A little context/history on the use of the word “Chart” (for anyone curious): I’m brand new to this, but Kubernetes clearly takes its name from the Greek word for “helmsman” or “pilot(in the nautical/maritime/boating sense)” So we’ve got a nautical-maritime-sailing theme going already with k8’s (also consider ‘Pods’ which are groups of whales). “Charts” in the nautical/sailing sense are just maps .. Maybe a bit more specific in that ‘charts’ typically are revised regularly.. So they are regularly revised or re-mapped (when new data became available about new rocks in the ocean or sandbars surfacing) (ocean/nautical) mapping (but fyi we also use the term ‘charts’ in aviation for the same thing: regularly revised / re-mapped .. maps WHICH ARE pretty much what you originally thought! Maps are graphed data .. the data being geographical features. Charts are regular revisions of them. 👌🏼

Hey Raj. Great video and thanks for your time. I have a question, so is there a way we can create our own chart? I mean to ask, if I have my own Container Image for my website. Will I be able to write, what image to be fetched, what kind of service to be created and other things? Apologies if the terminologies I used are incorrect. Pretty new to this.

Hi Raj - I am installing NGINX as you demonstrated in the video. However when I do "kubectl gert svc" then I do not see an external IP (like you have in video). Also the service IP is null which is availale in helm status ( export SERVICE_IP=$(kubectl get svc --namespace default mynginx -o jsonpath='{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[0].ip}'). When I do "kubectl descrobe service" then I do not see the option "Loadbalacer ingress" in output which is present in your case. Rest of the fields are same. To get the URL I am running command "minikube service nginx --url". When I paste this URL in browser i get the NGINX home page. Any idea what is the issue ? Do i need nginx controller also ???? Kindly can you let me know.

[@cloudwithraj]

You need to do this in AWS to get the load balancer ingress. Minikube is just running in local
