# Kubernetes on AWS

## Create AWS Account and IAM Account

AWS account allow us to manage AWS from Web Console. Amazon IAM enable us to manage AWS from command line interface.

We need to create an IAM user with sufficient privilege to create kubernetes cluster on AWS.

To sign up an AWS account, please
follow
[this guide](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/setting-up.html).
To create IAM users and user groups under an AWS account, please
follow
[this guide](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_users_create.html).

Please be aware that this tutorial needs the following privileges for the user in IAM:

- AmazonEC2FullAccess
- AmazonS3FullAccess
- AmazonRoute53FullAccess
- AmazonRoute53DomainsFullAccess
- AmazonElasticFileSystemFullAccess
- AmazonVPCFullAccess
- IAMUserSSHKeys
- IAMFullAccess
- NetworkAdministrator
- AWSKeyManagementServicePowerUser


## PaddlePaddle on AWS

Here we will show you step by step on how to run PaddlePaddle training on AWS cluster.


### Download kube-aws and kubectl

#### kube-aws

[kube-aws](https://github.com/coreos/kube-aws) is a CLI tool to automate cluster deployment to AWS.

Import the CoreOS Application Signing Public Key:

```
gpg2 --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-key FC8A365E
```

Validate the key fingerprint:

```
gpg2 --fingerprint FC8A365E
```
The correct key fingerprint is `18AD 5014 C99E F7E3 BA5F 6CE9 50BD D3E0 FC8A 365E`

Go to the [releases](https://github.com/coreos/kube-aws/releases) and download release tarball (this tutorial is using v0.9.1) and detached signature (.sig) for your architecture.

Validate the tarball's GPG signature:

```
PLATFORM=linux-amd64
 # Or
PLATFORM=darwin-amd64

gpg2 --verify kube-aws-${PLATFORM}.tar.gz.sig kube-aws-${PLATFORM}.tar.gz
```

Extract the binary:

```
tar zxvf kube-aws-${PLATFORM}.tar.gz
```

Add kube-aws to your path:

```
mv ${PLATFORM}/kube-aws /usr/local/bin
```


#### kubectl

[kubectl](https://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/kubectl-overview/) is a command line interface for running commands against Kubernetes clusters.

Download `kubectl` from the Kubernetes release artifact site with the `curl` tool.

```
# OS X
curl -O https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/"$(curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/stable.txt)"/bin/darwin/amd64/kubectl

# Linux
curl -O https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/"$(curl -s https://storage.googleapis.com/kubernetes-release/release/stable.txt)"/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl
```

Make the kubectl binary executable and move it to your PATH (e.g. `/usr/local/bin`):

```
chmod +x ./kubectl
sudo mv ./kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl
```

### Configure AWS Credentials

First check out [this](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/installing.html) for installing the AWS command line interface.

And then configure your AWS account information:

```
aws configure

```


Fill in the required fields:


```
AWS Access Key ID: YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID
AWS Secrete Access Key: YOUR_SECRETE_ACCESS_KEY
Default region name: us-west-1
Default output format: json
```

`YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, and `YOUR_SECRETE_ACCESS_KEY` is the IAM key and secret from [Create AWS Account and IAM Account](#create-aws-account-and-iam-account)

Verify that your credentials work by describing any instances you may already have running on your account:

```
aws ec2 describe-instances
```

### Define Cluster Parameters

#### EC2 key pair

The keypair that will authenticate SSH access to your EC2 instances. The public half of this key pair will be configured on each CoreOS node.

Follow [EC2 Keypair docs](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-key-pairs.html) to create a EC2 key pair

After creating a key pair, you will use the key pair name to configure the cluster.

Key pairs are only available to EC2 instances in the same region. We are using us-west-1 in our tutorial, so make sure to creat key pairs in that region (N. California).

#### KMS key

Amazon KMS keys are used to encrypt and decrypt cluster TLS assets. If you already have a KMS Key that you would like to use, you can skip creating a new key and provide the Arn string for your existing key.

