Simplifying Python Web App Operations: Automating K8s Ops with Open Source

on YouTube ↗31m

" summary

Deploys a simple Flask app to Kubernetes using concrete tools and live demos: creates production‑grade OCI image with rockcraft, shows Helm charts (namespace, Deployment, Service, Ingress) on microk8s, and uses fly.io (requires login/payment and supplies a non‑production Dockerfile). Then deploys via Juju with built‑in Postgres and Ingress where migrations run and a visitors counter increments on each request. Everything runs end‑to‑end in the demo: hello world responses and visitor counts increase.
