Key benefits

  • Learn best practices from the core maintainer of Helm for application delivery and life cycle management
  • Manage applications deployed in Kubernetes effectively using Helm
  • Go beyond the basics when using Helm with key security considerations and management options

Description

Containerization is one of the best ways to implement DevOps, and learning how to execute it effectively is an essential part of a developer’s skillset. Kubernetes is the current industry standard for container orchestration. This book will help you discover the efficiency of managing applications running on Kubernetes with Helm. Starting with a brief introduction to Helm and its impact on users working with containers and Kubernetes, you’ll delve into the primitives of Helm charts and their architecture and use cases. From there, you’ll understand how to write Helm charts in order to automate application deployment on Kubernetes and work your way toward more advanced strategies. These enterprise-ready patterns are focused on concepts beyond the basics so that you can use Helm optimally, looking at topics related to automation, application development, delivery, lifecycle management, and security. By the end of this book, you’ll have learned how to leverage Helm to build, deploy, and manage applications on Kubernetes.

Who is this book for?

This book is for Kubernetes developers or administrators who are interested in learning Helm to provide automation for app development on Kubernetes. Although no prior knowledge of Helm is required, basic knowledge of Kubernetes application development will be useful.

As someone new to Kubernetes and obviously, Helm, this book has helped to fill in a lot of gaps. And as someone who "learns by doing", I really appreciated all the detailed examples and steps to take Helm for a spin. The example code is available through GitHub so I recommend everyone check that out.Everyone can get started learning Helm and by extension, Kubernetes, using this book, because it includes a guide on how to get started with minikube on your local machine in addition to VirtualBox to run the cluster nodes.As a long time Wordpress user, I found the Wordpress helm chart deployment to be very interesting as it helped me understand how to use Wordpress inside kubernetes, including StatefulSets and PersistentVolumeClaims for the mariaDB database needed by Wordpress.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access.
