It's great to see more options out there for folks to start playing with Kubernetes. It can be a bit daunting initially, especially for newcomers.
As an alternative, I started a project called "Corekube" (https://github.com/metral/corekube https://github.com/metral/corekube) that allows you to kick the tires on Kubernetes on top of CoreOS.
Corekube is an OpenStack based Heat template that just requires an OpenStack provider to stand up a Kubernetes cluster in minutes - the cluster comes complete with a private Etcd discovery service, 1 K8s master, 3 K8s minions, and a logic coordinator/deployment operator aka "the Overlord" which interacts with Etcd, Fleet and K8s via their API's to set things up.

- metral 12y agoCorekube's Heat template is structured to allow up to 12 minions to be used, you just have to change the parameter. I have a blog post on the Rackspace Dev Blog from when I initially released it, but it is a bit outdated - https://developer.rackspace.com/blog/running-coreos-and-kubernetes/ https://developer.rackspace.com/blog/running-coreos-and-kube... Most of the same information on the blog can be pulled from the README as far as I'm aware, but I'm happy to answer any further questions.
