🎥 Deploying Java & PostgreSQL on Kubernetes using JKube | Step-by-Step Guide
In this video, I walk you through how to deploy a Java application and PostgreSQL database on Kubernetes using JKube – a powerful Maven plugin that simplifies Kubernetes deployments for Java developers. 🚀
📦 What You’ll Learn:
Setting up a Java application (Spring Boot or any Java app)
Configuring PostgreSQL as a database service on Kubernetes
Using JKube Maven Plugin to containerize and deploy Java apps
Writing application.properties or yaml for DB connection
Creating Kubernetes manifests (Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps)
Running everything on a local cluster (e.g., Minikube or kind)
🛠 Tools & Tech Used:
Java / Spring Boot ☕
PostgreSQL 🐘
Kubernetes ☸️
JKube Maven Plugin 🧩
Minikube or kind (optional for local K8s)
💡 Why JKube?
JKube abstracts the boilerplate Kubernetes YAMLs and integrates smoothly into your Maven workflow, making it easy to go from code → container → K8s with minimal effort.
