In my previous post, I discussed the development of a chat bot for theme park information. All the code for which can be found over on my GitHub:

Up until now the bot had been running locally on my machine. The next step was to host it in order that people can actually start chatting with it.

There are different ways I could have hosted the bot but I decided to go with Kubernetes. The reason being is that I have wanted to learn Kubernetes for some time now, but just didn’t have a suitable project to take the plunge.

This and a follow up post will detail how I went about setting up an end to end build and deployment pipeline for the theme park bot.

Part 1 details setting up the Kubernetes cluster and supporting infrastructure in Azure. All the code presented is available on my GitHub at: themeparks-infrastructure.
