning the underlying infrastructure for the cluster. The installer programmatically creates all portions of the networking, machines, and operating systems required to support the cluster. Think of it as best-practice reference architecture implemented in code. It is recommended that most users make use of this functionality to avoid having to provision their own infrastructure. The installer will create and destroy the infrastructure components it needs to be successful over the life of the cluster.
- User Provisioned Infrastructure (UPI): For other platforms or in scenarios where installer provisioned infrastructure would be incompatible, the installer can stop short of creating the infrastructure, and allow the platform administrator to provision their own using the cluster assets generated by the install tool. Once the infrastructure has been created, OpenShift 4 is installed, maintaining its ability to support automated operations and over-the-air platform updates.
Cluster Autoscaler Operator
- Adjusts the size of an OpenShift Container Platform cluster to meet its current deployment needs. It uses declarative, Kubernetes-style arguments
- Increases the size of the cluster when there are pods that failed to schedule on any of the current nodes due to insufficient resources or when another node is necessary to meet deployment needs. The ClusterAutoscaler does not increase the cluster resources beyond the limits that you specify.
- A huge improvement over the manual, error-prone process used in the previous version of OpenShift and RHEL nodes.
Operators
Introduction
- Core of the platform
- The hierarchy of operators, with clusterversion at the top, is the single door for configuration changes and is responsible for reconciling the system to the desired state.
- For example, if you break a critical cluster resource directly, the system automatically recovers itself.
- Similarly to cluster maintenance, operator framework used for applications. As a user, you get SDK, OLM (Lifecycle Manager of all Operators and their associated services running across their clusters) and embedded operator hub.
- OLM Arquitecture
- Adding Operators to a Cluster (They can be added via CatalogSource)
- The supported method of using Helm charts with Openshift is via the Helm Operator
- twitter.com/operatorhubio
- View the list of Operators available to the cluster from the OperatorHub:
$ oc get packagemanifests -n openshift-marketplace
NAME AGE
amq-streams 14h
packageserver 15h
couchbase-enterprise 14h
mongodb-enterprise 14h
etcd 14h myoperator 14h
...
Catalog
- Developer Catalog
- Installed Operators
- OperatorHub (OLM)
- Operator Management:
- Operator Catalogs are groups of Operators you can make available on the cluster. They can be added via CatalogSource (i.e. “catalogsource.yaml”). Subscribe and grant a namespace access to use the installed Operators.
- Operator Subscriptions keep your services up to date by tracking a channel in a package. The approval strategy determines either manual or automatic updates.

Deploy and bind enterprise-grade microservices with Kubernetes Operators
OpenShift Container Storage Operator (OCS)
OCS 3 (OpenShift 3)
- OpenShift Container Storage based on GlusterFS technology.
- Not OpenShift 4 compliant: Migration tooling will be available to facilitate the move to OCS 4.x (OpenShift Gluster APP Mitration Tool).
OCS 4 (OpenShift 4)
- OCS Operator based on Rook.io with Operator LifeCycle Manager (OLM).
- Tech Stack:
- Rook (don't confuse this with non-redhat "Rook Ceph" -> RH ref).
- Replaces Heketi (OpenShift 3)
- Uses Red Hat Ceph Storage and Noobaa.
- Red Hat Ceph Storage
- Noobaa:
- Red Hat Multi Cloud Gateway (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc)
- Asynchronous replication of data between my local ceph and my cloud provider
- Deduplication
- Compression
- Encryption
- Rook (don't confuse this with non-redhat "Rook Ceph" -> RH ref).
- Backups available in OpenShift 4.2+ (Snapshots + Restore of Volumes)
- OCS Dashboard in OCS Operator
Cluster Network Operator (CNO) & Routers
- Cluster Network Operator (CNO): The cluster network is now configured and managed by an Operator. The Operator upgrades and monitors the cluster network.
- Router plug-ins in OCP3:
- A « route » is the external entrypoint to a Kubernetes Service. This is one of the biggest differences between Kubernetes and OpenShift Enterprise (= OCP) and origin.
- OpenShift router has the endpoints as targets and therefore the pod of the application.
- Shared/Stikcy sessions are enabled by default
- HAProxy template router (default router): HTTP(s) & TLS-enabled traffic via SIN.
- F5 BIG-IP Router plug-in integrates with an existing F5 BIG-IP system in your environment
- Since the 9th May 2018, NGINX is also available as « router ».
- Routers in OCP4:
- Ingress Controller is the most common way to allow external access to an OpenShift Container Platform cluster
- Configuring Ingress Operator in OCP4
- Limited to HTTP, HTTPS using SNI, and TLS using SNI (sufficient for web applications and services)
- Has two replicas by default, which means it should be running on two worker nodes.
- Can be scaled up to have more replicas on more nodes.
- The Ingress Operator implements the ingresscontroller API and is the component responsible for enabling external access to OpenShift Container Platform cluster services.
