MSDeploy

In Visual Studio 2010 a new deployment option is available to easily deploy your web applications: MSDeploy.

On your webserver itself you can deploy the created package using the Web Deployment tool. But I found out it is also possible to do this immediately in IIS 7.

  1. Open the IIS Manager by clicking Start > Run and typing inetmgr.
  2. In IIS Manager, expand the Server node and the Sites node, then select the Default Web Site.
  3. In the right-hand Actions pane, click the Import Application... link to launch the packaging wizard.
  4. Select the package that you created in the previous quick guide, MyApplication.zip, or any other package.
  5. In the Install an Application Package dialog, you will see the application and the database.
  6. On the Parameters page, enter a new application name if desired and enter a SQL connection string.
  7. Click Next to install the package.
  8. The Summary page will provide a high-level overview of some items that were installed from the package. The Details tab will give a lot of detail of exactly what was added.

A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t...
