Challenge on Kubernetes

Enable Per-Pod DNS Records for a Deployment

by Omkar Shelke

A service in the mesh namespace returns only a single IP during DNS lookup, preventing the peer-server pods from finding each other. Investigate why DNS does not return one address per pod and change the service configuration so that peer discovery works correctly.

Challenge on Kubernetes

Mount Only the Required ConfigMap Keys as Files to Run a Node.js Application

by Omkar Shelke

A Deployment is failing because application configuration is missing. Mount only specific keys from an existing ConfigMap as files inside the Pod at the correct path so the application can start successfully.
