The web-based Kubernetes console is an interface that provides information about the state of the Kubernetes cluster. The dashboard is also used for deploying containerized applications as well as for general cluster resource management. Traditionally, kubectl is primarily used in the terminal for nearly all cluster related tasks. Still, it is useful to have a visual representation of our cluster in a user-friendly interface. To install the dashboard, kubectl needs to be installed and running on the server.
First, we will deploy the k8s dashboard using the kubectl command in the terminal.
root@host:~## kubectl apply -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubernetes/dashboard/v2.0.0/aio/deploy/recommended.yaml

Next, we will download a default configuration to our server.

root@host:~#
We will replace the default configuration file with the one we have just downloaded, edit it, and then apply the specific changes unique to our settings.
root@host:~## mv recommended.yaml kubernetes-dashboard-deployment.yml
root@host:~#
Now, we should edit the configuration file and enter the following settings.
root@host:~## vim kubernetes-dashboard-deployment.yml
kind: Service
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
labels:
k8s-app: kubernetes-dashboard
name: kubernetes-dashboard
namespace: kubernetes-dashboard
spec:
ports:
- port: 443
targetPort: 8443
selector:
k8s-app: kubernetes-dashboard
type: NodePort
Note:
The NodePort setting provides a Service on each host IP address on a static port. The default is ClusterIP, a service in which NodePort Service routes are automatically created.
Lastly, save and exit the file using the :wq command in vim.
To apply our changes, we will use the kubectl apply command to implement the previous modifications we made to our configuration. This effectively locks in our updates, which are then applied to our existing system.
root@host:~## kubectl apply -f kubernetes-dashboard-deployment.yml
service/kubernetes-dashboard unchanged
serviceaccount/kubernetes-dashboard unchanged
secret/kubernetes-dashboard-certs unchanged
secret/kubernetes-dashboard-csrf unchanged

clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/kubernetes-dashboard unchanged
deployment.apps/kubernetes-dashboard unchanged
service/dashboard-metrics-scraper unchanged
deployment.apps/dashboard-metrics-scraper unchanged
root@host:~#
Now we will check the Dashboard’s creation and deployment status using this command.
root@host:~## kubectl get deployments -n kubernetes-dashboard
NAME READY UP-TO-DATE AVAILABLE AGE
dashboard-metrics-scraper 1/1 1 1 10m
kubernetes-dashboard 1/1 1 1 10m
root@host:~#
Next, we will create two modules; one for the dashboard and one for the metrics. The dash n (-n) flag represents a namespace.
root@host:~## kubectl get pods -n kubernetes-dashboard
NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE
dashboard-metrics-scraper-5997fdc798-7jr2t 1/1 Running 0 11m
kubernetes-dashboard-665f4c5ff-qb7sg 1/1 Running 0 11m
root@host:~#
Now we can check the NodePort service that we modified earlier. Notice the kubectl get command now defines ‘services,’ which includes the nodeport IP’s.
root@host:~## kubectl get services -n kubernetes-dashboard
NAME TYPE CLUSTER-IP EXTERNAL-IP PORT(S) AGE
dashboard-metrics-scraper ClusterIP 10.96.25.69 <none> 8000/TCP 12m
kubernetes-dashboard NodePort 10.98.129.73 <none> 443:30741/TCP 12m
root@host:~#
To use the Kubernetes Dashboard, we need to create an administrator user. The admin user can modify objects in all namespaces and manage any components of the cluster.
First, we will create a service account manifest file in which we will define the administrative user for kube-admin and the associated namespace they have access to.
root@host:~## vim admin-sa.yml
Next, we add the following information to the Yaml file and apply it using the kubectl apply command.
apiVersion: v1
kind: ServiceAccount
metadata:
name: kube-admin
namespace: kube-system
This command applies the specific settings.
root@host:~## kubectl apply -f admin-sa.yml
serviceaccount/kube-admin created
root@host:~#
Next, we will bind the cluster-admin role to the created user.
root@host:~## vim admin-rbac.yml
Once the file is open in vim, enter the following information.
apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRoleBinding
metadata:
name: kube-admin
roleRef:
apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
kind: ClusterRole
name: cluster-admin
subjects:
- kind: ServiceAccount
name: kube-admin
namespace: kube-system
Save the file using the :wq command in vim and apply the changes to the file.
root@host:~## kubectl apply -f admin-rbac.yml
clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io/kube-admin created
root@host:~#
In this step, we store the specific name of the service account.
root@host:~## SA_NAME="kube-admin"
Now we will generate a token for the account. This is necessary for security and further employment of the user in other systems, namespaces, or clusters.
root@host:~## kubectl -n kube-system describe secret $(kubectl -n kube-system get secret | grep ${SA_NAME} | awk '{print $1}')

