Creating Kubernetes pods, ReplicaSets, and deployments

This post is the 4th in our Kubernetes training series, providing DevOps engineers with an introduction to Docker, Kubernetes, and Octopus.

This video demonstrates Kubernetes pods, ReplicaSets, and deployments, deploying examples of each.

If you don't already have Octopus account, you can start a free trial.

If you're looking to build and deploy containerized applications to AWS platforms such as EKS and ECS, the Octopus Workflow Builder populates a GitHub repository with a sample application built with GitHub Actions workflows and configures a hosted Octopus instance with sample deployment projects demonstrating best practices such as vulnerability scanning and Infrastructure as Code (IaC).

Happy deployments!
