Helm – The Kubernetes Package Manager hands-on course
Complete Course on Helm and Gitlab Integration for Kubernetes Deployments
Created by Ahmed Elfakharany | 4.5 hours on-demand video course
Helm is a tool used to package Kubernetes manifest files that are used to install a cloud-native application. Deployments, Services, Ingresses, ConfigMaps, etc. are all packed into a Helm chart. Using this Helm chart, you can deploy the app to a Kubernetes cluster the same way you use apt-get in Ubuntu, or brew on a macOS.
After completing this Helm – The Kubernetes Package Manager hands-on course, you will have a working knowledge of Helm. You’ll be able not only to use ready-made Helm Charts to automate day-to-day deployments, but you’ll also automate the most complex Kubernetes deployments and contribute them to the community.
