Fleetman Kubernetes

Completed 2024 • Kubernetes Microservices Architecture with Kustomize

Fleetman Kubernetes packages the Fleetman fleet-tracking microservices into a deployable Kubernetes stack. It uses Kustomize to orchestrate services (webapp, API gateway, ActiveMQ queue, position tracker, position simulator, MongoDB), ConfigMaps for Nginx and profile configuration, PersistentVolumeClaims for storage, and ClusterIP/LoadBalancer services for exposure. A KIND-based demo workflow is provided for local clusters with scaling/autoscaling commands.
