## Rancher Overview - Hands On
|
||||
|
||||
In this section we are going to take a look at Rancher, so far everything we have done has been in the cli and using kubectl but we have a few really good UIs and multi cluster management tools to give our operations teams good visibility into our cluster management.

Rancher is according to their [site](https://rancher.com/)

> Rancher is a complete software stack for teams adopting containers. It addresses the operational and security challenges of managing multiple Kubernetes clusters across any infrastructure, while providing DevOps teams with integrated tools for running containerized workloads.

Rancher enables us to deploy production grade Kubernetes clusters from pretty much any location and then provides centralised authentication, access control and observability. I mentioned in a previous section that there is almost an overwhelming choice when it comes to Kubernetes and where you should or could run them, looking at Rancher it really doesn't matter where they are.

### Deploy Rancher
|
||||
|
||||
The first thing we need to do is deploy Rancher on our local workstation, there are few ways and locations you can choose to proceed with this step, for me I want to use my local workstation and run rancher as a docker container. By running the command below we will pull down a container image and then have access to the rancher UI.

### A quick tour of rancher
|
||||
|
||||
The first thing for us to look at is our locally deployed K3S cluster You can see below that we get a good visual on what is happening inside our cluster. This is the default deployment and we have not yet deployed anything to this cluster. You can see it is made up of 1 node and has 5 deployments. Then you can also see that there are some stats on pods, cores and memory.

On the left hand menu we also have an Apps & Marketplace tab, this allows us to choose applications we would like to run on our clusters, as mentioned previously Rancher gives us the capability of running or managing a number of different clusters. With the marketplace we can deploy our applications very easily.

Another thing to mention is that if you did need to get access to any cluster being managed by Rancher in the top right you have the ability to open a kubectl shell to the selected cluster.

### Create a new cluster
|
||||
|
||||
Over the past two sessions we have created a minikube cluster locally and we have used Vagrant with VirtualBox to create a 3 node Kubernetes cluster, with Rancher we can also create clusters. In the [Rancher Folder](Kubernetes/Rancher) you will find additional vagrant files that will build out the same 3 nodes but without the steps for creating our Kubernetes cluster (we want Rancher to do this for us)

We do however want docker installed and for the OS to be updated so you will still see the `common.sh` script being ran on each of our nodes. This will also install Kubeadm, Kubectl etc. But it will not run the Kubeadm commands to create and join our nodes into a cluster.

We can navigate to our vagrant folder location and we can simply run `vagrant up` and this will begin that process of creating our 3 VMs in virtualbox.

I have been told since that the requirements around bootstrapping rancher nodes requires those VMs to have 4GB ram or they will crash-loop, I have since updated as our worker nodes had 2GB.
