Kubernetes Secrets and ConfigMaps #23

Closed skriesch closed 2 years ago

skriesch commented 3 years ago

It is recommended to separate handling of confidential data outside of the general code. The same counts inside of Kubernetes with all different yaml files. Kubernetes Secrets provide the possibility to encrypt data with base64 and make it available as environment variables. ConfigMaps can be used equal to that for non-confidential data. In this presentation I will tell how to generate Kubernetes Secrets and ConfigMaps with different tools, and how to integrate it afterwards in helm charts or a pod.yaml.

That is allowed to become the first Post-Covid talk. :-)
