Drupal and Container Orchestration: Using Kubernetes to Manage All the Things

Cloud hosting can provide great cost savings for any organization, but taking infrastructure management into your own hands can prove a challenge. Modern web applications are rarely as simple as a single Drupal install—and operating at scale only complicates the matter. We need a solution that allows developers to define infrastructure and networking for their applications and manage deployments with ease.

This session addresses how to use Kubernetes, a powerful open-source tool designed to manage applications in the cloud. How does your team prepare a Drupal site for container orchestration? How can you manage multiple environments such as production, pre-production, and local? How can you integrate your non-Drupal web services?



We will review:

Containerizing Drupal
Service Discovery
Configuration and Secrets Management
Load balancing
Auto-scaling a cluster
Integrate External Services
Deploy with Rolling Updates


This session is for:

Solution Architects
Developers

Could you potentially share the files? I'm unsure if the snippets for the yaml files are individual files that you run in the command line for your kubernetes or if they are all in one file.
