Helm is a popular tool for templating and packaging Kubernetes resources, but does it mean it's the best? In this episode of KubeFM, Jacco draws a parallel between Helm and PHP and the similarity in which both tools became a success despite their focus on templating strings. You will also learn: - Helm's flaws and how you can avoid them. - Alternative tools that can (partially) replace Helm. - How to manage third-party packages and templating internal YAML resources. Jacco shared several examples demonstrating duplication in Helm charts and a lack of structured typing.

By default, Kubernetes Secrets are not encrypted; values are merely base64 encoded. And this is fine — at least, this is what Mac argues in this episode of KubeFM. Mac says it all comes down to thinking strategically about security and where the Secrets could be leaked. In this episode, you will learn: - How to define a threat model to inform your security posture and mitigations. - How Kubernetes Secrets offer sufficient guarantees for most common threat models. - If you should use Hashicorp Vault or Kubernetes Secrets (and when not to use auto-unsealing). Mac also covers tips and advice on becoming a security expert.