You can create a KMS key in the AWS console, or with the aws command line tool:

```
aws kms --region=us-west-1 create-key --description="kube-aws assets"
{
    "KeyMetadata": {
        "CreationDate": 1458235139.724,
        "KeyState": "Enabled",
        "Arn": "arn:aws:kms:us-west-1:aaaaaaaaaaaaa:key/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "AWSAccountId": "xxxxxxxxxxxxx",
        "Enabled": true,
        "KeyUsage": "ENCRYPT_DECRYPT",
        "KeyId": "xxxxxxxxx",
        "Description": "kube-aws assets"
    }
}
```

We will need to use the value of `Arn` later.

And then you need to add several inline policies in your user permission.

Go to IAM user page, click on `Add inline policy` button, and then select `Custom Policy`

paste into following inline policies:

```
{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "Stmt1482205552000",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "kms:Decrypt",
                "kms:Encrypt"
            ],
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:kms:*:AWS_ACCOUNT_ID:key/*"
            ]
        },
		{
            "Sid": "Stmt1482205746000",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "cloudformation:CreateStack",
                "cloudformation:UpdateStack",
                "cloudformation:DeleteStack",
                "cloudformation:DescribeStacks",
                "cloudformation:DescribeStackResource",
                "cloudformation:GetTemplate",
                "cloudformation:DescribeStackEvents"
            ],
            "Resource": [
                "arn:aws:cloudformation:us-west-1:AWS_ACCOUNT_ID:stack/MY_CLUSTER_NAME/*"
            ]
        }
    ]
}
```

`AWS_ACCOUNT_ID`: You can get it from following command line:

```
aws sts get-caller-identity --output text --query Account
```

`MY_CLUSTER_NAME`: Pick a MY_CLUSTER_NAME that you like, you will use it later as well.

#### External DNS name

When the cluster is created, the controller will expose the TLS-secured API on a DNS name.

The A record of that DNS name needs to be point to the cluster ip address.

We will need to use DNS name later in tutorial. If you don't already own one, you can choose any DNS name (e.g., `paddle`) and modify `/etc/hosts` to associate cluster ip with that DNS name.

#### S3 bucket

You need to create an S3 bucket before startup the Kubernetes cluster.

There are some bug in aws cli in creating S3 bucket, so let's use [web console](https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/home?region=us-west-1).

Click on `Create Bucket`, fill in a unique BUCKET_NAME, and make sure region is us-west-1 (Northern California).


#### Initialize an asset directory

Create a directory on your local machine to hold the generated assets:

```
$ mkdir my-cluster
$ cd my-cluster
```

Initialize the cluster CloudFormation stack with the KMS Arn, key pair name, and DNS name from the previous step:

```
kube-aws init \
--cluster-name=MY_CLUSTER_NAME \
--external-dns-name=MY_EXTERNAL_DNS_NAME \
--region=us-west-1 \
--availability-zone=us-west-1a \
--key-name=KEY_PAIR_NAME \
--kms-key-arn="arn:aws:kms:us-west-1:xxxxxxxxxx:key/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
```

`MY_CLUSTER_NAME`: the one you picked in [KMS key](#kms-key)

`MY_EXTERNAL_DNS_NAME`: see [External DNS name](#external-dns-name)

`KEY_PAIR_NAME`: see [EC2 key pair](#ec2-key-pair)

`--kms-key-arn`: the "Arn" in [KMS key](#kms-key)

Here `us-west-1a` is used for parameter `--availability-zone`, but supported availability zone varies among AWS accounts.

Please check if `us-west-1a` is supported by `aws ec2 --region us-west-1 describe-availability-zones`, if not switch to other supported availability zone. (e.g., `us-west-1a`, or `us-west-1b`)

Note: please don't use `us-west-1c`. Subnets can currently only be created in the following availability zones: us-west-1b, us-west-1a.

There will now be a cluster.yaml file in the asset directory. This is the main configuration file for your cluster.


