An Introduction to Developing Microservices on Kubernetes (in Pipedrive) | by Ragnar Paide | Pipedrive Engineering | Feb, 2021 |...

admin 3 weeks ago in

To better understand the main structure of Pipedrive, you need to know that it is built upon a microservice architecture. There are hundreds of different microservices deployed on clusters of servers within Pipedrive. Each one of these performs very concrete tasks and offer services to other microservices. This creates an integrated network of small and easily manageable services that together form the Pipedrive application. These…

Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration platform that automates the deployment, management, and scaling of applications. Kubernetes was first developed by engineers at Google before being open-sourced in 2014. Many larger companies are now adopting Kubernetes as their container orchestration option. I have been using Kubernetes for a while, and I have compiled a list of commands that I frequently use. I had created a…
