Kubernetes (k8s) is rapidly becoming the de facto runtime for cloud-native software. Helm is a powerful tool for deploying software into k8s. Helm can deploy multiple containers and services into k8s in a coordinated manner, often based on pre-defined "charts" provided by service vendors.

You will learn:

  • How k8s and Helm relate to each other
  • How Helm is used to deploy services to k8s
  • The components of Helm (charts, Tiller, etc.)
