Odroid Cluster

Say hello to my little odroid kubernetes cluster project.

Details are: 5 x Odroid-MC1's as worker nodes. All up 10gb RAM and 40 cores. 1 x Odroid-N2 as master node. Plus 5v 20a power supply and Netgear GS108.

Got parts as a Christmas present to myself some years ago with no plan as to what I was going to with them. While putting it together I though I could use it to learn Kubernetes as I've seen others do similar things.

I followed this tutorial loosely and it's all working wonderfully. It's cool to be introduced to ansible, which I had heard about but not used before. I'm currently developing some apps that I'd like to run on it.

Update Mid 2021

I decided to totally rebuild this having never been able to get Rancher set up on it. See the details of that here

Update 2021-12-21

I have sadly now decomissioned this little cluster. The five MC1 units are currently unused and the N2 is now my media PC in my bedroom. Not all is sad though, I decomissiod it because I replaced it with a bigger and better setup using old HP t620 thin clients, of which I got 5 for a rediculously good price at a local IT liquidation auction.
