Deploy IRIS Application to Azure Using CircleCI
What we’re going to install into the newly created AKS cluster is located in the helm directory. The descriptive Helmfile approach enables us to define applications and their settings in the helmfile.yaml file.

[2022] [Updated] Alternative to Helmfile
Is there any alternative to https://github.com/roboll/helmfile you are currently using in your company.

Projectsveltos: Manage Kubernetes addons in multiple clusters
Interesting, I have approached this problem using Helmfile (https://github.com/roboll/helmfile) to define a “platform release package.”
-
How are you handling ILM on kubernetes?
To make managing the Helm deployments a little easier I used helmfile (https://github.com/roboll/helmfile).
-
Helm Charts Microservices
But in general it's always easier to keep things quite separated. Meaning in separate helm releases. If you want to be able to manage things "together" at will, then you can use helmfile ( https://github.com/roboll/helmfile )

How to Build Software Like an SRE
I agree; helm is too declarative.
Whenever I can, I use helmfile[0] for storing variables for helm since it does add a declarative layer on top of helm.

helmfile sync vs helmfile apply
I went through the Helmfile repo Readme to figure out the difference between helmfile sync and helmfile apply. It seems like unlike the apply command, the sync command doesn't do a diff and helm upgrades the hell out of all releases 😃. But from the word sync, you'd expect the command to apply those releases that have been changed. There is also mention of the potential application of helmfile apply to periodically syncing of releases. Why not use helmfile sync for this purpose? Overall, the difference didn't become crystal clear, and I though there could probably be more to it. So, I'm asking.

Managing multiple repos
helmfile is something i’ve used in the past for this https://github.com/roboll/helmfile
-
Helm is both "package manager" and "templating engine" - probably the best package manager but horrible template engine
I always felt like dependencies in helm are for very simple non-coupled packages. I many times use Helmfile (https://github.com/roboll/helmfile) to manage dependencies instead of banging my head with vanilla Helm.

So I've installed grafana, loki, and prometheus on the personal Kubernetes cluster via Terraform. Now what?
Once you do that, learn to create dynamic helm charts that use go templating and conditionals: https://github.com/roboll/helmfile

Helm-Compose – The Docker-compose like tool for K8s development
We've been using Helmsman (https://github.com/Praqma/helmsman) for the same use case. It supports some other creature comforts (automatic fetching of parameters from AWS SSM, chart ordering, etc.) and seems a bit more mature.

Which GitOps for very small teams?
I've been using https://github.com/Praqma/helmsman for quite a few years now. Very pleased with it.

[2022] [Updated] Alternative to Helmfile
Have you looked at https://github.com/Praqma/helmsman ?

How do you deliver Kubernetes applications in 2022?
Kustomize manifests. Each microservice in its own folder. We have around 10 microservices, so it works for us. Db/metrics/monitoring/operators go into a Helmsman file.
-
Terraform/helm and environment variables
I'm using Helmsman. It's a wrapper around Helm that allows you to inject environmental variables, amongst other things. It allows me to easily inject environmental variables from my Gitlab CI/CD into my Helm release.

How do you automate Helm charts installation?
Here's some issues where people asked the same question: https://github.com/Praqma/helmsman/issues/18 https://github.com/roboll/helmfile/issues/240
