Depending on what you're looking for, if it's just an environment to play around with, minikube is a good option: https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube And as another poster stated, kubeadm is a good way to get started on a VM or local system by following this guide: https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/independent/install-kubeadm/ https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/independent/install-kubeadm... And last, possibly not what you're looking for but worth mentioning, there are commercial options available such as gravitational telekube which includes among other features a way to consistently install kubernetes amongst different environments and providers https://gravitational.com/telekube/ https://gravitational.com/telekube/. *Please be aware though that I'm affiliated with gravitational and work on telekube

I use minikube locally for developing on, but so far I've not been able to get a production k8s cluster up. As I replied to the other poster, the last time I tried kubeadm, I was completely unable to get past setting up a cluster network, at best. This was some time ago, so I do want to spend time to try again soon, but so far my experience has been pretty negative. telekube looks pretty interesting, but sadly I don't have the money for any commercial offerings; side-projects can be a pain like that.

  I had some trouble setting up networking the first time, IMHO weave should be higher up in the suggested CNI plugins. Since I started using weave-net, I have never had to think about it again. An example of one of those really great tools that just gets out of your way and does exactly what it's supposed to do. My cluster is one node only but it was bootstrapped with kubeadm, and has served me well since 1.5.2. I've never heard of anyone having trouble with the Weave networking. I use my (production kube instance) as a Jenkins server with my own chart that is derived from the Jenkins helm chart, with kubernetes-plugin for slave scheduling.
