System Requirements

1. Overview/Introduction

HostSpace Kubernetes Engine (HKE) is an enterprise-grade Kubernetes orchestration platform designed to provide automated scaling, monitoring, and high availability for cloud-native applications. This documentation outlines the system requirements necessary to deploy and manage HKE effectively.

2. Key Features/Components

  • Automated scaling based on resource utilization
  • Advanced monitoring and alerting capabilities
  • High availability through fault-tolerant architecture

3. Step-by-step instructions or configuration details

To meet the system requirements for deploying HKE, ensure that:

  • Each node meets the minimum hardware specifications (e.g., CPU, RAM, storage)
  • Network connectivity is stable and low-latency between nodes
  • Required ports are open for communication within the cluster

4. Best practices and recommendations

  • Regularly monitor system resource utilization to proactively address scaling needs
  • Implement automated backups to prevent data loss in case of failures
  • Keep HKE components up to date with the latest patches and security fixes

Example command to check system resource utilization:

Terminal window
kubectl top nodes

6. Common pitfalls and solutions

This documentation provides a comprehensive guide to understanding and meeting the system requirements for HostSpace Kubernetes Engine (HKE) deployment.
