Go To URL

Simple web application to shorten URLs. The application can store its data in Redis and in memory (for testing purposes only).

The purpose is learning to deploy a k8s cluster along with modern tools.

See Makefile for deploy options

K8S Plan (unordered)

• deploying single node Redis as a StatefulSet
• configure application Deployment
• configure PVC to persist Redis oplog and backups
• configure Redis Auth with Secrets
• deploy persistent ELK and elastic/filebeat as DaemonSet
• deploy Prometheus with Grafana to monitor metrics
• deploy Nginx to serve frontend app
• deploy Jaeger (all-in-one with direct node-to-collector http because I'm lazy)
• integrate a CNI solution e.g. Calico/Weave
• convert manifests to Helm charts
• simple deploy scripts
• Grafana RED board

Secondary

• configure Filebeat to parse logrus format and log levels correctly
• setup custom metrics in Prometheus
• deploy Redis in Cluster mode (shards)

Feel free to use this repo in any way you need to.
