Overview
This conference talk explores the challenges of deploying Spring Boot applications to Kubernetes using Helm charts and offers a practical solution for developers. Learn how to bridge the communication gap between Spring Boot configuration and Helm charts through a streamlined approach. The presentation quickly reviews the conventional Google-recommended Helm setup and explains its limitations for dedicated Spring Boot developers. Through code demonstrations (no slides), discover a method that allows you to directly copy your Spring Boot configuration (application*.yaml) into Helm configuration for Kubernetes deployment. The talk covers Spring Boot configuration fundamentals including Spring Profiles, identifies problems with traditional deployment approaches, and presents a unified solution that creates common ground between Spring Boot and Kubernetes environments.
