Week 04: Full-Stack Microservice Deployment with Kubernetes

This example extends previous weeks' concepts by demonstrating the deployment of a multi-service application (frontend and three backend microservices) onto a local Kubernetes cluster, typically running via Podman Desktop. This setup provides hands-on experience with container orchestration, configuration management, and service discovery within a Kubernetes environment.

Update ConfigMap (configmap.yaml)

• Replace AZURE_STORAGE_CONTAINER_NAME value to your actual container name.

Update Secrets (secrets.yaml)

This file contains non-sensitive configuration data, such as database names or API endpoints.

• Replace AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME and AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_KEY to your actual values.

  NOTE Make sure to convert both values to Base64 before you add in secrets.yaml. Command is given in comment about how to convert to base64.

Update Service k8s files (frontend.yaml, product-service.yaml, order-service.yaml and customer-service.yaml)

• Replace image name to your actual image for all services.