#### Render contents of the asset directory

In the simplest case, you can have kube-aws generate both your TLS identities and certificate authority for you.

```
kube-aws render credentials --generate-ca
```

The next command generates the default set of cluster assets in your asset directory.

```
kube-aws render stack
```

Here's what the directory structure looks like:

```
$ tree
.
├── cluster.yaml
├── credentials
│   ├── admin-key.pem
│   ├── admin.pem
│   ├── apiserver-key.pem
│   ├── apiserver.pem
│   ├── ca-key.pem
│   ├── ca.pem
│   ├── worker-key.pem
│   └── worker.pem
│   ├── etcd-key.pem
│   └── etcd.pem
│   ├── etcd-client-key.pem
│   └── etcd-client.pem
├── kubeconfig
├── stack-template.json
└── userdata
    ├── cloud-config-controller
    └── cloud-config-worker
```

These assets (templates and credentials) are used to create, update and interact with your Kubernetes cluster.


### Kubernetes Cluster Start Up

#### Create the instances defined in the CloudFormation template

Now let's create your cluster (choose any PREFIX for the command below):

```
kube-aws up --s3-uri s3://BUCKET_NAME/PREFIX
```

`BUCKET_NAME`: the bucket name that you used in [S3 bucket](#s3-bucket)


#### Configure DNS

You can invoke `kube-aws status` to get the cluster API endpoint after cluster creation.

```
$ kube-aws status
Cluster Name:		paddle-cluster
Controller DNS Name:	paddle-cl-ElbAPISe-EEOI3EZPR86C-531251350.us-west-1.elb.amazonaws.com
```

Use command `dig` to check the load balancer hostname to get the ip address.

```
$ dig paddle-cl-ElbAPISe-EEOI3EZPR86C-531251350.us-west-1.elb.amazonaws.com

;; QUESTION SECTION:
;paddle-cl-ElbAPISe-EEOI3EZPR86C-531251350.us-west-1.elb.amazonaws.com. IN A

;; ANSWER SECTION:
paddle-cl-ElbAPISe-EEOI3EZPR86C-531251350.us-west-1.elb.amazonaws.com. 59 IN A 54.241.164.52
paddle-cl-ElbAPISe-EEOI3EZPR86C-531251350.us-west-1.elb.amazonaws.com. 59 IN A 54.67.102.112
```

In the above output, both ip `54.241.164.52`, `54.67.102.112` will work.

If you own a DNS name, set the A record to any of the above ip. Otherwise you can edit `/etc/hosts` to associate ip with the DNS name.

#### Access the cluster

Once the API server is running, you should see:

```
$ kubectl --kubeconfig=kubeconfig get nodes
NAME                                       STATUS                     AGE
ip-10-0-0-xxx.us-west-1.compute.internal   Ready                      5m
ip-10-0-0-xxx.us-west-1.compute.internal   Ready                      5m
ip-10-0-0-xx.us-west-1.compute.internal    Ready,SchedulingDisabled   5m
```


### Setup PaddlePaddle Environment on AWS

Now, we've created a cluster with following network capability:

1. All Kubernetes nodes can communicate with each other.

1. All Docker containers on Kubernetes nodes can communicate with each other.

1. All Kubernetes nodes can communicate with all Docker containers on Kubernetes nodes.

1. All other traffic loads from outside of Kubernetes nodes cannot reach to the Docker containers on Kubernetes nodes except for creating the services for containers.


For sharing the training data across all the Kubernetes nodes, we use EFS (Elastic File System) in AWS. Ceph might be a better solution, but it requires high version of Linux kernel that might not be stable enough at this moment. We haven't automated the EFS setup at this moment, so please do the following steps:


1. Make sure you added AmazonElasticFileSystemFullAccess policy in your group.

1. Create the Elastic File System in AWS console, and attach the new VPC with it.
<center>![](src/create_efs.png)</center>


1. Modify the Kubernetes security group under ec2/Security Groups, add additional inbound policy "All TCP TCP 0 - 65535 0.0.0.0/0" for Kubernetes default VPC security group. 
<center>![](src/add_security_group.png)</center>


1. Follow the EC2 mount instruction to mount the disk onto all the Kubernetes nodes, we recommend to mount EFS disk onto ~/efs.
<center>![](src/efs_mount.png)</center>


Before starting the training, you should place your user config and divided training data onto EFS. When the training start, each task will copy related files from EFS into container, and it will also write the training results back onto EFS, we will show you how to place the data later in this article.



