Building Helm Charts From the Ground Up: An Introduction to Kubernetes [I] - Amy Chen, Heptio

[@ansilh]

Helm starts at 12:00

[@anibaldk]

I owe you 12 minutes.

[@smrafi7399]

Thanks for saving 12 minutes and also bandwidth :-)

[@tarekbenguiza3576]

Thank you I needed this lol

[@breibreii]

thanks, man

[@nonzzo]

Thank you!

[@marcusnielsen2009]

Wow, really great talk! Kubernetes and Helm doesn't feel like this huge mountain to climb now, but more of a relaxing zip line.

[@JeongOhn]

Thank you Amy, I was looking for a simple version of 'what is Helm and why use it?', and this pretty much gave me an idea.

[@dmitriysolodukha9646]

She is a great speaker! Clear, quickly and interesting :) Love it

[@eyalpery8470]

She is amazing! Baby computer inside a computer, she sure knows how to teach stuff. Thanks for the explanation of Helm, helped a lot understanding this ! One last thing...filled-alpaca !

[@manjeetswt]

seriously , this girl makes me love helm .. thank you

[@kentkits]

Very crisp and short intro. Surely will help newbies! Thanks Amy

[@llluuuiiisssooo]

Great job. As a k8s newbie I found this very helpful, especially understanding helm in a nutshell. Constructive feedback: I’m watching this 2 years late, so I’m sure you’ve prob done this talk many times over. I wanted to provide a piece of constructive feedback anyways: telling the story in reverse order would’ve been better for a beginners audience (like me). Show how to do every step with kubectl first so that I understand everything Involved, and then show me the helm way. This way everything clicks. In any way, this was a fantastic talk. great job and thank you!!

[@yeheekim]

This was very helpful. It's been a month and a half into Docker, K8s, and Helms and this is by far the most helpful demo I found. Thanks!

[@backpackernz]

Very good explanation, much better than many lengthy tutorials.

[@debakarr]

Crazy things are how supportive the audiences are.

[@kevinlesterbaculao7530]

I am doing a code review of my Sr. colleague who is going to take off the plane soon. This videos helped me a lot in reviewing his code before he's going to say bye bye. great great great!!!! woaahhh. Thanks a lot.

[@rishacha]

Learning Helm in 2018 from this video. Very helpful for newbies and I like her enthusiasm...

[@takurtime]

Great demo, I didn't even saw the time passing, I work in the area, but I often find myself getting lost with all these technical stuff without an example, this demo was simple, but clarifying!!!

[@timjohnson8820]

nice demo. the graphics were really helpful and the demo of helm compared to using kubectl was very helpful. I was happy to see she got the kubectl exec command wrong because it make me feel good I am not the only one who struggles with these commands while learning this technology

[@liyuanma498]

Very clear video for the Kub introduction

[@TheFrediee]

very good presentations for beginners in short

[@jasonguo7596]

Thanks for the presentation. The talk is easy to follow!

[@jesssinues415]

@28:50 Other than what @iphooi said, you can actually put together all those yaml files into one and just separate them with a double dash. Kubectl is smart enough to distinguish them. What I'm really happy about helm is that you can just create templates and manipulate values via one centralized values.yaml file! This way, integrating it in your CI/CD pipelines is way easier!

[@alainpannetier2543]

Yeah. So instead of having 10 small yaml you can fix one by one, you have one big one with the same total amount of configuration mistakes but you haven't got a clue, which part is wrong. Big progress.

[@manasbudam7192]

Helpful for absolute beginners

[@samsushah]

Very nice Amy! Very educational!

[@ButchHammer]

Nice intro, just what I needed ! Thank you

[@taaruna1639]

Wonderful presentation. Thanks.

[@an859]

Very nice presentation, it helps me a lot to understand kubernetes and helm.

[@barronanderson7867]

Good video, thanks! The 'all you gotta do is...' part of the video had some hiccups - It goes to show Kubernetes and related tools are difficult in general. Hiccups occurred even with notes from a trial run of steps. The video does a nice job illustrating the benefits of Helm compared to standard kubectl, so that was great.

[@hassanhashemi6478]

Thanks Amy, Great presentation.

[@idanshviro8962]

Thank you for your time, great talk!

[@quangvo4563]

Very helpful. Thank you Amy

[@dmoka]

Awesome and informative presentation, thanks Amy!

[@CarloL525]

Great approach to teaching Helm (and Kubernetes in General). Thanks!

[@iphooi]

28:10 You don't need to deploy "on its on". kubectl also capable to apply multiple yaml files also recursively. `kubectl apply -R -f .`

[@jcvicelli]

yeah, kind of, why another tool and a manifest if a kubectl can do it

[@juanjoseredondo759]

@@jcvicelliYou are right, but the added value of helm is how it manages upgrades and rollbacks, apart from the reduced complexity if you integrate your k8s cluster with a pipeline

[@skybontal139]

a man must use kubectl in production

[@shahirahmed.]

very clear and helpful !!👍🏼

[@ankitlakum1]

Interesting also, thanks 😊

[@vernetto]

this presentation is perfect, I wonder what motivated all those downvotes, maybe they were too inexperienced to follow it. you must have some understanding of kubernetes to follow it.

