Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • k3s-ansible

  • I use some ansible playbooks and when I am ready to update the version I update the variable in the playbooks. https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s-ansible

  • helm-charts

    A collection of Helm charts (by bjw-s)

  • Spinning up workloads in kubernetes is much different than just spinning up a container in docker or even with docker compose. If someone has not already packaged it in a helm chart or some other kubernetes workload you'll have to develop one yourself. There are some nice library charts you can use as a base that should handle just about any random docker image you want to deploy. https://github.com/bjw-s/helm-charts/tree/main/charts/library/common there is also a repo of pre developed charts for common images. https://github.com/k8s-at-home/charts but be aware it was recently deprecated so it won't be receiving any updates.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