###Core Concept of PaddlePaddle Training on AWS

Now we've already setup a 3 nodes distributed Kubernetes cluster, and on each node we've attached the EFS volume, in this training demo, we will create three Kubernetes pod and scheduling them on 3 node. Each pod contains a PaddlePaddle container. When container gets created, it will start pserver and trainer process, load the training data from EFS volume and start the distributed training task.

####Use Kubernetes Job

We use Kubernetes job to represent one time of distributed training. After the job get finished, Kubernetes will destroy job container and release all related resources.

We can write a yaml file to describe the Kubernetes job. The file contains lots of configuration information, for example PaddlePaddle's node number, `paddle pserver` open port number, the network card info etc., these information are passed into container for processes to use as environment variables.

In one time of distributed training, user will confirm the PaddlePaddle node number first. And then upload the pre-divided training data and configuration file onth EFS volume. And then create the Kubernetes job yaml file; submit to the Kubernetes cluster to start the training job.

####Create PaddlePaddle Node

After Kubernetes master gets the request, it will parse the yaml file and create several pods (defined by PaddlePaddle's node number), Kubernetes will allocate these pods onto cluster's node. A pod represents a PaddlePaddle node, when pod is successfully allocated onto one physical/virtual machine, Kubernetes will startup the container in the pod, and this container will use the environment variables in yaml file and start up `paddle pserver` and `paddle trainer` processes.


####Start up Training

After container gets started, it starts up the distributed training by using scripts. We know `paddle train` process need to know other node's ip address and it's own trainer_id, since PaddlePaddle currently don't have the ability to do the service discovery, so in the start up script, each node will use job pod's name to query all to pod info from Kubernetes apiserver (apiserver's endpoint is an environment variable in container by default).

With pod information, we can assign each pod a unique trainer_id. Here we sort all the pods by pod's ip, and assign the index to each PaddlePaddle node as it's trainer_id. The workflow of starting up the script is as follows:

1. Query the api server to get pod information, and assign the trainer_id by sorting the ip.
1. Copy the training data from EFS sharing volume into container.
1. Parse the `paddle pserver` and 'paddle trainer' startup parameters from environment variables, and then start up the processes.
1. PaddlePaddle will automatically write the result onto the PaddlePaddle node with trainer_id:0, we set the output path to be the EFS volume to save the result data.


###Start PaddlePaddle Training Demo on AWS

Now we'll start a PaddlePaddle training demo on AWS, steps are as follows:

1. Build PaddlePaddle Docker image.
1. Divide the training data file and upload it onto the EFS sharing volume.
1. Create the training job yaml file, and start up the job.
1. Check the result after training.

####Build PaddlePaddle Docker Image

PaddlePaddle docker image need to provide the runtime environment for `paddle pserver` and `paddle train`, so the container use this image should have two main function:

1. Copy the training data into container.
1. Generate the startup parameter for `paddle pserver` and `paddle train` process, and startup the training.


Since official `paddledev/paddle:cpu-latest` have already included the PaddlePaddle binary, but lack of the above functionalities, so we will create the startup script based on this image, to achieve the work above. the detailed Dockerfile is as follows:

```
FROM paddledev/paddle:cpu-latest

MAINTAINER zjsxzong89@gmail.com

COPY start.sh /root/
COPY start_paddle.py /root/
CMD ["bash"," -c","/root/start.sh"]
```

At this point, we will copy our `start.sh` and `start_paddle.py` file into container, and then exec `start_paddle.py` script to start up the training, all the steps like assigning trainer_id, getting other nodes' ip are implemented in `start_paddle.py`.

