Whether for testing your application or simply because you don’t want to spend to much time on configuration, automating your cluster creation its an obvious decision for leveraging DevOps.
On this post, we described a project for a CI/CD pipeline in Kubernetes which relies on Rancher and Ansible to automate clusters creation for testing purposes.
Cluster Templating in Rancher is one of the core functionalities that we used in our automation.
What we did in our automation is to rely on dynamic inventory and Ansible Roles to fully prepare our nodes before running this part of the playbook.
But, to get the most of it, we also want to deploy our application on this cluster, register the ingress endpoint in DNS and tell our Devs that their cluster is ready, with their new featured deployed.
