Kubespray's roadmap
=================

### Kubeadm
- Switch to kubeadm deployment as the default method after some bugs are fixed:
  * Support for basic auth
  * cloudprovider cloud-config mount [#484](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubeadm/issues/484)

### Self deployment (pull-mode) [#320](https://github.com/kubespray/kubespray/issues/320)
- the playbook would install and configure docker/rkt and the etcd cluster
- the following data would be inserted into etcd: certs,tokens,users,inventory,group_vars.
- a "kubespray" container would be deployed (kubespray-cli, ansible-playbook)
- to be discussed, a way to provide the inventory
- **self deployment** of the node from inside a container [#321](https://github.com/kubespray/kubespray/issues/321)

### Provisioning and cloud providers
- [ ] Terraform to provision instances on **GCE, AWS, Openstack, Digital Ocean, Azure**
- [ ] On AWS autoscaling, multi AZ
- [ ] On Azure autoscaling, create loadbalancer [#297](https://github.com/kubespray/kubespray/issues/297)
- [ ] On GCE be able to create a loadbalancer automatically (IAM ?) [#280](https://github.com/kubespray/kubespray/issues/280)
- [x] **TLS boostrap** support for kubelet (covered by kubeadm, but not in standard deployment) [#234](https://github.com/kubespray/kubespray/issues/234)
  (related issues: https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/20439 <br>
   https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/18112)

### Tests
- [ ] Run kubernetes e2e tests
- [ ] Test idempotency on single OS but for all network plugins/container engines
- [ ] single test on AWS per day
- [ ] test scale up cluster:  +1 etcd, +1 master, +1 node
- [ ] Reorganize CI test vars into group var files

### Lifecycle
- [ ] Upgrade granularity: select components to upgrade and skip others

### Networking
- [ ] Opencontrail
- [ ] Consolidate network_plugins and kubernetes-apps/network_plugins

### Kubespray API
- Perform all actions through an **API**
- Store inventories / configurations of mulltiple clusters
- make sure that state of cluster is completely saved in no more than one config file beyond hosts inventory

### Addons (helm or native ansible)
Include optionals deployments to init the cluster:
##### Monitoring
- Heapster / Grafana ....
- **Prometheus**

##### Others

##### Dashboards:
 - kubernetes-dashboard
 - Fabric8
 - Tectonic
 - Cockpit

##### Paas like
 - Openshift Origin
 - Openstack
 - Deis Workflow

### Others
- remove nodes (adding is already supported)
- Organize and update documentation (split in categories)
- Refactor downloads so it all runs in the beginning of deployment
- Make bootstrapping OS more consistent
- **consul** -> if officialy supported by k8s
- flex volumes options (e.g. **torrus** support) [#312](https://github.com/kubespray/kubespray/issues/312)
- Clusters federation option (aka **ubernetes**) [#329](https://github.com/kubespray/kubespray/issues/329)
