Manage and Deploy Kubernetes Applications with Helm
If you’re new to Kubernetes and looking for a way to manage your Kubernetes applications, then you’re in for a treat. Kubernetes Helm is the package manager for Kubernetes that allows you to define, install and upgrade complex Kubernetes applications.
In this tutorial, you will learn how to manage and deploy Kubernetes applications with Helm by running commands.

50+ Useful Kubernetes Tools for 2020 - Part 2
Introduction
Last year, we provided a list of Kubernetes tools that proved so popular we have decided to curate another list of some useful additions for working with the platform—among which are many tools that we personally use here at Caylent. Check out the original tools list here in case you missed it.
According to a recent survey done by Stackrox, the dominance Kubernetes enjoys in the market continues to be reinforced, with 86% of respondents using it for container orchestration.
And as you can see below, more and more companies are jumping into containerization for their apps. If you’re among them, here are some tools to aid you going forward as Kubernetes continues its rapid growth.

Introduction to Helm - Package Manager for Kubernetes
**Introduction to Kubernetes and Helm **
Kubernetes is one of the best platforms to deploy and manage containerized applications. But deploying such containerized applications to Kubernetes can be challenging. You have to write a detailed YAML file to deploy resources like pods, deployments, and services on Kubernetes that’s where Helm comes into the play. Helm is a package manager for Kubernetes; it’s the yum and apt of Kubernetes. It allows us to deploy resources to Kubernetes quickly. It deploys charts which are the packages of application. Helm is also an official Kubernetes project in the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) under the category of incubating projects.
Why we need Helm?
Helm makes deployments so easy in Kubernetes, all you need to add helm charts on your Kubernetes cluster. All the Helm charts are stored in Helm repository; you can search the required application chart on Helm registry and add them to your Kubernetes cluster with ease. For example, if you want to deploy a WordPress app on your Kubernetes, you have to create Yaml manifest files for deployment and service for both app and database, which can be quite complicated. Still, by using Helm you can deploy WordPress in a few minutes on your Kube cluster. Also if you want to deploy 50 microservices on Kubernetes using manifest files it consumes a whole lot of time and also there is an exorbitant probability of errors. Still, in case of Helm, you have to remember the name of required charts, and you can deploy these as quick as Flash.
How to install Helm?
The process of installing Helm is effortless, you can install it using the binaries, or you can use package managers.
From homebrew on macOS:
brew install Helm
From Chocolatey on windows:
choco install Kubernetes-helm
From installer script:
Helm now comes with an installer script, you can fetch this script to your system, and it automatically installs the latest version of Helm in your system.
$ curl -fsSL -o get_helm.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/helm/helm/master/scripts/get-helm-3
$ chmod 700 get_helm.sh
$ ./get_helm.sh

Deploying LOGIQ on K3s using a Helm Chart
We’re huge fans of Helm Charts and the simplicity they bring to complex application deployments on Kubernetes and MicroK8s. We showed you how you could use Helm Charts to deploy LOGIQ on MicroK8s in a previous post. As a follow-up to that article, we’d like to show you how Helm Charts are equally helpful in deploying complex applications on other certified Kubernetes distributions such as K3s. In this article, you’ll learn how we use Helm Charts to deploy the LOGIQ observability platform on K3s. If you’ve never used K3s or Helm Charts before, you can use this article to get acquainted with both.
What is K3s?
K3s is a highly available, lightweight, and fully compliant Kubernetes distribution. K3s is packaged as a single binary, thereby reducing dependencies and minimizing installation, run, and auto-update steps that you’d typically have to take while managing a production Kubernetes cluster. As K3s is lightweight, you can run a cluster on machines with as little as 512 MB RAM and upwards.
K3s comes bundled with a local storage provider, a service load balancer, a Helm controller, and the Traefik ingress controller. A single binary and process encapsulate the operation of all Kubernetes control plane components, allowing K3s to automate and manage complex cluster operations like distributing certificates.

How to migrate helm v2 to helm v3
This article will guide you about how to migrate helm v2 to helm v3 along with currently running resources in the environment.
In my previous article we have seen how to install helm version 2. Now in this article we are going to migrate currently running helm v2 configuration and its running resources to helm v3. To perform migration of helm v2 to helm v3 we are going to install plugin called 2to3 in the helm3.
