Kubernetes: Configuration as Data: Environment Variables, ConfigMaps, and Secrets

In this video, we will discuss how to abstract applications from their configuration data leveraging Kubernetes “env” variables, ConfigMaps, and secrets. By default, secrets are not encrypted in Kubernetes, we will walk through the complete process to encrypt secrets to make our cluster more secure.
