In order to run this workshop you need an IBM Cloud account and free IBM Cloud Kubernetes Cluster.

To create a free IBM Cloud Kubernetes Cluster you need a Pay-As-You-Go Account for IBM Cloud. (Account Types)

We will use the following IBM Cloud Services in this hands-on workshop:

  • IBM Cloud Kubernetes Service

  • IBM Cloud Container Registry Service

setup

Tools

We created a Docker image that we use in this workshop. The Docker image contains all needed CLIs such as:

  • git

  • curl

  • IBM Cloud CLI

So, in order to complete the workshop, you need to install Docker Desktop on your local machine. Docker Desktop is available for Mac and Windows and the Docker Engine can be run natively on Linux.

We will use two terminal sessions

  • The first terminal session is for the developer focused exercises 1 and 2.

  • The second terminal session is for exercise 3 deploy the Microservice to Kubernetes, here you will work in a preconfigured Container image.
