6:15-7:45: Microservices with Kubernetes – Ray Tsang

Learn how to create a Java-based microservice using Spring Boot, containerize it using Maven plugins, and subsequently deploy a fleet of microservices onto a cluster of machines using Kubernetes.

Running a single microservice is fast and easy. Like most Java applications, the harder part is usually the clustering and fail-over configurations.

First, we’ll create a microservice using Spring Boot, and, subsequently, generate and create Docker images during the build process, and finally we’ll deploy the microservice into Kubernetes:

– Defining pods and services

– Perform rolling upgrades of the application

– Canary new versions of the microservices into the fleet

– Linking microservices to Redis using Kubernetes

– Configure Health Check and Readiness Checks

– Managing configurations via arguments, environmental variables, and ConfigMap

The best part is we can visualize all these activities happening in Kubernetes.
