In this post I will go through the choices I had to make while deploying my cluster and the theory behind the things I consider essential additions for a production grade cluster. Do not expect a step-by-step guide here (it will come later), but you can learn some not-so-obvious concepts behind k8s.
The story of how I almost got this blog totally wrong. While we’re talking about it you can learn about Kubernetes storage in general, ConfigMaps, StatefulSets and the NFS provisioner.
This blog is the first production workload on the Kubernetes cluster I’m building. Here I’m going to blog about the HOW, but before that I want to give some context by explaining the WHY.
