What is this?
Helm packages Kubernetes YAML as charts with values for reusable installs/upgrades.
Why should you care?
CloudVerse standardizes app deploys as charts with env-specific values files.
See it live — copy this example
Use AWS/Azure/GCP free tier or local Docker/Kind. Sketches and YAML are meant to be typed and adapted.
# helm upgrade --install api ./charts/api -f values.prod.yaml -n cloudverse
# values.prod.yaml
replicaCount: 3
image:
tag: "1.2.0"
What happened?
- Charts template manifests.
- Pin chart versions.
- Review rendered YAML before prod.
Practice next
- helm create or use chart.
- Install to namespace.
- helm rollback.
- helm template | kubectl diff.
- Add values.dev.yaml.
Remember
Charts + values. Upgrade/rollback. Render before apply.
CloudVerse Helm api
Same chart, prod values.
Outcome: Repeatable upgrades with rollback.
