Hi there,
I'm an experienced developer well-versed in containerization and Kubernetes. I'm confident I can help you resolve the deployment and service configuration issues in your GitLab application. My approach includes:
1. Analyzing the current setup: I will thoroughly examine your existing Docker Compose configuration and identify any discrepancies causing the problem.
2. Kubernetes deployment: I will create a Kubernetes deployment manifest file, ensuring both the frontend and backend containers are part of the same pod.
3. Kubernetes service: I will set up a Kubernetes Service resource for the backend container, providing a stable network endpoint for communication.
4. Configuration updates: I will modify your backend container's configuration to use the service name instead of 'localhost', enabling seamless communication with the frontend.
5. Memcached storage: If needed, I'll recommend using an external memcached service or a dedicated container to ensure data persistence and availability.
6. Testing and verification: I'll thoroughly test the deployment to ensure proper communication between the containers and successful rate limiting using Flask-Limiter.
I'm excited to help you overcome these challenges and ensure your application runs smoothly on Kubernetes. I'm confident in my skills and expertise, and I'm committed to delivering high-quality results within the specified timeframe.
I'm looking forward to working with you and helping you.
Best regards,
Karan
