Another call today where a client has application teams throwing things over the fence into #k8s. A huge amount of the problems we are now seeing are apps without the basics.

There are a long list of things you should have, but the top four we highlight for apps on #kubernetes
1. Startup Probe
2. Liveness Probe
3. Readiness Probe
4. Graceful shutdown - be able to handle a sigterm in #kubernetes
Simply put you should not have any apps going into production that does not have the four of these. Your application needs these to take advantage of #k8s and the #kubernetes core team have put a lot of thought into making these simple to use.
If you run an engineering org check people are doing these. It is not hard, and you can automate the checks. Your ops teams will thank you - a lot.
And yes there is a lot more you should be doing, but at least get these four in place.
