As long the user can install packages (say, via /etc/sudoers file), make config changes, Yes. That's supported by our installer [0]. [0] https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/blob/master/i...

Redhat probably has the best production quality deployment for self hosted Kubernetes. They support running glusterfs: https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible/blob/master/i... Personally I wouldn't do it unless you have a RedHat contract (or already have a team that manages glusterfs), but its worth looking at.

We are using https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible which gets you a k8s cluster + user management and a great web interface. I actually learned a lot about cluster management from that repo since it goes through all the standard best practices.

RedHat has a production Ansible script for OpenShift: https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible most of which is Kubernetes setup. Its amazing how much actually goes on here. Firewall rules, certificates, Docker storage configuration, etc. Its definitely not something that you can just thrown in a VM and assume everything will work.

In Kubernetes the Hard Way

There is also Redhat's Openshift Origin, the Open-source, host-it-yourself version of their Openshift platform. They've done a great job of documentation and on-boarding new people to try it out. They have a nice set of ansible scripts or docker images which will get you up and running pretty quickly[1]. I currently run a lot of stuff in Azure, and there is a great deployment template to get your orgin cluster up and running here [2] Underneath the hood it is just docker, kubernetes, and some other goodness. Color me super impressed with this. Note, for something way, way, more simple I highly recomment Dokku [3] [1] - https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible [2] - https://github.com/derdanu/azure-openshift [3] - https://github.com/dokku/dokku
