kubectl basics
Here are some of the basic kubectl commands.
Cert-manager Certificate Issuer
With cert-manager installed, SSL certificates can be automatically obtained for Ingresses deployed in a Kubernetes cluster. To achieve this, one must deploy the appropriate ClusterIssuers to the cluster. Here are example manifests to do so.
Dissecting a Kubernetes manifest
Kubernetes manifests can seem quite daunting at first, but it is important to understand that their apparent complexity is simply a result of the large number of customization options. In the end, manifests are used to deploy resources that interact with each other, which, among others, lead to the correct operations of containerized applications. Consequently, resources specified in a manifest must be configured accordingly. This article aims at explaining how manifests are structured to do so.
K8s NGINX Deployment for Ingress test
An NGINX container can be quite useful to test whether one's Kubernetes setup is working. Here is one example manifest file that deploys such container with an appropriate service and ingress.
Gitlab CI commands for TF serving
This is an example .gitlab-ci.yml file which can be used to containerize and deploy a tensorflow model

Nginx as reverse proxy in Kubernetes
Although API gateways such as Kong exist, a simple reverse-proxy can be created using NGINX. Here is a sample manifest to do so in Kubernetes
Kubernetes and Docker equivalence
Kubernetes is a container orchestration system. As such, it features functions that are similar to that of Docker. If a container can be run with the Docker CLI, it can also be run equivalently using Kubernetes. This articles highlights such equivalence by presenting how to deploy a PostgreSQL instance using both technologies.
Node.js DevOps example
In this article, we’ll build a simple Node.js application that uses Express to respond to HTTP requests. In order to deploy this application to production, we’ll also configure a GitLab CI/CD pipeline so as to dockerize it and deploy its container to a Kubernetes cluster.
