You need to get a small web application up and running, without much fuss and complexity? Well, lucky you, if there is a dedicated k8s cluster already running within the company, whose resources you can use. But what are the next steps from a developer perspective? How to get up and running, how to manage secrets, ensure logs can be accessed, making sure your application scales, handles rollouts and shares state properly?
