Kubernetes ConfigMaps Tutorial | Inject Environment Variables & Config Files

In this video, I walks you through Kubernetes ConfigMaps, one of the most practical ways to manage configuration in kubernetes clusters.

Instead of hardcoding configuration into your container images, ConfigMaps allow you to inject environment variables or mount configuration files at runtime, making your applications more flexible, maintainable, and cloud-native.

By the end of this tutorial, you will learn how to:
Create ConfigMaps using literals
Use ConfigMaps in pod manifest files
Inject ConfigMaps as volumes into your pods
Update ConfigMaps without rebuilding containers
Apply ConfigMaps in real-world scenarios like Nginx or Apache
