-====== Step 6 - Application Configuration ======
-// See [[https://spot.io/resources/kubernetes-autoscaling/5-kubernetes-deployment-strategies-roll-out-like-the-pros/]] //
-In this step we look at deploying different application images
-  * doritoes/k8s-php-demo-app:blue
-  * doritoes/k8s-php-demo-app:green
-  * doritoes/k8s-php-demo-app:orange
-Strategies supported by Kubernetes out of the box:
-  * rolling deployment (default) - replaces pods running the older version with the new version one-by-one
-  * recreate deployment - terminates all pods and replaces them with the new version
-Strategies that requires customization or specialized tools:
-  * ramped slow rollout
-  * best-effort controlled rollout
-  * blue/green deployment
-  * canary deployment
-  * shadow deployment
-  * A/B testing
-====== Rolling Deployment ======
-===== Open a Second Session to Monitor the Process =====
-Open a second terminal or ssh session and run the watch command
-<code>watch -d -n 1 'kubectl get pods,deploy'</code>
-You will watch the status of your deployment here.
-===== Update the Image in k8s-deployment-web.yml =====
-Update ''k8s-deployment-web.yml'' to use the new image tag
-<code>image: doritoes/k8s-php-demo-app:green</code>
-Here is the entire modified file:
-<file yaml k8s-deployment-web.yml>
-apiVersion: apps/v1
-kind: Deployment
-metadata:
-  name: web-deployment
-spec:
-  replicas: 2
-  selector:
-    matchLabels:
-      app: web
-  template:
-    metadata:
-      labels:
-        app: web
-    spec:
-      nodeSelector:
-        my-role: worker # restrict scheduling to the nodes with the label my-role: worker
-      containers:
-      - name: web
-        image: doritoes/k8s-php-demo-app:green
-        ports:
-        - containerPort: 8080
-        livenessProbe:
-          httpGet:
-            path: /liveness.php
-            port: 8080
-          initialDelaySeconds: 30
-          periodSeconds: 10
-        readinessProbe: # Add the readinessProbe section
-          httpGet:
-            path: /readiness.php
-            port: 8080
-          initialDelaySeconds: 5
-          periodSeconds: 5
-</file>
-===== Kick Off the Update =====
-This process will perform a one-by-one replacement. Health checks (liveness and readiness) ensure new pods are healthy before taking old ones offline.
-Start the update
-<code>kubectl apply -f k8s-deployment-web.yml</code>
-Observe the rollout
-<code>kubectl rollout status deployment/web-deployment</code>
-Watch the status in the other session. What can you see, and what useful information is missing?
-Examine the deployment and see which image is running:
-<code>kubectl describe deployment/web-deployment</code>
-Here is a way to get the images running on all pods:
-<code>
-kubectl get pods --all-namespaces -o jsonpath='{range .items[*]}{"\n"}{.metadata.name}{":\t"}{range .spec.containers[*]}{.image}{", "}{end}{end}' |\
-sort
-</code>
-===== Troubleshooting =====
-If the rollout is stalled, use these commands to investigate potential issues:
-<code>
-kubectl describe deployment web-deployment
-kubectl get pods
-kubectl logs <pod-name>
-</code>
-===== Rollback =====
-Roll back the update using
-<code>
-kubectl rollout undo deployment/web-deployment
-</code>
-Observe the rollback
-<code>kubectl rollout status deployment/web-deployment</code>
-Watch the status in the other session.
-===== Improvements =====
-You can customize the rolling deployment behavior within your Deployment spec with the ''maxSurge'' and ''maxUnavailable'' properties.
-For example here is adding the ability to add up to 25% of the desired number of pods and ensuring you never drop before the desired number of pods.
-<code yaml>
-spec:
-  replicas: 2
-  strategy:
-    type: RollingUpdate
-    rollingUpdate:
-      maxSurge: 25%  # Can exceed the desired number of pods
-      maxUnavailable: 0  # No downtime during the update
-  # ... rest of your deployment specification ...
- </code>