`start_paddle.py` will start parsing the parameters.

```
parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(prog="start_paddle.py",
                                     description='simple tool for k8s')
    args, train_args_list = parser.parse_known_args()
    train_args = refine_unknown_args(train_args_list)
    train_args_dict = dict(zip(train_args[:-1:2], train_args[1::2]))
    podlist = getPodList()
```

And then using function `getPodList()` to query all the pod information from the job name through Kubernetes api server. When all the pods are in the running status, using `getIdMap(podlist)` to get the trainer_id.

```
    podlist = getPodList()
    # need to wait until all pods are running
    while not isPodAllRunning(podlist):
        time.sleep(10)
        podlist = getPodList()
    idMap = getIdMap(podlist)
```

In function `getIdMap(podlist)`, we use podlist to get the ip address for each pod and sort them, use the index as the trainer_id.

```
def getIdMap(podlist):
    '''
    generate tainer_id by ip
    '''
    ips = []
    for pod in podlist["items"]:
        ips.append(pod["status"]["podIP"])
    ips.sort()
    idMap = {}
    for i in range(len(ips)):
        idMap[ips[i]] = i
    return idMap
```

After getting `idMap`, we use function `startPaddle(idMap, train_args_dict)` to generate `paddle pserver` and `paddle train` start up parameters and then start up the processes.

In function `startPaddle`, the most important work is to generate `paddle pserver` and `paddle train` start up parameters. For example, `paddle train` parameter parsing, we will get parameters like `PADDLE_NIC`, `PADDLE_PORT`, `PADDLE_PORTS_NUM`, and get the `trainer_id` from `idMap`.

```
    program = 'paddle train'
    args = " --nics=" + PADDLE_NIC
    args += " --port=" + str(PADDLE_PORT)
    args += " --ports_num=" + str(PADDLE_PORTS_NUM)
    args += " --comment=" + "paddle_process_by_paddle"
    ip_string = ""
    for ip in idMap.keys():
        ip_string += (ip + ",")
    ip_string = ip_string.rstrip(",")
    args += " --pservers=" + ip_string
    args_ext = ""
    for key, value in train_args_dict.items():
        args_ext += (' --' + key + '=' + value)
    localIP = socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname())
    trainerId = idMap[localIP]
    args += " " + args_ext + " --trainer_id=" + \
        str(trainerId) + " --save_dir=" + JOB_PATH_OUTPUT
```

Use `docker build` to build toe Docker Image:

```
docker build -t your_repo/paddle:mypaddle .
```

And then push the built image onto docker registry.

```
docker push  your_repo/paddle:mypaddle
```

####Upload Training Data File

Here we will use PaddlePaddle's official recommendation demo as the content for this training, we put the training data file into a directory named by job name, which located in EFS sharing volume, the tree structure for the directory looks like:

```
efs
└── paddle-cluster-job
    ├── data
    │   ├── 0
    │   │
    │   ├── 1
    │   │
    │   └── 2
    ├── output
    └── recommendation
```

The `paddle-cluster-job` directory is the job name for this training, this training includes 3 PaddlePaddle node, we store the pre-divided data under `paddle-cluster-job/data` directory, directory 0, 1, 2 each represent 3 nodes' trainer_id. the training data in in recommendation directory, the training results and logs will be in the output directory.


####Create Kubernetes Job

Kubernetes use yaml file to describe job details, and then use command line tool to create the job in Kubernetes cluster.

In yaml file, we describe the Docker image we use for this training, the node number we need to startup, the volume mounting information and all the necessary parameters we need for `paddle pserver` and `paddle train` processes.

The yaml file content is as follows:

```
apiVersion: batch/v1
kind: Job
metadata:
  name: paddle-cluster-job
spec:
  parallelism: 3
  completions: 3
  template:
    metadata:
      name: paddle-cluster-job
    spec:
      volumes:
      - name: jobpath
        hostPath:
          path: /home/admin/efs
      containers:
      - name: trainer
        image: drinkcode/paddle:k8s-job
        command: ["bin/bash",  "-c", "/root/start.sh"]
        env:
        - name: JOB_NAME
          value: paddle-cluster-job
        - name: JOB_PATH
          value: /home/jobpath
        - name: JOB_NAMESPACE
          value: default
        - name: TRAIN_CONFIG_DIR
          value: recommendation
        - name: CONF_PADDLE_NIC
          value: eth0
        - name: CONF_PADDLE_PORT
          value: "7164"
        - name: CONF_PADDLE_PORTS_NUM
          value: "2"
        - name: CONF_PADDLE_PORTS_NUM_SPARSE
          value: "2"
        - name: CONF_PADDLE_GRADIENT_NUM
          value: "3"
        volumeMounts:
        - name: jobpath
          mountPath: /home/jobpath
        ports:
        - name: jobport
          hostPort: 30001
          containerPort: 30001
      restartPolicy: Never

