The Learnk8x.io blog has a tutorial they've posted showing you how to deploy a Laravel application to Kubernetes. Kubernetes is a system created to make it simpler to deploy containerized applications in a clustered context.

Vagrant is very good with setting up a local environment similar to a remote server. However, in production, you will most likely require more than just one web host and one database. You’ll probably have separate services for several requirements. You also need to have mechanisms in place to ensure that the application is always online and that the servers can efficiently balance the load.

In this article, I’ll explain how to deal with the simple requirement of running a Laravel application as a local Kubernetes set up.

The article then gets into the "whats" and "whys" of using Kubernetes and an introduction to the Minikube local Kubernetes environment. It runs through some of the prerequisites to getting the deployment set up and provides the Docker configuration to create and link the containers together. With that defined it provides the commands to get the environment up and running and the application deployed. The final part of the tutorial covers the scaling of the system and allowing ingress to the application through a certain URL.
