We're migrating our app's deployments from using VMs to Kubernetes and as my knowledge of Kubernetes is very limited, I'm lost how I could set up deployment for multiple clients. Right now we have a separate VM for each client but how to separate the clients in Kubernetes in a way that will be cost and resource efficient and easy to manage?
I managed to create dev and staging environments using namespaces and this is working great.
To update dev and staging deployment I just use kubectl apply -f <file> --namespace staging
.
Now I need to deploy app to production for several clients (50+). They should be completely separate from each other (using separate environment variables and secrets) while code should be the same. And I don't know what is the best way to achieve that.
Could you please hint me what is the right way for that in Kubernetes?