```

In yaml file, the metadata's name is the job's name. `parallelism, completions` means this job will simultaneously start up 3 PaddlePaddle nodes, and this job will be finished when there are 3 finished pods. For the data store volume, we declare the path jobpath, it mount the /home/admin/efs on host machine into the container with path /home/jobpath. So in container, the /home/jobpath actually stores the data onto EFS sharing volume.

`env` field represents container's environment variables, we pass the PaddlePaddle parameters into containers by using the `env` field.

`JOB_PATH` represents the sharing volume path, `JOB_NAME` represents job name, `TRAIN_CONFIG_DIR` represents the training data file directory, we can these three parameters to get the file path for this training.

`CONF_PADDLE_NIC` represents `paddle pserver` process's `--nics` parameters, the NIC name.

`CONF_PADDLE_PORT` represents `paddle pserver` process's `--port` parameters, `CONF_PADDLE_PORTS_NUM` represents `--port_num` parameter.

`CONF_PADDLE_PORTS_NUM_SPARSE` represents the sparse updated port number, `--ports_num_for_sparse` parameter.

`CONF_PADDLE_GRADIENT_NUM` represents the training node number, `--num_gradient_servers` parameter.

After we create the yaml file, we can use Kubernetes command line tool to create the job onto the cluster.

```
kubectl create -f job.yaml
```

After we execute the above command, Kubernetes will create 3 pods and then pull the PaddlePaddle image, then start up the containers for training.



####Check Training Results

During the training, we can see the logs and models on EFS sharing volume, the output directory contains the training results. (Caution: node_0, node_1, node_2 directories represents PaddlePaddle node and train_id, not the Kubernetes node)

```
[root@paddle-kubernetes-node0 output]# tree -d
.
├── node_0
│   ├── server.log
│   └── train.log
├── node_1
│   ├── server.log
│   └── train.log
├── node_2
......
├── pass-00002
│   ├── done
│   ├── ___embedding_0__.w0
│   ├── ___embedding_1__.w0
......
```

We can always check the container training status through logs, for example:

```
[root@paddle-kubernetes-node0 node_0]# cat train.log
I1116 09:10:17.123121    50 Util.cpp:155] commandline:
 /usr/local/bin/../opt/paddle/bin/paddle_trainer
    --nics=eth0 --port=7164
    --ports_num=2 --comment=paddle_process_by_paddle
    --pservers=192.168.129.66,192.168.223.143,192.168.129.71

It'll take around 8 hours to finish this PaddlePaddle recommendation training demo on three 2 core 8 GB EC2 machine (m3.large).


###Kubernetes Cluster Tear Down


If you want to tear down the whole Kubernetes cluster, make sure to *delete* the EFS volume first (otherwise, you will get stucked on following steps), and then use the following command:

```
kube-aws destroy
```
It's an async call, it might take 5 min to tear down the whole cluster.

If you created any Kubernetes Services of type LoadBalancer, you must delete these first, as the CloudFormation cannot be fully destroyed if any externally-managed resources still exist.



## For Experts with Kubernetes and AWS

Sometimes we might need to create or manage the cluster on AWS manually with limited privileges, so here we will explain more on what’s going on with the Kubernetes setup script.

### Some Presumptions

* Instances run on CoreOS, the official IAM.
* Kubernetes node use instance storage, no EBS get mounted. Etcd is running on additional node.
* For networking, we use Flannel network at this moment, we will use Calico solution later on.
* When you create a service with Type=LoadBalancer, Kubernetes will create and ELB, and create a security group for the ELB.
