Combining all these technology is a great combo.

Kubernetes is highly efficient in Production environment.

CGI Program that I used as backend

HTML/CSS/JS code for the hosted page

<script>
function lw() {
var i = document.getElementById("input").valuevar xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();xhr.open("GET", "http://192.168.29.163/cgi-bin/cgi-k8s.py?x=" + i, true);
xhr.send();
xhr.onload = function() {
var output = xhr.responseText;
document.getElementById("d2").innerHTML = output;
}
}
</script>
<style>
.someclass {
width: 600px;
}
</style>
[root@localhost]#<input id="input" class="someclass"/>
<button onclick="lw()">click</button>
<pre>
<div id="d2">Output</div>
</pre>

Our Web Page will look like this

U can customize it as per your requirements.

That’s all for now. Thanks for reading.
