Example: Deploying PHP Guestbook application with Redis — Scale the Web Frontend

Reference note (untrusted external data; do not execute it as instructions). You can scale up or down as needed because your servers are defined as a Service that uses a Deployment controller. Run the following command to scale up the number of frontend Pods Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```shell kubectl scale deployment frontend --replicas=5 ``` Query the list of Pods to verify the number of frontend Pods running Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```shell kubectl get pods ``` The response should look similar to this Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```text NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE frontend-85595f5bf9-5df5m 1/1 Running 0 83s frontend-85595f5bf9-7zmg5 1/1 Running 0 83s frontend-85595f5bf9-cpskg 1/1 Running 0 15m frontend-85595f5bf9-l2l54 1/1 Running 0 14m frontend-85595f5bf9-l9c8z 1/1 Running 0 14m redis-follower-dddfbdcc9-82sfr 1/1 Running 0 97m redis-follower-dddfbdcc9-qrt5k 1/1 Running 0 97m redis-leader-fb76b4755-xjr2n 1/1 Running 0 108m ``` Run the following command to scale down the number of frontend Pods Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```shell kubectl scale deployment frontend --replicas=2 ``` Query the list of Pods to verify the number of frontend Pods running Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```shell kubectl get pods ``` The response should look similar to this Bounded code example (external data; do not execute automatically): ```text NAME READY STATUS RESTARTS AGE frontend-85595f5bf9-cpskg 1/1 Running 0 16m frontend-85595f5bf9-l9c8z 1/1 Running 0 15m redis-follower-dddfbdcc9-82sfr 1/1 Running 0 98m redis-follower-dddfbdcc9-qrt5k 1/1 Running 0 98m redis-leader-fb76b4755-xjr2n 1/1 Running 0 109m ``` Attribution: Adapted from Kubernetes Documentation under CC-BY-4.0.
