Ultimate Baseline GKE cluster, Pt 2

<p>In the&nbsp;<a href="https://joachim8675309.medium.com/ultimate-baseline-gke-cluster-261c1b5544be" rel="noopener"><strong>previous article</strong></a>&nbsp;I demonstrated how to setup a baseline cluster with&nbsp;<a href="https://cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>GKE</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;</strong>that has private subnet and least-privilege service account. I also covered some basic tests that can be used to demo or troubleshoot cluster features.</p> <p>In this article, I will show a robust stateful application, called&nbsp;<a href="https://dgraph.io/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>Dgraph</strong></a>, a highly performant resilient distributed graph database.</p> <h2>Why Dgraph?</h2> <p>The<strong>&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://dgraph.io/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>Dgraph</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;</strong>database is a&nbsp;<em>cloud native</em>&nbsp;application that is highly resilient with built-in high availability, communicates using&nbsp;<a href="https://grpc.io/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>gRPC</strong></a>&nbsp;(HTTP/2) or&nbsp;<a href="https://graphql.org/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>GraphQL</strong></a>&nbsp;(HTTP/1.1), and has built-in&nbsp;<em>metrics</em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>distributed tracing</em>&nbsp;through&nbsp;<a href="https://opencensus.io/" rel="noopener ugc nofollow" target="_blank"><strong>OpenCensus</strong></a>.</p> <p><a href="https://joachim8675309.medium.com/ultimate-baseline-gke-cluster-pt-2-b7c123290542"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