- The operator makes this possible by deploying and managing one or more HAProxy-based Ingress Controllers to handle routing.
- Network Security Zones in Openshift (DMZ)
oc describe clusteroperators/ingress
oc logs --namespace=openshift-ingress-operator deployments/ingress-operator
ServiceMesh Operator
- ServiceMesh: Istio + kiali + Jaeger
- ServiceMesh Community Edition: github.com/maistra/istio
- Red Hat community installer compliant with OCP 4.1: maistra.io/docs/getting_started/install
- Outcome: publicly known errors in 2 or 3 components.
- Certified ServiceMesh Operator
- ServiceMesh GA in September 2019 (available in OperatorHub):
- Certified & Packaged by Red Hat
- “One-click” deployment
- Preparing to install Red Hat OpenShift Service Mesh. To install the Red Hat OpenShift Service Mesh Operator, you must first install these Operators:
- Elasticsearch
- Jaeger
- Kiali
- Do not install Community versions of the Operators. Community Operators are not supported.
Serverless Operator (Knative)
- Operator install on OperatorHub.io
- Knative Eventing (Camel-K, Kafka, Cron, etc)

- Silences temporarily mute alerts based on a set of conditions that you define. Notifications are not sent for alerts that meet the given conditions.
- Project “openshift-monitoring”
- prometheus.io/docs/alerting/alertmanager/
Cluster Logging (EFK)
- EFK: Elasticsearch + Fluentd + Kibana
- Cluster Logging EFK not deployed by default
- As an OpenShift Container Platform cluster administrator, you can deploy cluster logging to aggregate logs for a range of OpenShift Container Platform services.
- The OpenShift Container Platform cluster logging solution requires that you install both the Cluster Logging Operator and Elasticsearch Operator. There is no use case in OpenShift Container Platform for installing the operators individually. You must install the Elasticsearch Operator using the CLI following the directions below. You can install the Cluster Logging Operator using the web console or CLI.
Deployment procedure based on CLI + web console:
- docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.4/logging/cluster-logging-deploying.html
- Elasticsearch Operator must be installed in Project “openshift-operators-redhat”
- Cluster Logging Operator must be deployed in Project “openshift-logging”
- CatalogSourceConfig added to enable Elasticsearch Operator on the cluster
- etc.
| OCP Release | Elasticsearch | Fluentd | Kibana | EFK deployed by default |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OpenShift 3.11 | 5.6.13.6 | 0.12.43 | 5.6.13 | No |
| OpenShift 4.1 | 5.6.16 | ? | 5.6.16 | No |
Build Images. Next-Generation Container Image Building Tools
- Redesign of how images are built on the platform.
- Instead of relying on a daemon on the host to manage containers, image creation, and image pushing, we are leveraging Buildah running inside our build pods.
- This aligns with the general OpenShift 4 theme of making everything “just another pod”
- A simplified set of build workflows, not dependent on the node host having a specific container runtime available.
- Dockerfiles that built under OpenShift 3.x will continue to build under OpenShift 4.x and S2I builds will continue to function as well.
- The actual BuildConfig API is unchanged, so a BuildConfig from a v3.x cluster can be imported into a v4.x cluster and work without modification.
- Podman & Buildah for docker users
- Openshift ImageStreams
- Openshift 4 image builds
- Custom image builds with Buildah
- Rootless podman and NFS
Registry & Quay
- A Docker registry is a place to store and distribute Docker images.
- It serves as a target for your docker push and docker pull commands.
- Openshift ImageStreams
- The registry is now managed by an Operator instead of
oc admregistry. - Quay.io is a hosted Docker registry from CoreOS:
- Main features:
- “Powerful build triggers”
- “Advanced team permissions”
- “Secure storage”
- One of the more enterprise-friendly options out there, offering fine-grained permission controls.
- They support any git server and let you build advanced workflows by doing things like mapping git branches to Docker tags so that when you commit code it automatically builds a corresponding image.
- Quay offers unlimited free public repositories. Otherwise, you pay by the number of private repositories. There’s no extra charge for storage or bandwidth.
- Main features:
- Quay 3.0 released in May 2019: support for multiple architectures, Windows containers, and a Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)-based image to this container image registry.
- Quay 3.1 released in September 2019: The newest Quay feature is repository mirroring, which complements our existing geographic replication features. Repository mirroring reflects content between distinct, different registries. With this, you can synchronize whitelisted repositories or a source registry subset into Quay. This makes it much easier to distribute images and related data through Quay.
- Quay Community Edition operator
- Quay 3.1 Certified Operator is not available in Openshift and must be purchased
- Open Source ProjectQuay.io Container Registry:
Local Development Environment
- For version 3 we have Container Development Kit (or its open source equivalent for OKD - minishift) which launches a single node VM with Openshift and it does it in a few minutes. It’s perfect for testing also as a part of CI/CD pipeline.
- Openshift 4 on your laptop: There is a working solution for single node OpenShift cluster. It is provided by a new project called CodeReady Containers.
