K8s Deployment Doris

Environmental Preparation

• Installation k8s
• Build or download a Doris image
  • Building an image Build Docker Image
  • Download Image https://hub.docker.com/r/apache/doris/tags
• Create or download the yml file for Doris on k8s
  • https://github.com/apache/doris/blob/master/docker/runtime/k8s/doris_follower.yml
  • https://github.com/apache/doris/blob/master/docker/runtime/k8s/doris_be.yml
  • https://github.com/apache/doris/blob/master/docker/runtime/k8s/doris_cn.yml

Starting a cluster

Start FE (role type is Follower):kubectl create -f doris_follower.yml

Start BE:kubectl create -f doris_be.yml

Start the BE (role type is Compute Node):kubectl create -f doris_cn.yml

Expansion and contraction capacity

• FE
  • Currently, scaling is not supported. It is recommended to initialize 1 or 3 nodes as needed
• BE
  • Command:kubectl scale statefulset doris-be-cluster1 --replicas=4
• BE (role type is Compute Node)
  • Command:kubectl scale statefulset doris-cn-cluster1 --replicas=4

test and verify

Connect to the FE using mysql-client and perform operations such as' show backends' and 'show frontends' to view the status of each node

K8s simple operation command

• Executing the yml file for the first time kubectl create -f xxx.yml
• Execute after modifying the yml file kubectl apply -f xxx.yml
• Delete all resources defined by yml kubectl delete -f xxx.yml
• View the pod list kubectl get pods
• Entering the container kubectl exec -it xxx（podName） -- /bin/sh
• view log kubectl logs xxx（podName）
• View IP and port information kubectl get ep
• More knowledge of k8s

common problem

• How is data persistent?

  Users need to mount PVC on their own to persist metadata information, data information, or log information

• How to safely shrink the BE node?

  BE:User manual execution is required before current resizingALTER-SYSTEM-DECOMMISSION-BACKEND

  BE(The role type is Compute Node): Do not store data files and can directly shrink，About Computing Nodes

• FE startup error "failed to init statefulSetName"

  doris_ The environment variables statefulSetName and serviceName for follower. yml must appear in pairs, such as CN configured_ SERVICE, CN must be configured_ STATEFULSET
