Certainly! Below is a sample GitHub markdown template for documenting a microservices application built with Kubernetes and Docker:

Microservices Application with Kubernetes and Docker

This repository contains a microservices-based application that leverages Kubernetes for orchestration and Docker for containerization.

Overview

The application consists of multiple microservices that communicate with each other to deliver specific functionalities. Each microservice is encapsulated within a Docker container, allowing for scalability and easy deployment using Kubernetes.

Services

Service 1:

Description: This service handles

• Docker Image: dockerhub/service1
• Kubernetes Deployment: service1-deployment.yaml

Service 2:

Description: This service provides

• Docker Image: dockerhub/service2
• Kubernetes Deployment: service2-deployment.yaml

...

Kubernetes Configuration

The kubernetes/ directory contains configuration files for deploying and managing the microservices using Kubernetes.

Deployment Files

• service1-deployment.yaml: Kubernetes deployment configuration for Service 1.
• service2-deployment.yaml: Kubernetes deployment configuration for Service 2.
• (Include deployment files for each microservice)

Service Discovery and Networking

The application uses Kubernetes service discovery for inter-service communication. Services are exposed internally using Kubernetes services and can communicate with each other through service endpoints.

How to Deploy

To deploy the microservices application on a Kubernetes cluster, follow these steps:

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/microservices-app.git

2. Navigate to Kubernetes Directory:

   cd microservices-app/kubernetes

3. Apply Kubernetes Configurations: Use kubectl to apply the deployment and service configurations.

   kubectl apply -f service1-deployment.yaml
   kubectl apply -f service2-deployment.yaml

4. Verify Deployment: Check the status of pods, services, and deployments using kubectl.

   kubectl get pods
   kubectl get services
   kubectl get deployments

5. Access the Application: Use the exposed service endpoints to access the microservices within the Kubernetes cluster.
