TiDB Operator 1.0 GA release, it is implemented TiDB deployment and operation and maintenance of on Kubernetes. Provided, including deployment, upgrade, scalable capacity, backup and recovery, configuration changes TiDB lifecycle management. With TiDB Operator, TiDB can run seamlessly in the public or private cloud cluster on the deployment of Kubernetes.
GA 1.0 is the first version TiDB Operator, the core has the following highlights:
- Simplified operation and maintenance management TiDB : TiDB Operator operation and maintenance of the injection professional knowledge TiDB by custom resource object (Custom Resource), the custom controller (Custom controller) and extended scheduler (Scheduler extender) is Kubernetes, allow the user to Kubernetes declarative style API to manage TiDB cluster. Specifically, users only need to describe the cluster size, TiDB Operator will continue to adjust Kubernetes resources, drive the actual cluster meet this description. In this mode, TiDB cluster will automatically complete health check services, failover, and deploy, upgrade, scalable capacity and other operations modify the specifications defined by a cluster of "one-click" Finish, greatly simplifies cluster TiDB operation and maintenance management.
- Stable and reliable : To ensure stable operation and maintenance of all automation and reliable operation, specially designed for the TiDB Operator stability test, while applying a large load of reading and writing, ongoing operation and maintenance of various types of operations and simulated host, container, disk, network , various types of failures Kubernetes TiDB Operator components and assemblies, observed under these scenarios TiDB Operator's behavior is in line with expectations .
- Cloudy Support : 1.0 provides for AWS, Google and Ali cloud cloud Terraform deployment scripts. These scripts can help you create a Kubernetes cluster within ten minutes, and the deployment of one or more of their production available TiDB cluster on the cluster. In the follow-up of the management process, Terraform script will operate on the relevant cloud resources while operating TiDB cluster. For example, when a TiDB cluster expansion, Terraform script will automatically create more cloud servers to host the resource needs of the cluster expansion.
By Terraform in AWS ( deployment documentation ), Google cloud ( deployment documentation ), Ali cloud ( deployment documentation ) rapid deployment TiDB Operator and subordinates TiDB cluster on, can also refer to General Kubernetes deployment documentation deployed on any Kubernetes cluster and experience TiDB Operator.
For Pre GA version users, please refer to the 1.0 Release Note what's changing and Upgrade Guide 1.0.
