Orchestrating Telstar with Kubernetes

Using Kubernetes

Although not officially supported, Telstar can be managed by Kubernetes if required and the following configuration files present an example of how this could be achieved using either Node ports or a cloud provider's Load Balancer.

Telstar Namspace

   {
     "apiVersion": "v1",
     "kind": "Namespace",
     "metadata": {
       "name": "telstar",
       "labels": {
         "name": "telstar"
       }
     }
   }
