-From a single server MVP to scale – easy with Portainer
-We assume you already have you web-app running within a container
-Select your orchestration (what is best practice, what are reasons, what are limits ???)
+Hello, Adolfo from Portainer here
 
-- Kubernetes
-- Docker Swarm
+We have prepared a set of comparison videos of Portainer vs 4 different Kubernetes management tools:
 
-10-100 server : Docker Swarm
-50-200 server: microk8s (easy as docker swarm, but prepare for further growth ???)
-100-100.000: kubernetes
-Setup infrastructure (swarm or microk8s)
-Launch servers (virtual or bare metal)
-Create master
-Join further nodes
-Launch Portainer
-…
-Launch reverse proxy via Portainer
-The reverse proxy will automatically load balance all incoming requests to the web-app containers
-The proxy will hot reload when containers change, not interrupt ongoing and long-running requests (?)
-The proxy can automatically forward to services based on sub-domains and/or paths via labels (?)
-Launch services (web-app and others)
-Launch you services with Portainer, set labels for sub-domain and/or path
-Example: www (wordpress), api (nodejs) (?)
-Database: only one instance per server on dedicated servers
-Scale up
-Check metrics
-Easily scale services up and down, add more servers
-7. b. Manage credentials, pass them to the web-app so it can connect to the database.
+Kubernetes Dashboard
+Lens
+CrossPlane
+Rancher UI
+
+
+the idea is to basically show the steps required to deploy an application on each of the tools vs Portainer and I am going to use a basic implementation of the redis database.
+
+
+
+Here I start with Portainer vs Kubernetes Dashboard with a redis server deployment. In both cases I use microk8s and the process starts with the search for the proper container image in both cases.
+
+In Portainer I used the Applications menu option and deployed redis with ,
