For each microservice, database, and queue manager that will be deployed in Kubernetes, one Deployment object and one Service object will be created. For all components, except for the edge server named gateway, the Service object will be of type ClusterIP. For the gateway, the Service object will be of type NodePort accepting external HTTPS requests on port 30433.

The config server will use a ConfigMap, containing the configuration files in the config-repo.

To hold credentials for the config server and its clients, two Secrets will be created: one for the config server and one for its clients.