Last year, we provided a list of Kubernetes tools that proved so popular we have decided to curate another list of some useful additions for working with the platform—among which are many tools that we personally use here at Caylent. Check out the original tools list here in case you missed it.
According to a recent survey done by Stackrox, the dominance Kubernetes enjoys in the market continues to be reinforced, with 86% of respondents using it for container orchestration.
(State of Kubernetes and Container Security, 2020)
And as you can see below, more and more companies are jumping into containerization for their apps. If you’re among them, here are some tools to aid you going forward as Kubernetes continues its rapid growth.

Background Fetch is a very simple plugin which attempts to awaken an app in the background about every 15 minutes, providing a short period of background running-time. This plugin will execute your provided callbackFn
whenever a background-fetch event occurs.
There is no way to increase the rate which a fetch-event occurs and this plugin sets the rate to the most frequent possible — you will never receive an event faster than 15 minutes. The operating-system will automatically throttle the rate the background-fetch events occur based upon usage patterns. Eg: if user hasn't turned on their phone for a long period of time, fetch events will occur less frequently or if an iOS user disables background refresh they may not happen at all.
:new: Background Fetch now provides a scheduleTask
method for scheduling arbitrary "one-shot" or periodic tasks.
scheduleTask
seems only to fire when the device is plugged into power.stopOnTerminate: false
for iOS.@config enableHeadless

