KubeNow is a cloud agnostic platform for microservices, based on Docker and Kubernetes. Other than lighting-fast Kubernetes operations, KubeNow helps you in lifting your final application configuring DNS records and distributed storage. Once you have defined your application as a Helm package, lifting it is as simple as:
```bash
kn init my-awesome-deployemt
cd my-awesome-deployemt
kn apply
kn helm install my-app-package
```

## Architecture
Deploying a KubeNow cluster you will get:
- A Kubernetes cluster up and running in ~10 minutes (provisioned with [kubeadm](http://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/kubeadm/))
- [Flannel](https://github.com/coreos/flannel) networking
- [Traefik](https://traefik.io/) HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer
- [Cloudflare](https://www.cloudflare.com/) dynamic DNS configuration
- [GlusterFS](https://www.gluster.org/) distributed file system
In a KubeNow cluster there are 3 instance types:
- **Master**: it runs the Kubernetes master, and it optionally acts as an ingress controller proxying from the Internet to the application services through its public IP.
- **Service**: it runs a Kubernetes node and it hosts application services.
- **Edge**: it is a specialized service node with a public IP associated, it acts as an ingress controller proxying from the Internet to the application services. It can run application services as well. Edge nodes are optional.
- **Storage**: it is a specialized service node that runs only a GlusterFS server. One or more *glusternodes* can be used to provide distributed storage for the application services. Glusternodes are optional.
**Cloudflare** can be optionally used to setup DNS records and SSL/TSL (HTTPS) encryption.
## Manifesto
- We want fast deployments: each instance provision itself independently and immutable images are used
- We use existing provisioning tools: [Terraform](https://www.terraform.io/), [Packer](https://www.packer.io/), [Ansible](https://www.ansible.com/) and [kubeadm](http://kubernetes.io/docs/getting-started-guides/kubeadm)
- We avoid resources that are available only for a specific cloud provider
- We provision IaaS, PaaS and SaaS: lifting a distributed application should be possible with a few commands
