I could give you a lengthy comparison between Helm and OpenShift templates. I won't do that. The reason is simple. Helm is the de-facto standard for installing applications. It's the most widely used, and its adoption is going through the roof. Among the similar tools, it has the biggest community, it has the most applications available, and it is becoming adopted by more software vendors than any other solution. The exception is RedHat. They created OpenShift templates long before Helm came into being. Helm borrowed many of its concepts, improved them, and added a few additional features. When we add to that the fact that OpenShift templates work only on OpenShift, the decision which one to use is pretty straightforward. Helm wins, unless you chose OpenShift as your Kubernetes flavor. In that case, the choice is harder to make. On the one...

Overview of this book
Building on The DevOps 2.3 Toolkit: Kubernetes, Viktor Farcic brings his latest exploration of the Docker technology as he records his journey to continuously deploying applications with Jenkins into a Kubernetes cluster.
The DevOps 2.4 Toolkit: Continuously Deploying Applications with Jenkins to a Kubernetes Cluster is the latest book in Viktor Farcic’s series that helps you build a full DevOps Toolkit. This book guides readers through the process of building, testing, and deploying applications through fully automated pipelines.
Within this book, Viktor will cover a wide-range of emerging topics, including an exploration of continuous delivery and deployment in Kubernetes using Jenkins. It also shows readers how to perform continuous integration inside these clusters, and discusses the distribution of Kubernetes applications, as well as installing and setting up Jenkins.
