What to read next
Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Architecture The Tanzu Kubernetes Grid provides self-service life cycle management of Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters. You use the Tanzu Kubernetes Grid to create and manage Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters in a declarative manner that is familiar to Kubernetes operators and developers.
Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Cluster Networking A Tanzu Kubernetes Grid cluster provisioned by the Tanzu Kubernetes Grid supports two CNI options: Antrea (default) and Calico. Both are open-source software that provide networking for cluster pods, services, and ingress.
Storage for Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Clusters Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters, as some other components and workloads that run in Supervisor namespaces, require persistent storage.
High-Availability for Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Clusters You can provide high-availability to Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters when they are deployed on a three vSphere Zone Supervisor . A vSphere Zone maps to a vSphere cluster, which means that when you deploy a Supervisor on three vSphere Zones, it utilizes the resources of all three underlying vSphere clusters. This protects your Kubernetes workloads running inside Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters against failure on a vSphere cluster level. On a single-zone deployment, high-availability for Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters is provided on an ESXi host level by vSphere HA.
Tanzu Kubernetes Grid Authentication Learn what are the different authentication mechanisms and their use with Tanzu Kubernetes Grid clusters.
