For a test of the DebugContainer on a Kubernetes cluster, I have created a corresponding deployment file. It sets up the same environment as described in Debug Container for simple Tests/Analyzing and is located here: k8s_deployment.yaml.

The green service is public accessible (type: LoadBalancer) and thus the only entry point for the other conatins (type: ClusterIP). In addition, it is very nice that the calls are made directly over the service name and not cumbersome over IP addresses, as with the local Docker. The four configuration sections are marked in color.