In addition to the default background-fetch task defined by BackgroundFetch.configure
, you may also execute your own arbitrary "oneshot" or periodic tasks (iOS requires additional Setup Instructions). However, all events will be fired into the Callback provided to BackgroundFetch#configure
:
scheduleTask
on iOS seems only to run when the device is plugged into power.scheduleTask
on iOS are designed for low-priority tasks, such as purging cache files — they tend to be unreliable for mission-critical tasks. scheduleTask
will never run as frequently as you want.fetch
event is much more reliable and fires far more often.scheduleTask
on iOS stop when the user terminates the app. There is no such thing as stopOnTerminate: false
for iOS.// Step 1: Configure BackgroundFetch as usual.
let status = await BackgroundFetch.configure({
minimumFetchInterval: 15
}, async (taskId) => { // <-- Event callback
// This is the fetch-event callback.
console.log("[BackgroundFetch] taskId: ", taskId);
// Use a switch statement to route task-handling.
switch (taskId) {
case 'com.foo.customtask':
print("Received custom task");
break;
default:
print("Default fetch task");
}
// Finish, providing received taskId.
BackgroundFetch.finish(taskId);
}, async (taskId) => { // <-- Task timeout callback
// This task has exceeded its allowed running-time.
// You must stop what you're doing and immediately .finish(taskId)
BackgroundFetch.finish(taskId);
});
// Step 2: Schedule a custom "oneshot" task "com.foo.customtask" to execute 5000ms from now.
BackgroundFetch.scheduleTask({
taskId: "com.foo.customtask",
forceAlarmManager: true,
delay: 5000 // <-- milliseconds
});
API Documentation
@param {Integer} minimumFetchInterval [15]
The minimum interval in minutes to execute background fetch events. Defaults to 15
minutes. Note: Background-fetch events will never occur at a frequency higher than every 15 minutes. Apple uses a secret algorithm to adjust the frequency of fetch events, presumably based upon usage patterns of the app. Fetch events can occur less often than your configured minimumFetchInterval
.
@param {Integer} delay (milliseconds)
ℹ️ Valid only for BackgroundFetch.scheduleTask
. The minimum number of milliseconds in future that task should execute.
@param {Boolean} periodic [false]
ℹ️ Valid only for BackgroundFetch.scheduleTask
. Defaults to false
. Set true to execute the task repeatedly. When false
, the task will execute just once.
@config {Boolean} stopOnTerminate [true]
Set false
to continue background-fetch events after user terminates the app. Default to true
.
@config {Boolean} startOnBoot [false]
Set true
to initiate background-fetch events when the device is rebooted. Defaults to false
.
❗ NOTE: startOnBoot
requires stopOnTerminate: false
.
@config {Boolean} forceAlarmManager [false]
By default, the plugin will use Android's JobScheduler
when possible. The JobScheduler
API prioritizes for battery-life, throttling task-execution based upon device usage and battery level.
Configuring forceAlarmManager: true
will bypass JobScheduler
to use Android's older AlarmManager
API, resulting in more accurate task-execution at the cost of higher battery usage.
let status = await BackgroundFetch.configure({
minimumFetchInterval: 15,
forceAlarmManager: true
}, async (taskId) => { // <-- Event callback
console.log("[BackgroundFetch] taskId: ", taskId);
BackgroundFetch.finish(taskId);
}, async (taskId) => { // <-- Task timeout callback
// This task has exceeded its allowed running-time.
// You must stop what you're doing and immediately .finish(taskId)
BackgroundFetch.finish(taskId);
});
.
.
.
// And with with #scheduleTask
BackgroundFetch.scheduleTask({
taskId: 'com.foo.customtask',
delay: 5000, // milliseconds
forceAlarmManager: true,
periodic: false
});
@config {Boolean} enableHeadless [false]
Set true
to enable React Native's Headless JS mechanism, for handling fetch events after app termination.
index.js
(MUST BE IN index.js
):import BackgroundFetch from "react-native-background-fetch";
let MyHeadlessTask = async (event) => {
// Get task id from event {}:
let taskId = event.taskId;
let isTimeout = event.timeout; // <-- true when your background-time has expired.
if (isTimeout) {
// This task has exceeded its allowed running-time.
// You must stop what you're doing immediately finish(taskId)
console.log('[BackgroundFetch] Headless TIMEOUT:', taskId);
BackgroundFetch.finish(taskId);
return;
}
console.log('[BackgroundFetch HeadlessTask] start: ', taskId);
// Perform an example HTTP request.
// Important: await asychronous tasks when using HeadlessJS.
let response = await fetch('https://reactnative.dev/movies.json');
let responseJson = await response.json();
console.log('[BackgroundFetch HeadlessTask] response: ', responseJson);
// Required: Signal to native code that your task is complete.
// If you don't do this, your app could be terminated and/or assigned
// battery-blame for consuming too much time in background.
BackgroundFetch.finish(taskId);
}
// Register your BackgroundFetch HeadlessTask
BackgroundFetch.registerHeadlessTask(MyHeadlessTask);
@config {integer} requiredNetworkType [BackgroundFetch.NETWORK_TYPE_NONE]
Set basic description of the kind of network your job requires.
If your job doesn't need a network connection, you don't need to use this option as the default value is BackgroundFetch.NETWORK_TYPE_NONE
.
NetworkType | Description |
---|---|
BackgroundFetch.NETWORK_TYPE_NONE | This job doesn't care about network constraints, either any or none. |
BackgroundFetch.NETWORK_TYPE_ANY | This job requires network connectivity. |
BackgroundFetch.NETWORK_TYPE_CELLULAR | This job requires network connectivity that is a cellular network. |
BackgroundFetch.NETWORK_TYPE_UNMETERED | This job requires network connectivity that is unmetered. Most WiFi networks are unmetered, as in "you can upload as much as you like". |
BackgroundFetch.NETWORK_TYPE_NOT_ROAMING | This job requires network connectivity that is not roaming (being outside the country of origin) |
@config {Boolean} requiresBatteryNotLow [false]
Specify that to run this job, the device's battery level must not be low.
This defaults to false. If true, the job will only run when the battery level is not low, which is generally the point where the user is given a "low battery" warning.
@config {Boolean} requiresStorageNotLow [false]
Specify that to run this job, the device's available storage must not be low.
This defaults to false. If true, the job will only run when the device is not in a low storage state, which is generally the point where the user is given a "low storage" warning.
@config {Boolean} requiresCharging [false]
Specify that to run this job, the device must be charging (or be a non-battery-powered device connected to permanent power, such as Android TV devices). This defaults to false.
@config {Boolean} requiresDeviceIdle [false]
When set true, ensure that this job will not run if the device is in active use.
The default state is false: that is, the for the job to be runnable even when someone is interacting with the device.
This state is a loose definition provided by the system. In general, it means that the device is not currently being used interactively, and has not been in use for some time. As such, it is a good time to perform resource heavy jobs. Bear in mind that battery usage will still be attributed to your application, and shown to the user in battery stats.
Method Name | Arguments | Returns | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
configure | {FetchConfig} , callbackFn , timeoutFn | Promise<BackgroundFetchStatus> | Configures the plugin's callbackFn and timeoutFn . This callback will fire each time a background-fetch event occurs in addition to events from #scheduleTask . The timeoutFn will be called when the OS reports your task is nearing the end of its allowed background-time. |
scheduleTask | {TaskConfig} | Promise<boolean> | Executes a custom task. The task will be executed in the same Callback function provided to #configure . |
status | callbackFn | Promise<BackgroundFetchStatus> | Your callback will be executed with the current status (Integer) 0: Restricted , 1: Denied , 2: Available . These constants are defined as BackgroundFetch.STATUS_RESTRICTED , BackgroundFetch.STATUS_DENIED , BackgroundFetch.STATUS_AVAILABLE (NOTE: Android will always return STATUS_AVAILABLE ) |
finish | String taskId | Void | You MUST call this method in your callbackFn provided to #configure in order to signal to the OS that your task is complete. iOS provides only 30s of background-time for a fetch-event -- if you exceed this 30s, iOS will kill your app. |
start | none | Promise<BackgroundFetchStatus> | Start the background-fetch API. Your callbackFn provided to #configure will be executed each time a background-fetch event occurs. NOTE the #configure method automatically calls #start . You do not have to call this method after you #configure the plugin |
stop | [taskId:String] | Promise<boolean> | Stop the background-fetch API and all #scheduleTask from firing events. Your callbackFn provided to #configure will no longer be executed. If you provide an optional taskId , only that #scheduleTask will be stopped. |

