Hi I want to run Cassandra container in GCP and want to orchestrate the containers using Kubernetes.
I have a Cassandra image in my Docker Registry. Following the steps from the following tutorial, I have created a cluster and have Cassandra running on it. https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/docs/tutorials/hello-app#step_4_create_a_cluster These are the steps I executed * get cassandra image - docker pull manuchadha25/codingjedi:3.11.4 * check that the images exists locally- docker images. Also check that the image runs - docker run manuchadha25/cassandra:3.11.4 * run on GCP console - export PROJECT_ID=project-id of google project * run on GCP console - gcloud auth configure-docker - maybe not required as I want to skip putting the image in container registry. * gcloud config set project $PROJECT_ID * gcloud config set compute/zone compute-zone --num-nodes 2 * gcloud container clusters create codingjedi-cassandra-cluster --num-nodes=2 * check cluster is up - gcloud compute instances list * kubectl create deployment codingjedi-cassandra-app --image=docker.io/manuchadha25/cassandra:3.11.4 * kubectl scale deployment codingjedi-cassandra-app --replicas=3 * kubectl autoscale deployment codingjedi-cassandra-app --cpu-percent=80 --min=3 --max=5 * check all is fine- kubectl get pods * kubectl expose deployment codingjedi-cassandra-app --name=codingjedi-cassandra-app-service --type=LoadBalancer --port 9042 --target-port 9042 * check service is running - kubectl get service * copy external ip address and from laptop run cqlsh external-ip 9042. This should start cqlsh. I am able to connect with the cluster from my laptop using the external IP. – cqlsh external-ip 9042 My concern is that I have not provided any configuration anywhere which would make the different Cassandra nodes work together. So while I have created a Kubernetes cluster, I have not created a Cassandra cluster. Am I correct? I suppose I need to do more to make the nodes work as Cassandra cluster. How do I do that? I mean specify SEED_ADDRESS, LISTENING address, set an external data volume so that the data persists etc.? Regards Manu Sent from Mail<https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for Windows 10
