- 3. WHERE WE STARTED • Monolithic application creates complexity, lack of flexibility and does not allow for easy integration of third party tools or solutions • Plenty of customizations that makes ongoing support costly and complex • Older technologies that increase the ongoing costs • Vanishing know-how creates risk for future plans and maintenance • High costs of development prevent continuous improvements WHERE WE’RE GOING • Micro-services architecture provides flexibility to scope and scale • New features or modules can be introduced by the customer themselves • Partner management can bring increasing benefits by onboarding third party solutions • New features can be added with higher efficiency and in turn lower costs, allowing for shorter time to market • However, microservices come with increased complexity in managing all resources. The move to microservices makes our life easier 3

- 5. What we have today is a different kind of complexity 4 Delivery bundle 2021.6.28.5 • Many modules • Many APIs • Heterogenious versions • Heterogenious customer deployments OUR NEW CHALLENGES Release bundle 3.23.0 Extras Config 1.2.0 Release notes 3.23.0 Module A 2.3.0 Module B 1.37.0 Module C 2.10.3 Module D 3.0.2 API 1.0.5 API 2.3.0 API 1.27.5 API 1.1.2 API 1.4.0 Delivery bundle has a version that is independent of the Release bundle A Release Bundle contains one or many modules A Module contains zero or APIs
- 6. What is is What it does You can administrate applications and manage APIs via Kubernetes Browser 5 K8S Browser automatically captures all apps and APIs running on Kubernetes and presents comprehensive details in one dashboard. It allows access to relevant information on all artifacts installed on Kubernetes. • All K8S administration is centralized, increasing management efficiency and facilitation of information flow • Access to Kubernetes cluster is available, so there’s no longer need to refer to the K8S admin to access information • Application support is improved – information on all the applications with versioning are available from a single access point • Logs from all applications are accessible in the same location and the same format, allowing easy access to and quicker understanding of information (compared to elastic search)
- 8. Kubernetes Browser brings benefits through its features 7 Display • All the deployments • Their version by using the actuator endpoint • The version of the image if there is no actuator endpoint • The restart of the application, which may be a source of wrong configuration • State of the app ready/down Applications Display information about helm installation by providing a simple tutorial Installation Display • A list of all environments resp. Namespaces • URLs of the certain environment by using the ingress resources • URLs of the certain environment by using the API gateway resources Environments • Display all configMaps which are used as environment variables • Search resp. filter the configMaps ConfigMaps • Display all secrets which are used as environment variables • Search resp. filter the secrets Secrets Display • Build Info of an application • Actuator endpoints of an application including their urls • API list including the swagger definition • Labels applied to the deployments resp. pods Application • Display the log file of a container • Display loggers by using the actuator endpoints • Switch the logging level by using actuator endpoints Logging Display all the settings coming from the env endpoint Settings Display • Nodes names of the application • Type of the node • If the node is schedulable • CPU, memory, OS and version of the kubelet Nodes Export the log files including the environment details Export
- 9. Kubernetes Browser is already making a difference 8 Process simplification and promotion of transparency via access to information for non-admin users Operational costs are reduced by reducing the time needed to access and analyze information Facilitation of information exchange with technology vendors as extraction of details is simplified Product management has an overview of applications that are finished
