This project demonstrates a production-grade microservices architecture deployed on Kubernetes. The system implements modern cloud-native practices with a focus on scalability, maintainability, and operational efficiency.
The deployment architecture is organized using Kustomize for environment-specific configurations:
- Namespaces: Isolated environments for different components
- Deployments: Stateless application services
- StatefulSets: Database and other stateful services
- Services: Internal and external service definitions
- ConfigMaps: Environment-specific configurations
- Secrets: Secure credential management
- Ingress: External access management
- Storage: Persistent volume management
- Development: Local development environment
- Staging: Pre-production testing environment
- Production: Live environment with production-grade configurations
