KubeLinter with Michael Foster

Michael talks about KubeLinter: an open-source tool to create production-ready Kubernetes YAMLs

If you’ve spent time deploying Kubernetes applications, you know it can be pretty arduous to configure them -- there are so many different objects, so many knobs and dials, so many cross-references to keep track of. Further, in most cases, defaults are geared towards making it easy for users to get their apps up-and-running quickly, and not for secure, production-ready configurations. In this talk, I will introduce KubeLinter, an open-source tool, that solves these problems by linting Kubernetes YAML files and Helm charts to ensure they follow best practices. I will do a hands-on demo of the tool, showing its use on a developer laptop as well as in a CI system.
