Optimizing Your Kubernetes Resources with Helm

On-Demand FinOps Training

Automated K8s Cost Management with Helm

If you’re part of a team managing a containerized environment using an orchestration technology like Kubernetes (K8s), then you know the pains of having to write and maintain YAML manifests: Duplicated values, hardcoded transient variables—even when app developers are involved with managing the environment, the situation is a nightmare.

Helm

Helm to the rescue! But, what about when developers either forget to include appropriate resource specifications or they request unnecessary resources for their applications? We all know where that leads: low infrastructure utilization, more nodes, and out-of-control costs—and more work for you.

Watch this training and learn how Helm can be used to automatically configure the optimal resource specification for each container, whenever an application is installed or upgraded. The demo will reveal how cost and time savings can be gained through more precise, automated configuration of container resources.
