Kubernetes Deployment

Overview

Kubernetes provides container orchestration for automated deployment, scaling, and management. This skill should be invoked when deploying containerized applications, managing microservices, or implementing auto-scaling.

Core Principles

• Declarative: Define desired state in manifests
• Self-Healing: Kubernetes maintains desired state
• Scaling: Horizontal pod autoscaling
• Service Networking: Services enable pod communication

Preparation Checklist

• Containerize application with Dockerfile
• Push image to registry
• Design Kubernetes manifests
• Plan resource requirements
