I'm aware that Kubernetes uses containerd
internally and that containerd
is part of Docker. Does that mean that Kubernetes only uses certain parts of Docker to provide orchestration of containers? Additionally, how does runc
fit into this ecosystem, I'm aware Kubernetes uses it because CVEs affecting runc
impact Kubernetes.
I've not been able to find out what the technical components of Kubernetes are; there are plenty of diagrams out there showing the logical elements (i.e. masters, nodes, kubelets, deployments, services, pods, etc.). However, I'm trying to get into the details a bit more and understand what parts make up Kubernetes.
Is it possible to describe how Kubernetes is constructed from its components such as runc
, containerd
and Docker?
