zipkin-on-kubernetes

Here you can find ready to use zipkin yaml file which can be deployed via kubernetes and uses elastic-search cluster for saving the data. Please follow below steps in order to get successfully created zipkin cluster:

1. Install ElasticSearch System:

kubectl apply -f https://download.elastic.co/downloads/eck/1.2.1/all-in-one.yaml

This will create namespace elastic-system and prepare everything in order to install and configure ES automatically.

2. Install elastic-search:

kubectl apply -f elasticsearch-kubernetes.yaml

This will create two valume for storing the data, install ElasticSearch on it and configure service. After successfully installation you will be able to access your ES on port 30200 from outside of your cluster. (http://<YOUR_HOST>:30200)

Username by default is elastic and password can be obtained using below command:

PASSWORD=$(kubectl -n elastic-system get secret quickstart-es-elastic-user -o go-template='{{.data.elastic | base64decode}}') && echo $PASSWORD

In order to uninstall quickstart you can execute:

kubectl delete elasticsearch quickstart -n elastic-system && kubectl delete pv elasticsearch-pv-1 && kubectl delete pv elasticsearch-pv-0

If you want to uninstall whole ES system then use below command:

kubectl delete -f https://download.elastic.co/downloads/eck/1.2.1/all-in-one.yaml

Logs can be viewed using below command:

kubectl -n elastic-system logs -f statefulset.apps/elastic-operator

If you want to push some data to ES in order test if everything works properly or not you can use below command:

curl -u "elastic:$PASSWORD" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -XPOST "http://<YOUR_HOST>:30200/indexname/typename/optionalUniqueId" -d "{ \"test-field\" : \"test-value\"}"

3. Install Zipkin:

kubectl apply -f zipkin-kubernetes.yaml

This will create namespace zipkin, two replicas of zipkin server and service which can be accessed from the outside on port 30411 (can be accessed from http://<YOUR_HOST>:30411)

4. Install kibana. This step is an optional but recommended to view what we have inside ES:

kubectl apply -f kibana-kubernetes.yaml

This will install single kibana instance and export service on port 30601 (can be accessed from https://<YOUR_HOST>:30601)

Username by default is elastic and password can be obtained using below command:

kubectl -n elastic-system get secret quickstart-es-elastic-user -o=jsonpath='{.data.elastic}' | base64 --decode; echo

If you want to uninstall the kibana just execute below command:

kubectl delete kibana quickstart -n elastic-system
