Deploying a Flask Application to Kubernetes Using Minikube
I have recently been spending time tinkering with Kubernetes and exploring how container orchestration works in practice. To get hands on experience, I set up a local cluster using Minikube and started experimenting with deploying simple applications. Project Overview The goal of this project is to: Build a simple Flask web application Package it in a container using Docker Deploy it to a Kubernetes cluster Expose the application so it can be accessed from a browser This setup runs locally using Kubernetes through Minikube. Architecture The deployment follows a simple Kubernetes architecture: User → Kubernetes Service → Deployment → Pods → Flask Container Deployment manages the application pods Pods run the containerized Flask application Service exposes the application to the outside network Project Structure The repository contains the following files: kubernetes-flask-app │ ├── app.py ├── requirements.txt ├── Dockerfile ├── deployment.yaml ├── service.yaml └── README.md app.py A sim
