KWOK is a toolkit that enables setting up a cluster of thousands of Nodes in seconds. Under the scene, all Nodes are simulated to behave like real ones, so the overall approach employs a pretty low resource footprint that you can easily play around with on your laptop.

Features

  • kwok is the cornerstone of this project, responsible for simulating the lifecycle of fake nodes, pods, and other Kubernetes API resources
  • kwokctl is a CLI tool designed to streamline the creation and management of clusters, with nodes simulated by kwok
  • You can simulate thousands of nodes on your laptop without significant consumption of CPU or memory resources. Currently, KWOK can reliably maintain 1k nodes and 100k pods easily
  • You can create and delete clusters and nodes almost instantly, without waiting for boot or provisioning
  • Currently, KWOK can create 20 nodes or pods per second
  • KWOK works with any tools or clients that are compliant with Kubernetes APIs, such as kubectl, helm, kui, etc.
  • KWOK has no specific hardware or software requirements. You can run it using pre-built images, once Docker or Nerdctl is installed
  • You can configure different node types, labels, taints, capacities, conditions, etc., and you can configure different pod behaviors, status, etc. to test different scenarios and edge cases
