Kubernetes-Based Course Delivery System
Objective:
To develop a scalable, resilient, and cloud-native platform for delivering online courses using Kubernetes for container orchestration, ensuring high availability and efficient resource utilization.
Why Choose This Project:
-
Provides automated scaling and management of course delivery services.
-
Ensures seamless access for a large number of concurrent learners.
-
Integrates cloud-native architecture, containerization, and DevOps practices, which are essential for modern e-learning platforms.
-
Reduces downtime and enables faster deployment of course updates.
Key Features:
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Containerized Services | Each module (video streaming, quizzes, analytics) runs in isolated Docker containers. |
| Automated Scaling | Kubernetes automatically scales pods based on user demand. |
| High Availability | Ensures uninterrupted access with replicas and load balancing. |
| Continuous Deployment | Supports CI/CD pipelines for fast deployment of course updates. |
| Monitoring & Logging | Collect metrics and logs from all containers for performance and troubleshooting. |
| Multi-Tenant Support | Host multiple courses or institutions on the same cluster securely. |
| Cloud Integration | Deployable on AWS EKS, Azure AKS, or GCP GKE for cloud-native scaling. |
Technology Stack:
-
Frontend: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React.js / Angular.
-
Backend: Node.js (Express) or Python (Django / Flask).
-
Containerization: Docker for packaging microservices.
-
Orchestration: Kubernetes (K8s) for deployment, scaling, and management.
-
Database: MySQL / PostgreSQL / MongoDB.
-
CI/CD Tools: Jenkins, GitLab CI/CD, or GitHub Actions for automated deployments.
-
Monitoring & Logging: Prometheus, Grafana, and ELK Stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana).
-
Cloud Platform: AWS EKS, Azure AKS, or GCP GKE.
Working Flow:
-
Course Content Deployment
-
Course services (video streaming, quizzes, assignments) are packaged as Docker containers.
-
-
Kubernetes Cluster Deployment
-
Containers are deployed as pods in Kubernetes clusters.
-
Load balancing distributes traffic among pods.
-
-
Auto-Scaling & Resource Management
-
Kubernetes monitors CPU/memory usage and scales pods automatically.
-
-
Continuous Updates
-
CI/CD pipelines deploy updated course content without downtime.
-
-
Monitoring & Logging
-
Prometheus and Grafana track metrics; ELK stack collects logs for analysis.
-
-
Student Access
-
Learners access courses through a web interface, while Kubernetes ensures stable and fast delivery.
-
Main Modules:
-
Course Content Service Module (video, quizzes, assignments)
