Project Description The project involves deploying a Netflix clone web application on a Kubernetes cluster, a popular container orchestration platform that simplifies the deployment and management of containerized applications. The project will require creating Docker images of the web application and its dependencies and deploying them onto the Kubernetes cluster using Kubernetes manifests.

The Kubernetes cluster will provide benefits such as high availability, scalability, and automatic failover of the application. Additionally, the project will utilize Kubernetes tools such as Kubernetes Dashboard and Kubectl to monitor and manage the deployed application. Overall, the project aims to demonstrate the power and benefits of Kubernetes for deploying and managing containerized applications at scale.

Steps

1. Create a Netflix clone(in my case I created an HTML landing page which I have created)

   (GitHub link: https://github.com/sri766/netflix-clone-HTML.git)

2. Build Dockerfile

    # Use a lightweight web server as a base image
    FROM nginx:alpine
   
    # Copy your HTML, CSS, and images folder to the web server's document root
    COPY index.html /usr/share/nginx/html
    COPY style.css /usr/share/nginx/html
    COPY images/ /usr/share/nginx/html/images/
   
    # Expose port 80 (default for HTTP) for web traffic
    EXPOSE 80
   
    # Start the web server when the container runs
    CMD ["nginx", "-g", "daemon off;"]
   

3. Build Docker file

    docker build -t sri766/netflix-clone .
    docker run -d -p 8080:80 sri766/netflix-clone
   

   

   

4. Minikube install- https://minikube.sigs.k8s.io/docs/start/

   

5. Push to Docker hub

    docker push sri766/netflix-clone
   

   

   

6. Create Deployment.yml file

    apiVersion: apps/v1
    kind: Deployment
    metadata:
      name: netflix-clone-deployment
    spec:
      replicas: 1
      selector:
        matchLabels:
          app: netflix-clone
      template:
        metadata:
          labels:
            app: netflix-clone
        spec:
          containers:
            - name: netflix-clone-container
              image: sri766/netflix-clone
              ports:
                - containerPort: 80
   

   

7. Create Service.yml file

    apiVersion: v1
    kind: Service
    metadata:
      name: netflix-clone-service
    spec:
      selector:
        app: netflix-clone
      ports:
        - protocol: TCP
          port: 80
          targetPort: 80
      type: NodePort
   

   

8. apply deployment and service

    kubectl apply -f deployment.yml
    kubectl apply -f service.yml
   

   

   

   you can check services, run kubectl get services

   

9. Access to http://<minikube-ip>:<nodeport>

   you can get ip-address by running Minikube ip

   ans Nodeport is the port after the ":" in the ports listing in services

   

   Done!!💕🚀
