Lightning Talk: 7 Tips for Tricks to Enjoy Your Kubernetes Journey
summary
Seven actionable tips for Kubernetes: seven items covering what to actually change and why. Optimize the CLI with kubectl + krew and a prompt showing current context to save typing. Always set readiness and liveness probes — misconfigured probes cause immediate pod replacement and can take down production. Create clusters with Terraform (not click-and-point) so configs are reproducible. Choose the right ingress (nginx is common) and enforce YAML with Open Policy Agent to reject bad resources.
