A Kubemark cluster uses the power of Kubernetes. To set up a Kubemark cluster, perform the following steps:
- Create a regular Kubernetes cluster where we can run N hollow-nodes.
- Create a dedicated VM to start all master components for the Kubemark cluster.
- Schedule N hollow-node pods on the base Kubernetes cluster. Those hollow-nodes are configured to talk to the Kubemark API server running on the dedicated VM.
- Create add-on pods by scheduling them on the base cluster and configuring them to talk to the Kubemark API server.
