I'm developping an application which is splitted in 15 micro services.
I've been using Minikube with skaffold for development.
Now, I want to migrate to multipass nodes.
Is it possible to use skaffold with multipass on Ubuntu 18.04 ?
You'll need to use a Kubernetes distribution. I haven't tested it, but the microk8s documentation describes installing microk8s on multipass.

Has anyone ben able to install Kubernetes using kOps on bare metal/ local virtual machine running Ubuntu.
From one of Kops maintainer
As kOps maintainer, I can at least say that there is no active project to support bare-metal anymore. And the code we once had going in that direction was obsolete and removed.

If you are looking for installing kubernetes clusters in local bare-metal machine, check out Kind. It is looking very promising.
I am trying to setup a kubernetes cluster but apparently the nfs-client-provisioner has issues with the newer versions of kubernetes. Therefore I need to install the latest version of 1.19.
I am creating the kubernetes via kubeadm and I am using crio as the runtime. I am also running the whole thing on ubuntu 20.04. I know that I need to install version 1.19.7 of kubeadm, kubelet and kubectl but whatabout the cri-o?
As per official documentation from Kubernetes the CRI-O version needs to match your Kubernetes version.
https://v1-19.docs.kubernetes.io/docs/setup/production-environment/container-runtimes/#cri-o
So CRI-O 1.19 version should be compatible with the Kubernetes version you want to install.
Is there an ubuntu version of Kubernetes in docker for Ubuntu, that works like docker for mac(https://blog.docker.com/2018/01/docker-mac-kubernetes/).
and docker for windows (https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/#kubernetes)
minikube consumes lots of resource, and I want to try out a lighter alternative, which I found docker for mac that supports kubernetes, but my machine is ubuntu 18.04.
As you may know there are a lot of projects that offer K8S solution, Minikube is the closest to an official mini distribution for local testing and development, but if you wanna try lightweight options you can check:
Kind runs Kubernetes clusters in Docker containers. It supports multi-node clusters as well as HA clusters. Because it runs K8s in Docker, kind can run on Windows, Mac, and Linux. Kind may not have developer-friendly features.
K3s is ma project by Rancher as a lightweight Kubernetes offering suitable for edge environments, IoT devices, CI pipelines, and even ARM devices, like Raspberry Pi's. It runs on any Linux distribution without any additional external dependencies or tools. K3s provides lightweight by replacing docker with containerd, and using sqlite3 as the default DB (instead of etcd). This solution consumes 512 MB of RAM and 200 MB of disk space.
K3d
It is based on a k3s which is a lightweight kubernetes distribution (similar to kind).
Microk8s runs upstream Kubernetes as native services on Linux systems supporting snap. A good option if you are running Ubuntu on your Laptop. There is a very good installation tutorial:
And there are plenty more. You can check what solution suits you best.
Check kind it is kubernetes in docker.
I am trying to install kubernetes on ubuntu 16.04.
I am able to install other kubernetes components but i dont know if kube-proxy is installed? Should i get separate binary package for it or does it come prepackaged with kubernetes apt-get installation?
In most cases installing kube-proxy onthe node it self is not required as a common pattern is running kube-proxy as a DaemonSet in your kube cluster.
In regular apt-get packages you would normally find kubectl, kubeadm and kubelet. If you use kubeadm to create the cluster it will automatically prepare kube-proxy as well (in the form of a container, as the rest of the elements of the kubernetes control panel). Therefore, you wouldn't need to install it separately.
If you use the official kubernetes tarball and try to manually install the cluster by yourself, you will need to configure kube-proxy just like the rest of the elements, but the binaries will be included in the tarball. This documentation shows the essential options to configure it: https://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/scratch/#kube-proxy. Another resource is Kubernetes the hard way: https://github.com/kelseyhightower/kubernetes-the-hard-way/blob/master/docs/09-bootstrapping-kubernetes-workers.md
Is it recommended to deploy Kubernetes 1.2 on a bare-metal Ubuntu/ RedHat production cluster? If so, what is the recommended SDN tool (flanneld or OvS), docker version and etcd version to use?
Here is the getting started guide for Ubuntu. It hasn't been updated since Kubernetes v1.1.8, but it should still be applicable for v1.2.4. That getting started guide uses flannel, but you can also use Calico (Guide). The list of Kubernetes getting started guides might be a good place to start.
docker version need to be 1.2+
you can found flannel/etcd version in the script of download-release.sh