Kubernetes is a highly popular container orchestration platform. Multi cloud is a strategy that leverages cloud resources from multiple vendors. Multi cloud strategies have become popular because they help prevent vendor lock-in and enable you to leverage a wide variety of cloud resources. However, multi cloud ecosystems are notoriously difficult to configure and maintain.
This article explains how you can leverage Kubernetes to reduce multi cloud complexities and improve stability, scalability, and velocity.
Maintaining standardized application deployments becomes more challenging as your number of applications and the technologies they are based on increase. As environments, operating systems, and dependencies differ, management and operations require more effort and extensive documentation.
In the past, teams tried to get around these difficulties by creating isolated projects in the data center. Each project, including its configurations and requirements were managed independently. This required accurately predicting performance and the number of users before deployment and taking down applications to update operating systems or applications. There were many chances for error.
Kubernetes can provide an alternative to the old method, enabling teams to deploy applications independent of the environment in containers. This eliminates the need to create resource partitions and enables teams to operate infrastructure as a unified whole.
In particular, Kubernetes makes it easier to deploy a multi cloud strategy since it enables you to abstract away service differences. With Kubernetes deployments you can work from a consistent platform and optimize services and applications according to your business needs.
The Compelling Attributes of Multi Cloud Kubernetes
Multi cloud Kubernetes can provide multiple benefits beyond a single cloud deployment. Below are some of the most notable advantages.
Stability
In addition to the built-in scalability, fault tolerance, and auto-healing features of Kubernetes, multi cloud deployments can provide service redundancy. For example, you can mirror applications or split microservices across vendors. This reduces the risk of a vendor-related outage and enables you to create failovers.

Recently, Microsoft announced the general availability of Bridge to Kubernetes, formerly known as Local Process with Kubernetes. It is an iterative development tool offered in Visual Studio and VS Code, which allows developers to write, test as well as debug microservice code on their development workstations while consuming dependencies and inheriting the existing configuration from a Kubernetes environment.
Nick Greenfield, Program Manager, Bridge to Kubernetes stated in an official blog post, “Bridge to Kubernetes is expanding support to any Kubernetes. Whether you’re connecting to your development cluster running in the cloud, or to your local Kubernetes cluster, Bridge to Kubernetes is available for your end-to-end debugging scenarios.”
Bridge to Kubernetes provides a number of compelling features. Some of them are mentioned below-

Over the last few years, Kubernetes have become the de-facto standard for container orchestration and has also won the race against Docker for being the most loved platforms among developers. Released in 2014, Kubernetes has come a long way with currently being used across the entire cloudscape platforms. In fact, recent reports state that out of 109 tools to manage containers, 89% of them are leveraging Kubernetes versions.
Although inspired by Borg, Kubernetes, is an open-source project by Google, and has been donated to a vendor-neutral firm — The Cloud Native Computing Foundation. This could be attributed to Google’s vision of creating a platform that can be used by every firm of the world, including the large tech companies and can host multiple cloud platforms and data centres. The entire reason for handing over the control to CNCF is to develop the platform in the best interest of its users without vendor lock-in.
