Kubernetes Tutorials

The following tutorials highlight the Kubernetes platform using complete end-to-end scenarios.

If this is your first time getting started with Pulumi for Kubernetes, try the easy Get Started guide first.

Tutorials are available for a number of Kubernetes tasks:

  • Clusters - provisioning a new Kubernetes cluster
  • Workloads - effectively running applications
  • Day Two Tasks - complex tasks for managing existing Kubernetes environments

Clusters

These tutorials will help you provision a Kubernetes cluster on your cloud of choice:

Workloads

These tutorials deploy application workloads to any Kubernetes cluster, managed or self-managed:

Hello, World

Deploy an Nginx web server to Kubernetes and expose it to the Internet with a public IP address.

Helm Charts

Deploy the WordPress Helm Chart to your cluster.

Guestbook App

Deploy a multi-service, load balanced Guestbook application using Redis and Nginx.

Graceful App Rollout

Deploy an application, perform a cascading update, and monitor deployment progress visually as it occurs.

Stateless Application

Deploy a stateless application using a Kubernetes Deployment, and then dynamically scale it out.

Day Two Tasks

These tutorials tackle difficult “day two” tasks:

Gated Rollouts

Stage a rollout from a 3-replica canary to 10-replica staging environment, gating progress on Prometheus health checks.
