Simple and Component-based Kubernetes Guestbook Apps

This example lives in the pulumi/examples repository. Check out just this directory to use it:

Get started with this example
git clone --filter=blob:none --sparse https://github.com/pulumi/examples pulumi-examples
git -C pulumi-examples sparse-checkout set kubernetes-py-guestbook
cd pulumi-examples/kubernetes-py-guestbook

A port of the standard Kubernetes Guestbook to Pulumi. This example shows you how to build and deploy a simple, multi-tier web application using Kubernetes and Docker, and consists of three components:

  • A single-instance Redis master to store guestbook entries
  • Multiple replicated Redis instances to serve reads
  • Multiple web frontend instances

In this directory, you will find two variants of the Guestbook:

  1. simple/ is a straight port of the original YAML.
  2. components demonstrates benefits of using a real language, namely eliminating boilerplate through the use of real component abstractions.

Both examples provision the exact same Kubernetes Guestbook application, but showcase different aspects of Pulumi.
