Kubernetes probes are essential tools for maintaining the health and reliability of applications running in containers. Among these, the liveness probe plays a critical role in checking if an application is running correctly. If it detects any problems, Kubernetes can automatically restart the affected container, thus ensuring the application remains available without manual intervention. In this hands-on guide, we will walk through the steps to configure a simple liveness probe, along with how they work, and their importance within the Kubernetes ecosystem. By the end, you should have a comprehensive understanding of liveness probes, including how to configure them and troubleshoot common issues.

At Qovery, we build our frontend using Nx and rely on the official nrwl/ci GitHub Actions. Our frontend requires third-party tokens during compile time, but we would like to avoid hardcoding them or using the .env file to define our tokens. The latter exposes our source code directly on GitHub, and even though it's not sensitive data, we don't want it to be easily scraped. As probably many others, we've faced issues when we dug into environment variables using this reusable workflow: https://github.com/nrwl/ci?tab=readme-ov-file#limited-secrets-support https://github.com/nrwl/ci/issues/92 https://github.com/nrwl/ci/issues/44 So, I wanted to share the lessons I learned from this experience.

Kubernetes has emerged as the de facto orchestrator for deploying and managing containerized applications. Its versatility and robust ecosystem have paved the way for innovative tools that leverage its capabilities, extending its utility beyond mere container orchestration. Among these tools, Crossplane and Qovery stand out for their unique approaches to simplifying cloud resource management. While they serve different purposes, both share a common foundation in utilizing Kubernetes as an orchestration layer, underscoring a shared belief in Kubernetes' ability to manage all types of workloads, including external ones.