[@RandomShowerThoughts]

great video

[@ernestoballon]

Great talk

[@sparshneel123]

Really Good Talk

[@Technologynorth]

Really nice introduction into using Helm. Nice one Amy

[@DontTakeCrack]

thanks, great and short explanation for both kubernetes + helm.

[@eschrader]

Thank you for the video, it was helpful for when I use the Azure DevOps with Node.JS Express and AKS. The OOTB helm commands are "magic" and this helped understand how the Charts and template files are related. I do wish someone would give this exact overview but with Azure DevOps and Node.JS Express with AKS.

[@Daidera91]

gifted speaker

[@adamhughes9938]

Really helpful thanks

[@manunibal]

Very clear, thanks

[@richardwang3438]

Where is the "building helm chart from ground up" part?

[@gabbarsingh1984]

Nice presentation ;-)

[@djason_music]

Great explanations, Amy!

[@robertdeheer1307]

I love it. Shit just goes wrong when you put it in production

[@TocnaelStarcraft]

informative demos

[@alainpannetier2543]

Baby container. Riiiight! Sorry if I prefer the "Linux thread" explanation.

[@sreeprakashneelakantan5051]

Very good understanding and explanation, way to go 👌

[@nikhilsidhaye1347]

kubectl create -fR part3-kubectl or kubectl apply -fR part3-kubectl will deploy all in one command. Very basic one.

[@raghunathmahakud4270]

Is it possible to stop helm upgrade or how to do immutable config map using helm with kubernates v1.13

[@gaatutube]

Wished the demo screen occupied a larger portion of the overall screen. But good presentation overall.

[@rodislavmoldovanalternativ4474]

Please consider that developers are interested on how you deploy things, since the software should be capable to be deployed in certain ways as well :)

[@codemongod]

Wow, great explanation

[@googleuser2036]

Great demo Amy!!

[@daksh6752]

5:32 is apt available in alpine? I thought alpine used apk

[@karimipour]

Good demo.

[@mikedqin]

The folder is templates, instead of manifests. How did Amy prepare her presentation?

[@johndurrett3573]

Recall that she was hired like 4 days before the presentation...Try on-boarding to your first company fresh from collage and prepare for demo in front of large audience. The stress levels most people would go thru is astronomical. She handled it admirably. I would not fault someone under that kind of duress for minor issues.

[@GauravKhare89]

Hi, Can anyone pls explain how to run helm commands going to a remote Kubernetes cluster, may be aws eks

[@martinholy6336]

Amy, you don't have to write down the "clear" command again and again, just hit the shortcut control+L.

[@JeongOhn]

This is a bigger find then Helm. Thanx!

[@user-robinhuang]

thanks，Amy

[@ravikumar-xs7et]

Hi Amy, may I know the git location , where you have all these yaml files ?

[@togo7022]

can someone explain what happen at 25:06 and 25:56? did the first command fail because the container within the pod was not ready yet? (despite the pod having the 'running' status). that's my speculation but i'm new to k8s

[@timjohnson8820]

I think the command failed because she type kubectl exec pod nginx... the word pod is not needed

[@subashbhandari2787]

You are right. The container she used in the first command was actually terminating. By the time she executed that command, the pod was not active. Later, she used another pod which was active

[@sauravbhagat4737]

What IP did she type in the browser?

[@thestigify]

Is there like a GitHub link to the helm charts?

[@stlophen]

github.com/helm/helm

[@plokko1]

- "Everything is ephemeral, everythings die, things are complicated" - Wow, are you a K8s expert? - No, it's just my depression

[@ichodnic]

Where is part 2???

[@johndurrett3573]

I believe is was the other folder/deployments she was referring too in hindsight. i thought it meant another recording..but her folders were for different parts.

[@mikewy1203]

Neat introduction of helm. But it seems that she mixed up the concept of ingress resource and ingress controller.

[@johndurrett3573]

Why not post a clarification then?

[@mikewy1203]

John Durrett 18:23 She calls the yaml file as an ingress controller, while actually it is an ingress resource, which describes the routing rule of this ingress. Ingress controller is the nginx deployment and service that she showed before, which would provide ingress once this ingress resource is applied.

[@Dxeus]

it was a session of bragging about applying some ready-made charts with the helm. "Ooo .. helm apply .. yes lets double check it now. "

[@pengdu7751]

she likes saying "right" a lot. Great clear video nontheless! thanks!

[@markramotowski50]

Dammit, I hadn't noticed it until you said it! Now I can't un-notice it :(

[@PUBG-go4pe]

how about "like" ?

[@mgazza2]

Like right!?

[@thestigify]

right

[@fraternitas5117]

too bad a woman was used here to serve as a distraction from the talk

[@villiano1]

"Like, like, ..., like, right? Like ... right?" Right.

[@cajone7591]

Degree educated and punctuates every sentence with the word 'like', how many times does she say like in the first 45 secs of this video, could not listen to any more than 45 secs, sorry :(

[@atulmy]

Cut people some slack. You might shit your pants when you are standing up there and giving a talk.

[@LukePighetti]

Too bad you didn't finish the talk, she did an incredible job.

[@giwahdavalos4699]

it's really worth seeing it completely

[@timjohnson8820]

I like that she talks like a normal person not a nerd like you

[@scottmacgregor9023]

She is nervous, practicing public speaking and listening to yourself is how you eliminate “um, right, and like”. Good job on stage getting through basic material.

[@TheXiguazhi]

very good video.
