Summary
In this chapter, we started by introducing ourselves to reactive programming and built a Spring Boot CRUD application. We were also introduced to Skaffold's supported container image builders, including Docker, kaniko, Jib, and Buildpacks. We covered them by looking at their practical implementations. We also discussed the different ways we can deploy images to a Kubernetes cluster using tools such as kubectl, Helm, and Kustomize.
In this chapter, we gained a solid understanding of tools such as Jib, kaniko, Helm, and Kustomize, to name a few. You can apply your knowledge of these tools to build and deploy your containers.
In the next chapter, we will build and deploy a Spring Boot application to Kubernetes using Google's Cloud Code extension.
