Cluster Summary and Recommendation

Cluster Summary and Recommendation

Ksctl provides you a comprehensive summary of your cluster’s configuration and provides both:

• debugging information in entire cluster scope
• recommendation in terms of security

Here is the demo on how it looks

Why Cluster Summary?

It will give users access to the important details of their cluster with just a single command $ ksctl cluster summary It will help users with the following:

• Debugging: It will help users to debug their cluster in a single command. From:
  • Errors in Pods failing,
  • metrics from server to know directly what is wrong with the cluster.
  • Cluster Events
  • Latency: It gives you report of what is the latency between you and the cluster
• Recommendation: It gives remediation of problems it finds in the cluster. We are currently looking for these problems as of now:
  • PodSecurityPolicy: It will check if the PodSecurityPolicy is enabled or not. If not, it will give a recommendation to enable it.
  • NamespaceQuota: It will check if the NamespaceQuota is enabled or not. If not, it will give a recommendation to enable it.
  • PodResourceLimits & Requests: It will check if the PodResourceLimits & Requests are enabled or not. If not, it will give a recommendation to enable it.
  • NodePort: It will check if the NodePort is enabled or not. If not, it will give a recommendation to remove them.

How to use it?

This subcommand got introduced in Ksctl v2.7. You can use it by running the following command for any existing cluster:

$ ksctl cluster summary
