The chapter also described more advanced Kubernetes features that cover a fundamental role in practical applications, including how to provide persistent storage to the containers running on Kubernetes, how to inform Kubernetes of the health state of your containers, and how to offer advanced HTTP services, such as HTTPS and name-based virtual hosting.
Finally, we reviewed how to install complex applications with Helm, and gave a short description of Helm and Helm commands.
