Kubernetes can be used to deploy and manage an MERN (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js) stack application. Here are some checklist items to consider when using Kubernetes for a MERN stack app:
Containerize the application: Before deploying the application on Kubernetes, you need to containerize each component of the MERN stack. This can be done using Docker. You can create separate Docker images for the Node.js backend, React frontend, and MongoDB database.
Define Kubernetes objects: Once the Docker images are created, you need to define Kubernetes objects to deploy the application. This includes defining a deployment for each component of the MERN stack, as well as a service to expose the backend to the frontend.
Use a Kubernetes ingress controller: If you plan to deploy the MERN stack app to a production environment, you should use a Kubernetes ingress controller to manage external access to the application. This will allow you to create routing rules and SSL certificates for the app.
