helm

• good tooling for building sets of services together
• may not be able to use helm chart for development and production
  • concern about diverging charts (like vagrant vs production)
  • Have a separate repo for charts and tooling downloads the charts that is combined with the local values.yaml
  • values.yaml varries between production and development
• Problem: balance between repos containing charts needing to be updated by ops
• mathoid propsal - https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/376319/
• helm plugins for templated charts? Possible?

Ops

• Pod network policy is done
