Set up a Kubernetes cluster

Kubernetes supports both managed Kubernetes, and single VPS instances's as options. In this tutorial, we will be using Hetzner.

Create a server on Hetzner

For the purposes of this tutorial, I have a Ubuntu server created on Hetzner with the IP address 5.161.197.8.

Create a Cluster

Navigate to Clusters → + New Cluster.

Give your cluster a name, and select Single VPS Installation.

In this case, our demo server is 5.161.197.8. SSH into the server and run the commands shown on Canine, which will prepare the server for canine.

curl -sfL https://get.k3s.io | sh -s - --disable traefik
sudo cat /etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml
# Copy the output and paste into Canine.

Create the cluster, and Canine will start installing dependencies to the cluster.
