Fully automated Zero-Trust VPN for DevOps // Twingate #2

In this video, I will explore the integration of Twingate with DevOps, focusing on its new Kubernetes operator and managing resources via Terraform. Discover how these tools enhance security and simplify access management in a HomeLab environment, making Twingate a potentially ideal Zero-Trust Networking solution for DevOps professionals. Let's dive into setting up and automating secure access to IT resources.

I was really hoping you'd explain what you are *not* using Twingate for.

What other multi-network are actively in your toolbox? OpenVPN? WireGuard? Tailscale? ZeroTier? Netbird? Firezone? Do you combine any of these?

if you add --create-namespace to the helm upgrade command you don't have to create the NS manually
if -n twingate exists, helm will use it. If it doesn't helm will create it first

[pablofernandezrecaman]

is there any way to have ssl certificates inside twingate in this kubernetes environment?

[tarose]

Hey Christian, if this is your second video on TwinGate (hence the #2 in the title?) shouldnt you include a link to the first one in the video description?

[berndeckenfels]

So you don’t need to do the resource access per resource, you can just have the resourceRef match “owner:TeamA” and it will allow to attach to all pods in the namespace, right?

@christianlempa you asked for suggestions of other Zero Trust Tools you might cover. How about OpenZiti, Pritunl or Hashicorp Boundary?

[CharlesFlippet]

Thanks for the video. Just a kind request - see if you can make your video fram a lot smaller please, if possible? Thanks. Much appreciated.

Hello can you suggest me any tool that can help me easy to manage terraform codes and easy deploy and configuration

[Gilgwathir]

Eeehy cease and desist! You are using Terraform, you can't use an open source tool for things. That's copyright infringement! You can't even look at it.

Open Source drama aside: I'm reall interested in this one, I've been doing some research in this space. Excited to compare my notes to yours.

Anyone else steer clear of anything related to Kubernetes? I just find it too difficult to use and I always have problems.
