Managing monorepos on Kubernetes doesn't have to be hard

Managing monorepos on Kubernetes can be challenging, but it doesn't have to be. Here are some tips to simplify the process.

Firstly, use Kubernetes namespaces to isolate your services. This ensures that each service has its own resources and is independent from the others. You can also use labels to organize your services based on your preferences, whether it's by application, team, or anything else.

Managing dependencies is always tricky, but Git submodules or Git subtrees can be a lifesaver. These features allow you to include references to other repositories within your monorepo, which makes it easier to manage dependencies while keeping everything in one place.

Another powerful tool in Kubernetes is the use of custom controllers called operators. By creating custom operators for your monorepo, you can automate tasks such as deploying and scaling services, managing databases, and more.

Finally, Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) is essential for managing monorepos. By automating your build, test, and deployment processes, you can ensure that your services are always up to date and running smoothly.

Overall, by using Kubernetes and these best practices, you can simplify the management of even the largest monorepos.
