Is Kubenetes related software automatically installed on Ubuntu?












0















I have since yesterday noticed that the top command has been showing kubelet, kube-apiserver, kube-controller and other Kubernetes related processes running on my computer. This is alarming me and making me wonder why and what if I have been pwnd.



I have Lubuntu installed for over 2 years now. I have upgraded to 18.04 about 4 months ago. I have been using Linux Containers on this distro since it was installed.



I never use docker and barely know much about Kubernetes and don't know why these processes are running on my computer.



I also haven't seen that these software are automatically installed in Ubuntu.



So I guess my question is should these processes be on my computer if I haven't installed anything related to Kubernetes?



Also can they used for hacking purposes?
