Helm has emerged as a popular tool for distributing and using applications on Kubernetes. The kubernetes/charts repo has almost 150 different packages today! Helm works by bundling Kubernetes resources together into an easy to use package and allows you to specify dependencies on other packages, enabling deployment of services like databases alongside your application. But what if you wanted to use a managed database from a cloud provider, instead of running it in your cluster? What if it was as simple as selecting it from a catalog? The service-catalog project is being built to bring this capability to the Kubernetes eco-system using the Open Service Broker API. In this talk, Jeremy will introduce service-catalog and the new resources it brings to Kubernetes. He will also demo how you can use Helm to deliver an application configured to use services provided by the service catalog.
