Event-driven computing with Kubernetes

on YouTube ↗46m

" summary

Brigade shows how to chain existing container images with JavaScript inside a vanilla Kubernetes cluster, triggered by GitHub webhooks, container registry pushes and CloudEvents, including a working PR-preview pipeline that creates a namespace per PR and automatically deletes it on merge. KEDA demonstrates event-driven autoscaling by introducing a ScaledObject CRD that converts queue length into HPA metrics, supporting Kafka, RabbitMQ and Azure Service Bus and letting deployments scale from 0 up to a configured max (example: 0→10, 50s polling).
