Book Description
Containerization is currently known to be one of the best ways to
implement DevOps. While Docker introduced containers and changed the
DevOps era, Google developed an extensive container orchestration
system, Kubernetes, which is now considered the frontrunner in container
orchestration. With the help of this book, you'll explore the efficiency
of managing applications running on Kubernetes using Helm.
Starting with a short introduction to Helm and how it can benefit the
entire container environment, you'll then delve into the architectural
aspects, in addition to learning about Helm charts and its use cases.
You'll understand how to write Helm charts in order to automate
application deployment on Kubernetes. Focused on providing
enterprise-ready patterns relating to Helm and automation, the book
covers best practices for application development, delivery, and
lifecycle management with Helm.
By the end of this Kubernetes book, you will have learned how to
leverage Helm to develop an enterprise pattern for application delivery.
What you will learn
- Develop an enterprise automation strategy on Kubernetes using Helm
- Create easily consumable and configurable Helm charts
- Use Helm in orchestration tooling and Kubernetes operators
- Explore best practices for application delivery and life cycle
management
- Leverage Helm in a secure and stable manner that is fit for your
enterprise
- Discover the ins and outs of automation with Helm
Who this book is for
This book is for Kubernetes developers or administrators who are
interested in learning Helm to provide automation for application
development on Kubernetes. Although no prior knowledge of Helm is
required, basic knowledge of Kubernetes application development will be
useful.
