we're currently doing the helm install routine, but at some point may have to move to the apply routine if we figure out a non-lovely way to deal with gitops for automated deploys and build promotion. So far though it's helpful for some conditional checks to do things like run a helm diff and whatnot to know if we need to run pre-deploy checks on preprod environments when doing hourly automated deploys, and use their hooks mechanism to annotate observability data with deploy times.

I’ve been using microk8s for local stuff. Tilt is generally good and you can ask tilt to use whatever local cluster to work with afaict.

we use helm charts, but literally just call the 'helm upgrade --install' command with a bunch of files for each service and static build artifacts templated in from a manifest in S3, stick that in a CircleCI scheduled task, and use alerting on pre-prod environments' SLOs to know whether to auto-deploy to prod with ways to do manual validation of the checks fail (eg. pre-prod being down shouldn't preclude from force-deploying a fix to prod to restore service there first). Update the manifest to a previous version and re-run the job and your rollback is out in minutes. it has been needs suiting so far, and I'm glad we managed to keep full automation rather than having to do some annoying gitops.

upgrading k8s itself and the cluster and auditing all the poo poo, now that's garbage.

we’re on EKS and it’s probably nicer than custom chef stuff but there’s a tremendous amount of complexity to properly dealing with all the poo poo related to custom nodegroups and orderly shutdown that I wish I had never had to learn.

carry on then posted:i'm sorry, this terminology is giving me terrible flashbacks to websphere nd stuff it’s essentially just “bring your own ASG” in EKS, so you can do some custom poo poo to your hosts before handing them to the EKS cluster.
