Description

Cloud-native technology has emerged as a crucial element in contemporary cloud infrastructure design due to its lightweight nature and remarkable portability. It also enhances the efficiency of development and operations (DevOps), enabling rapid service deployment and fostering business innovation. To expedite the shift toward cloud-native environments while keeping costs low, QCT has validated the performance and service quality of the Red Hat® OpenShift Container Platform and Kubernetes Platform. The QCT QxStack with Cloud-Native Platform is a robust Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering that leverages the Red Hat® OpenShift® Container Platform, augmented by Intel Enhanced Platform Awareness (EPA) technology. This solution, optimized for production-ready performance, incorporates a Hyper Converged Infrastructure (HCI) architecture that enables the coexistence of virtual machines and containers, facilitating resource sharing. Moreover, the solution delivers outstanding network performance and reliability, ensuring optimal capital expenditure (CAPEX) and operational expenditure (OPEX) throughout all phases of new technology deployment, which is essential for businesses looking to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving market.

Description

Flannel serves as a specialized virtual networking layer tailored for containers. In the context of the OpenShift Container Platform, it can be utilized for container networking as an alternative to the standard software-defined networking (SDN) components. This approach is particularly advantageous when deploying OpenShift within a cloud environment that also employs SDN solutions, like OpenStack, allowing for the avoidance of double packet encapsulation across both systems. Each flanneld agent transmits this information to a centralized etcd store, enabling other agents on different hosts to effectively route packets to various containers within the flannel network. Additionally, the accompanying diagram showcases the architecture and the data flow involved in facilitating communication between containers over a flannel network. This setup enhances overall network efficiency and simplifies container management in complex environments.
