• Ansible scripts to automate the deployment of helm charts for:

1. Monitoring stack
2. Load Balancer (MetalLB)
3. Ingress

Results

• Multi-Node high availability Production-ready environment.
• Minimal cost solution for the testing environment by replicating the Production environment on Bare Metal.
• CI/CD setup on local via Ansible script provides a pipeline to deploy complete architecture in one click.
• Load Balancing using MetalLB and Nginx on local to replicate AWS ELB.
