This blog post is about using the domain mapping functionality in IBM Cloud Code Engine to use custom domains and TLS certificates for your applications. The source code related to an example setup is in the GitHub project example WebApp build on Vue.js. But now we are going to use a wild card certificate for our domain *.example.com. With a TLS certificate for that domain.
This blog post is about using the IBM Watson Natural Language Processing Library for Embed on IBM Cloud Code Engine and is related to my blog post Run Watson NLP for Embed on your local computer with Docker. IBM Cloud Code Engine is a fully managed, serverless platform where you can run container images or batch jobs.
When software is provided as a managed service (SaaS), using a multi-tenant approach helps minimise costs for the deployments and operations of each tenant. In order to leverage these advantages, applications need to be designed so that they can be deployed to support multiple tenants, while maintaining isolation for security reasons. At the same time, common deployment and operation models are required so that new SaaS versions can be deployed to existing tenants, or to onboard new tenants, in a reliable and efficient way.
This blog post addresses the topic, how to use environment variables to make a containerized Vue.js frontend application more flexible. We will touch following technologies Vue.js, NGINX, JavaScript, Dockerfile and Code Engine.
When you run a containerized application on a container orchestration platform like Kubernetes, Open Shift or with a serverless framework like Knative or Code Engine or on other platforms, it is helpful to pass endpoints to other applications to the containerized application by using environment variables. When the container will be restarted, these variables can be provided to the container and no adjustment in the source code is necessary. You can use configmaps or in Code Engine simple the environment variable itself.
Code Engine is build to create modern, source-centric, containerized, and serverless apps and jobs. Take a quiz to get started with the Code Engine terminology.
