Multi-cluster Kubernetes Deployment¶

Multi-cluster Kubernetes deployment involves managing and orchestrating containerized applications across multiple distinct Kubernetes clusters, which may be distributed across different environments, such as local development, on-premises infrastructure, and various cloud providers.^[400-devops-08-infrastructure-as-code-pulumi.md]

Deployment Environments¶

Deployments can target a wide variety of infrastructure types. These include local environments such as Minikube, custom on-premises clusters, and managed cloud services from major providers, including Google (GKE), Azure (AKS), and Amazon (EKS).^[400-devops-08-infrastructure-as-code-pulumi.md]

Automation and Orchestration¶

Tools like Pulumi facilitate these deployments by offering support for provisioning and managing resources across these diverse environments.^[400-devops-08-infrastructure-as-code-pulumi.md] Using modern Infrastructure as Code (IaC) platforms, engineers can define multi-cluster configurations using standard programming languages (such as JavaScript or Java) instead of traditional YAML, streamlining the management of complex, distributed Kubernetes infrastructures.^[400-devops-08-infrastructure-as-code-pulumi.md]
