Manage a single shared session for the Online Boutique apps

By default, when you deploy this sample app, the Online Boutique's frontend generates a shop_session-id cookie per browser session. But you may want to share one unique shop_session-id cookie across all browser sessions. This is useful for multi-cluster environments.

Deploy Online Boutique to generate a single shared session

To automate the deployment of Online Boutique to manage a single shared session you can leverage the following variation with Kustomize.

From the kustomize/ folder at the root level of this repository, execute this command:

kustomize edit add component components/single-shared-session

This will update the kustomize/kustomization.yaml file which could be similar to:

apiVersion: kustomize.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Kustomization
resources:
- base
components:
- components/single-shared-session

You can locally render these manifests by running kubectl kustomize . as well as deploying them by running kubectl apply -k ..
