In the previous ConfD application note "ConfD on Docker", we described how you can run the ConfD daemon inside a Docker container. This application note goes the next step and describes one way that you can run the ConfD daemon and ConfD applications using Docker containers and the Kubernetes container orchestrator.
You will learn several steps necessary to run ConfD inside Kubernetes – including how to provide persistent storage to elements of ConfD which you may want to persist through updates that you make to the container. Additionally, the application note describes the Kubernetes setup which we will use, building the Docker images for the ConfD daemon and the ConfD application, and creating and running pods containing these images in Kubernetes.
