Unlock Lightning-Fast RaspberryPi Kubernetes Cluster Setup: Turbocharge Initialization with FluxCD!
In this series, I’ll first show you what Flux is and how it works, and later show you how to put all the basic Kubernetes configuration into a Git repository to add load balancer, ingress with cert-manager, and persistent storage with a single command.
The problem
In my previous articles, I demonstrated how to enhance my Raspberry Pi 4 cluster by incorporating various components such as MetalLB load balancer and Traefik with Cert-Manager. However, setting up each component individually can be a time-consuming and laborious process.
Especially when it comes to setting up a new cluster or restoring the old one.
The solution
The solution is to use a git-ops approach to install all components based on declarative configurations stored in git.
A project that leverages this approach is Flux.
Some project statements
Flux and Flagger deploy apps with canaries, feature flags, and A/B rollouts. Flux can also manage any Kubernetes…
