Overview

Updated on 2025-02-18 GMT+08:00

CCE provides multiple types of add-ons to extend cluster functions and meet feature requirements. You can install add-ons as required.

NOTICE:

CCE uses Helm charts to deploy add-ons. To modify or upgrade an add-on, perform operations on the Add-ons page or use open add-on management APIs. Do not directly modify resources related to add-ons in the background. Otherwise, add-on exceptions or other unexpected problems may occur.

Add-on pods are prioritized over service pods. When cluster resources are limited, the add-on pods can use resources that would otherwise be allocated to service pods. This may result in the eviction of service pods.

Scheduling and Elasticity Add-ons

Add-on Name

Description

Volcano Scheduler

This add-on is a scheduler for general-purpose, high-performance computing such as job scheduling, heterogeneous chip management, and job running management, serving end users through computing frameworks for different industries such as AI, big data, gene sequencing, and rendering.

CCE Cluster Autoscaler

This add-on scales in or out the workload nodes in a cluster based on pod scheduling status and resource usage.

CCE Advanced HPA

This add-on is developed by CCE. It can be used to flexibly scale in or out Deployments based on metrics such as CPU usage and memory usage.

CCE Cloud Bursting Engine for CCI

This add-on is an implementation of the open-source Virtual Kubelet project. When momentary traffic spikes occur in a CCE cluster, it scales pods of Deployments, StatefulSets, jobs, and cron jobs to CCI, eliminating the overhead of the cluster.

Cloud Native Observability Add-ons

Add-on Name

Description

Cloud Native Cluster Monitoring

This add-on includes the Prometheus-operator and Prometheus components and provides easy-to-use, end-to-end Kubernetes cluster monitoring.

This add-on allows the monitoring data to be interconnected with Monitoring Center so that you can view monitoring data and configure alarms there.

Cloud Native Log Collection

This add-on is developed based on Fluent Bit and OpenTelemetry for collecting logs. It supports CRD-based log collection policies, and collects and forwards standard output logs, container file logs, node logs, and Kubernetes events in a cluster.

CCE Node Problem Detector

This add-on monitors abnormal events of cluster nodes and connects to a third-party monitoring platform. It is a daemon running on each node. It collects node issues from different daemons and reports them to the API server. It can run as a DaemonSet or a daemon.

CCE Network Metrics Exporter

This add-on monitors and manages container network traffic. It collects how many IPv4 packets and bytes are received and sent (including those sent to the Internet) and allows you to obtain pod labels. It supports multiple monitoring tasks, allows you to select monitoring metrics, and uses a PodSelector to select monitoring backends. The monitoring information has been adapted to Prometheus. You can call the Prometheus API to view monitoring data.

Kubernetes Metrics Server

This add-on is an aggregator for monitoring data of core cluster resources.

Grafana

This add-on is an open source visualized data monitoring platform. It provides you with various charts and panels for real-time monitoring, analysis, and visualization of various metrics and data sources.

Prometheus (EOM)

This add-on is an open-source system monitoring and alerting framework. CCE allows you to quickly install Prometheus as an add-on.

Cloud Native Heterogeneous Computing Add-ons

Add-on Name

Description

CCE AI Suite (NVIDIA GPU)

This add-on supports and manages GPUs in containers. Only NVIDIA drivers are supported.

CCE AI Suite (Ascend NPU)

This add-on supports and manages NPUs in containers.

Container Network Add-ons

Add-on Name

Description

CoreDNS

This add-on is a DNS server that provides domain name resolution for Kubernetes clusters through a chain add-on.

NGINX Ingress Controller

This add-on forwards application data such as the data of virtual hosts, load balancers, SSL proxy, and HTTP routing for Services that can be directly accessed outside a cluster.

NodeLocal DNSCache

This add-on functions as a DaemonSet to run the DNS cache proxy on each cluster node to improve cluster DNS performance.

Container Storage Add-on

Add-on Name

Description

CCE Container Storage (Everest)

This add-on is a cloud native container storage system, which enables clusters of Kubernetes v1.15.6 or later to use cloud storage through the Container Storage Interface (CSI).

Container Security Add-ons

Add-on Name

Description

CCE Secrets Manager for DEW

This add-on is used to interconnect with Data Encryption Workshop (DEW), which allows you to mount secrets stored outside a cluster (DEW for storing sensitive information) to pods. In this way, sensitive information can be decoupled from the cluster environment, which prevents information leakage caused by program hardcoding or plaintext configuration.

Container Image Signature Verification

This add-on allows you to verify the digital signature of an image file, ensuring its integrity and authenticity. It effectively prevents tampering or malicious code implantation, ensuring user security.

Other Add-ons

Add-on Name

Description

Kubernetes Dashboard

This add-on is a general-purpose, web-based UI for Kubernetes clusters and integrates all commands that can be used in the command-line interface (CLI). It allows users to manage applications running in a cluster and troubleshoot faults, as well as manage the cluster itself.

OpenKruise

This add-on is a Kubernetes-based extension suite that automates cloud native application tasks like deployment, release, O&M, and availability protection.

Gatekeeper

This add-on is a customizable cloud native policy controller based on Open Policy Agent (OPA). It helps enhance policy execution and governance and provides more security policy rules that comply with Kubernetes application scenarios in clusters.

Kubernetes Web Terminal (EOM)

This add-on allows you to use kubectl on a web UI. It can connect to Linux by using WebSocket through a browser and provides APIs for integration into independent systems. It can be directly used as a service to obtain information through the configuration management database (CMDB) and log in to the server.

Add-on Lifecycle

An add-on lifecycle involves all the statuses of the add-on from installation to uninstallation.

Table 1 Add-on statuses

Status

Attribute

Description

Running

Stable state

The add-on is running properly, all add-on instances are deployed properly, and the add-on can be used properly.

Partially ready

Stable state

The add-on is running properly, but some add-on instances are not properly deployed. In this state, the add-on functions may be unavailable.

Unavailable

Stable state

The add-on malfunctions, and all add-on instances are not properly deployed.

Installing

Intermediate state

The add-on is being deployed.

If all instances cannot be scheduled due to incorrect add-on configuration or insufficient resources, the system sets the add-on status to Unavailable 10 minutes later.

Installation failed

Stable state

Install add-on failed. Uninstall it and try again.

Upgrading

Intermediate state

The add-on is being upgraded.

Upgrade failed

Stable state

Upgrade add-on failed. Upgrade it again, or uninstall it and try again.

Rolling back

Intermediate state

The add-on is rolling back.

Rollback failed

Stable state

The add-on rollback failed. Retry the rollback, or uninstall it and try again.

Deleting

Intermediate state

The add-on is being deleted.

If this state stays for a long time, an exception occurred.

Deletion failed

Stable state

Delete add-on failed. Try again.

Unknown

Stable state

No add-on chart found.

NOTE:

When an add-on is in an intermediate state such as Installing or Deleting, you are not allowed to edit or uninstall the add-on.

If the add-on status is unknown and the returned status.Reason is "don't install the addon in this cluster", the secret associated with the Helm release of the add-on in the cluster is typically deleted by mistake. In this case, uninstall the add-on and reinstall it with the same configurations.
