Kubernetes Workspace

Kubernetes

These tutorials assume you have access to a Kubernetes environment with full cluster admin privileges and have a basic understand of Kubernetes.

If you need to provision a Kubernetes environment, there are a few options I would suggest:

• Create a free Google Cloud account with $300 in credit and use Kubernetes Engine. Kubernetes Engine is not a free service but you can use the free credit to pay for the service.
• Create a DigitalOcean account and use their Managed Kubernetes Service. This is not a free service and there is no free credit easily available.
• Use minikube or KIND for running Kubernetes locally on your machine.

Other Requirements

Install the Helm client on your laptop and initialise Helm within Kubernetes with cluster admin priviliges. You can follow the Helm documenation on how to do this.

Lastly, install Kubectl if you have not already so you can interact with Kubernetes.
