On the topic of "why do we need a distributed KV store for an overlay network?" from the blog: there's a good blog post about why Kubernetes doesn't use Docker's libnetwork.

- jaytaylor 10y agoThanks! I had almost forgotten about the container networking mayhem. Would love to find out what progress has been made over the past six months since the blog post was written.
- bboreham 10y agoKubernetes now uses CNI to configure interfaces in its most common "kubenet" configuration, and (obviously) when you put it into "CNI" mode. Most container network offerings - Calico, Flannel, Weave, etc. ship with a CNI plugin. Docker have not altered their network plugin API. (I work on Weave Net, including the plugins for both Docker and CNI)
- bboreham 10y agoAuthor seems to have missed that Calico also depends on etcd.
