About the lecture

Having a development cycle that can keep up with rapid iteration and change is important when introducing new features to the enterprise. Not just to build Kubernetes clusters, but to create a faster development cycle, improve business efficiency, provide overall visibility, and enable faster recovery through troubleshooting techniques.

Whether you’re just starting out or an active user of Kubernetes, this deployment starter kit will help you become productive and focus on your business logic from day one.

What will you learn

  • How to get the most out of your Kubernetes investment while simplifying operations and controlling costs.
  • Why it’s worth building your own repeatable stack for a particular next-day operation.
  • What to think about when building your Kubernetes starter suite — looking for reliable, cloud-independent products and tools with predictable costs — for containerization, monitoring, logging, backup, entry, advanced observability, GitOps, and incremental publishing.

DOKS Quick start

On DigitalOcean, Kubernetes takes just a few minutes

DigitalOcean Kubernetes (DOKS) is a manageable Kubernetes service that lets you deploy Kubernetes clusters without having to deal with the complexities of the control plane and containerized infrastructure. The cluster is compatible with the standard Kubernetes toolchain and integrates natively with DigitalOcean load balancer and block storage volumes.
