Deployment with Kubernetes
As you have reached this chapter, you already know how to bootstrap microservices, set up the logic for accessing the database, implement service APIs, use serialization, and enable asynchronous communication between your microservices. Now, we are ready to cover a topic that is very important in practice—microservice deployment.
Deployment is a technique of uploading and running your code to one or multiple servers that are often located remotely. Prior to this chapter, we assumed that all services are run locally. We implemented services using static hardcoded local addresses, such as localhost for Kafka. At some point, you will need to run your services remotely—for example, on a remote server or in a cloud, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Microsoft Azure.
