Tutorial describing how to deploy a webhooks application on a real production cluster. We will create this cluster on Civo. Civo is a cloud provider with a unique offering of managed Kubernetes clusters based on k3s. By Luc Juggery.

Tutorial then dives straight into:

  • Installation of a Ingress Controller
  • Running the application
  • Testing the whole thing

Civo clusters are shipped with a StorageClass as well, we’ll use it in a next article adding persistent storage to the application’s database.
