Summary
In this chapter, we learned about template code generation on Kubernetes. We reviewed how to create flexible resource templates using both Helm and Kustomize. With this knowledge, you will be able to template your complex applications using either solution, create, or deploy releases. Then, we reviewed two types of CI/CD on Kubernetes; first, external CI/CD deployment to Kubernetes via kubectl, and then in-cluster CI paradigms using FluxCD. With these tools and techniques, you will be able to set up CI/CD to Kubernetes for production applications.
In the next chapter, we will review security and compliance on Kubernetes, an important topic in today's software environment.
