Workshop: Enabling preview environments on Kubernetes
Developer self-service is the buzzword of the month. The ability to spin up fully provisioned preview environments with every pull request can help your developers to rapidly test and iterate on new functionality. This will decrease the change-failure rate and will let them innovate and go fast without breaking things or bothering cloud operations.
In this step-by-step workshop, Chris Stephenson will demonstrate how to enable preview environments on any CI/CD setup, any Kubernetes setup, and for any application. He will demo a setup using GKE on the Google Cloud Platform, GitHub Actions for CI, CloudSQL as database, a microservice application, and Humanitec as the “platform glue”. He will show-case:
- How to wire up infrastructure to Humanitec
- How to configure preview environments
- How developers can use preview environments on a daily basis
After a 30 minutes demo, there will be 15 minutes for Q&A. We’d like to encourage you to submit your questions in advance.
Audience - who should join?
DevOps Engineers, Site Reliability Engineers, System Engineers, Infrastructure Kubernetes Administrators, Technical Architects, Application Developers with an affinity with DevOps and Technical Management.
