Introduction

MOSK Bootstrap v2 provides best user experience to set up MOSK management. Using Bootstrap v2, you can provision and operate management clusters using required objects through the MOSK management API.

Basic concepts and components of Bootstrap v2 include:

  • Bootstrap cluster

    Bootstrap cluster is any kind-based Kubernetes cluster that contains a minimal set of bootstrap components allowing the user to prepare the configuration for management cluster deployment and start the deployment. The list of these components includes:

    • Bootstrap Controller

      Controller that is responsible for:

      1. Configuration of a bootstrap cluster with provider charts through the bootstrap Helm bundle.

      2. Configuration and deployment of a management cluster and its related objects.

    • Helm Controller

      Operator that manages Helm chart releases. It installs the bootstrap and provider charts configured in the bootstrap Helm bundle.

    • Public API charts

      Helm charts that contain custom resource definitions for MOSK management resources.

    • Admission Controller

      Controller that performs mutations and validations for the MOSK management resources including cluster and machine configuration.

    Currently one bootstrap cluster can be used for deployment of only one management cluster. For example, to add a new management cluster with different settings, a new bootstrap cluster must be created from scratch.

  • Bootstrap region

    BootstrapRegion is the first object to create in the bootstrap cluster for the Bootstrap Controller to identify and install provider components onto the bootstrap cluster. After, the user can prepare and deploy a management cluster with related resources.

    The bootstrap region is a starting point for the cluster deployment. The user needs to approve the BootstrapRegion object. Otherwise, the Bootstrap Controller will not be triggered for the cluster deployment.

  • Bootstrap Helm bundle

    Helm bundle that contains charts configuration for the bootstrap cluster. This object is managed by the Bootstrap Controller that updates the provider bundle in the BootstrapRegion object. The Bootstrap Controller always configures provider charts listed in the regional section of the MOSK management release for the provider. Depending on the cluster configuration, the Bootstrap Controller may update or reconfigure this bundle even after the cluster deployment starts. For example, the Bootstrap Controller enables the provider in the bootstrap cluster only after the bootstrap region is approved for the deployment.
