<p>I need to connect a service running in a local container inside Docker on my machine to a database that's running on a Kubernetes cluster.</p>
<p>Everything I found on port forwarding allowed me to connect my machine to the cluster, but not the local container to the cluster (unless I install kubectl on my container, which I cannot do).</p>
<p>Is there a way to do this?</p>

<p><a href="https://www.telepresence.io/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://www.telepresence.io/</a> is what you're looking for. It will hook into the cluster network like a VPN and patch the services so traffic will get routed through the tunnel.</p>
