Learn

ℹ️	This repo is a part of the Gruntwork Infrastructure as Code Library, a collection of reusable, battle-tested, production ready infrastructure code. If you’ve never used the Infrastructure as Code Library before, make sure to read How to use the Gruntwork Infrastructure as Code Library!

Core concepts

• Kubernetes core concepts: learn about Kubernetes architecture (control plane, worker nodes), access control (authentication, authorization), resources (pods, controllers, services, config, secrets), and more.

• How do you run applications on Kubernetes?

• What is Helm?

• Kubernetes in Action: the best book we’ve found for getting up and running with Kubernetes.

Repo organization

• charts: the main implementation code for this repo, broken down into multiple standalone, orthogonal Helm charts.

• examples: This folder contains working examples of how to use the submodules.

• test: Automated tests for the modules and examples.

Deploy

Non-production deployment (quick start for learning)

If you just want to try this repo out for experimenting and learning, check out the following resources:

• examples folder: The examples folder contains sample code optimized for learning, experimenting, and testing (but not production usage).

• Gruntwork Subscriber Only k8s-service in the Acme example Reference Architecture: Production-ready sample code from the Acme Reference Architecture examples.

Manage

Day-to-day operations

• How do I expose my application internally to the cluster?

• How do I expose my application externally, outside of the cluster?

• How do I deploy a worker service?

• How do I check the status of the rollout?

• How do I set and share configurations with the application?

Major changes

• How do you update the application to a new version?

• How do I ensure a minimum number of Pods are available across node maintenance?
