"One container to rule them all"
Now you can create a completely dockerized environment for a platform as a service (PaaS) in no time!
PanteraS contains all the necessary components for a highly robust, highly available, fault tolerant PaaS.
The goal is to spawn fully scalable, easy to monitor, debug and orchestrate services in seconds. Totally independent of
the underlying infrastructure. PanteraS is also fully transferable between development stages. You can run it on your laptop,
test and production systems without hassle.
"You shall not PaaS"
- Mesos + Marathon + ZooKeeper (orchestration components)
- Consul (K/V store, monitoring, service directory and registry) + Registrator (automating register/ deregister)
- Fabio (load balancer with dynamic config generation)
This is the default configuration. It will start all components inside a container.
It is recommended to run 3 master containers to ensure high availability of the PasteraS cluster.
Slave mode is enabled by MASTER=false
In this mode only slave components will start (master part is excluded).
You can run as many slaves as you wish - this is fully scalable.
To connect multiple datacenters use consul join -wan <server 1> <server 2>
Depending on MASTER and SLAVE you can define role of the container
| daemon\role | default | Only Master | Only Slave |
|---|---|---|---|
| . | MASTER=true |
MASTER=true |
MASTER=false |
| . | SLAVE=true |
SLAVE=false |
SLAVE=true |
| Consul | x | x | x |
| Mesos Master | x | x | - |
| Marathon | x | x | - |
| Zookeeper | x | x | - |
| Mesos Slave | x | - | x |
| Registrator | x | - | x |
| Fabio | x | - | x |
| Traefik | - | - | x |
| Netdata | - | - | - |
Optional services (disabled by default) require manual override like START_TRAEFIK=true
- docker >= 1.12
- docker-compose >= 1.8.0
Clone it
git clone -b 0.4.4 https://github.com/eBayClassifiedsGroup/PanteraS.git
cd PanteraS
(master and slave in one box)
# vagrant up
or
# IP=<DOCKER_HOST_IP> ./generate_yml.sh
# docker-compose up -d
Configure zookeeper and consul:
everyhost# mkdir restricted
everyhost# echo 'ZOOKEEPER_HOSTS="masterhost-1:2181,masterhost-2:2181,masterhost-3:2181"' >> restricted/host
everyhost# echo 'CONSUL_HOSTS="-join=masterhost-1 -join=masterhost-2 -join=masterhost-3"' >> restricted/host
everyhost# echo 'MESOS_MASTER_QUORUM=2' >> restricted/host
Lets set only masterhost-1 to bootstrap the consul
masterhost-1# echo 'CONSUL_PARAMS="-bootstrap-expect 3"' >> restricted/host
masterhost-1# echo 'ZOOKEEPER_ID=1' >> restricted/host
masterhost-2# echo 'ZOOKEEPER_ID=2' >> restricted/host
masterhost-3# echo 'ZOOKEEPER_ID=3' >> restricted/host
Optionally, if you have multiple IPs,
set an IP address of docker host (do not use docker0 interface IP)
if you don't set it - it will try to guess dig +short ${HOSTNAME}
masterhost-1# echo 'IP=x.x.x.1' >> restricted/host
masterhost-2# echo 'IP=x.x.x.2' >> restricted/host
masterhost-3# echo 'IP=x.x.x.3' >> restricted/host
masterhost-n# ./generate_yml.sh
masterhost-n# docker-compose up -d
slavehost-n# MASTER=false ./generate_yml.sh
slavehost-n# docker-compose up -d
You can reach the PaaS components on the following ports:
- Fabio: http://hostname:81
- Consul: http://hostname:8500
- Marathon: http://hostname:8080
- Mesos: http://hostname:5050
- Supervisord: http://hostname:9000
- Netdata: http://hostname:19999 (must run
START_NETDATA=true)
All PaaS components listen default on all interfaces (to all addresses: 0.0.0.0),
which might be dangerous if you want to expose the PaaS.
Use ENV LISTEN_IP if you want to listen on specific IP address.
for example:
echo LISTEN_IP=192.168.10.10 >> restricted/host
This might not work for all services like Marathon that has some additional random ports.
You might want to access the PaaS and services with your browser directly via service name like:
http://your_service.service.consul
This could be problematic. It depends where you run docker host. We have prepared two services that might help you solving this problem.
DNS - which supposed to be running on every docker host, it is important that you have only one DNS server occupying port 53 on docker host, you might need to disable yours, if you have already configured.
If you have direct access to the docker host DNS, then just modify your /etc/resolv.conf adding its IP address.
If you do NOT have direct access to docker host DNS,
you can use SSHuttle project
so you can tunnel DNS traffic over ssh
There are two examples available:
SimpleWebappPython - basic example - spawn 2x2 containers
SmoothWebappPython - similar to previous one, but with smooth scaling down
Fabio will balance the ports which where mapped and assigned by marathon.
For non human access like services intercommunication, you can use direct access using DNS consul SRV abilities, to verify answers:
$ dig python.service.consul +tcp SRV
or ask consul DNS directly:
$ dig @$CONSUL_IP -p8600 python.service.consul +tcp SRV
You can deploy your services using marathon_deploy, which also understand YAML and JSON files.
As a benefit, you can have static part in YAML deployment plans, and dynamic part (like version or URL)
set with ENV variables, specified with %%MACROS%% in deployment plan.
apt-get install ruby1.9.1-dev
gem install marathon_deploy
