keepalived

Microk8s is great if you're lazy. I've recently built a small-ish 3 node cluster hosting internal apps for a few hundred users and pretty much the only setup I needed to do was: install it with Snap*, enable a few plugins (storage, traefik, coredns), run the join command on each node and set up a basic loadbalancer using haproxy** and keepalived***. * I don't like Snap. Like, a lot. But unfortunately there aren't any other options at the moment. ** I have HAProxy load-balancing both the k8s API and the ingresses. Both on L4 so I can terminate TLS on the ingress controller and automatically provision Let's Encrypt certs using cert-manager[1]. *** Keepalived[2] juggles a single floating IP between all the nodes so you can just run HAProxy on the microk8s nodes instead of having dedicated external loadbalancers.
