Technical requirements
Starting from this chapter, we will work on a Jenkins server running on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) within the Azure platform. However, it’s important to note that the steps mentioned can also be applied to a Jenkins server running on any type of Kubernetes cluster, regardless of the underlying infrastructure.
To proceed with this chapter, please ensure that you have a Jenkins server up and running, and the following tools installed on your local development environment:
- An IDE such as Visual Studio Code or anything you choose
kubectl
, the Kubernetes command-line tool- The Helm CLI, to deploy workloads on the Kubernetes cluster
