Helm vs. Kustomize: When, Why, and How?

Check out my complete courses at www.udemy.com/... and join 13,000+ happy students.
Helm and Kustomize are both great tools for managing complex Kubernetes deployments. However, it may be challenging for newcomers to discover how each technology does it, where it shines, and where it falls back.
In this video, we put Helm and Kustomize face to face, challenge them with modern DevOps use cases and see what each has to offer.

I really enjoyed the comparison of these two technologies and the thorough analysis you made, thank you for posting this video!

Thanks for the video! I would give Helm some more credits on the Templating part tho.. Helm's templating capabilities, with its flexible Go templates and dynamic values.yaml, offer a level of sophistication and customization that Kustomize doesn't match. This makes Helm a clear winner in templating, especially for complex Kubernetes deployments

Although this video doesn’t mention the sealed secrets in Kubernetes, it provides good insights.

Good 👍

Anyone remember when Helm still had Tiller? What a nightmare haha

[@kostiantynivanov6875]

some rounds are just ridiculous, e.g. saying that Kustomize is better at handling secrets while Helm provides the same functionality differently is nonsense - it's a draw to me in handling secrets round
also the next round regarding handling super complex projects - I have no idea why you decided the clear winner was Kustomize when you gave 0 insights into what functionality Helm misses which Kustomize provides

Get the best of both with Flux2 :)
