The App

The application we are building today is a number sequence generator.

Given a number it generates 3 sequences (fibonacci, prime and factorial). Its not all that interesting, but for learning k8s basics it will do.

The app is made up of 4 microservices. If you don't know what a microservice is, thats fine. All you need to know is that it's a single application doing a single thing. Microservice architecture plays really nicely with k8s.
