Dafydd Thomas developed and delivered a Helm chart for the grafana/helm-charts repository, enabling automated deployment of the PDC agent within Kubernetes environments. His work focused on creating YAML-based configuration files, resource specifications, and image references, while integrating Grafana Private Data source Connect to streamline connectivity. By introducing default values and reusable templates, Dafydd ensured that installation, upgrades, scaling, and rollbacks could be managed efficiently and reproducibly. This approach reduced manual intervention and improved deployment consistency across environments. The project demonstrated depth in DevOps practices, leveraging Helm and Kubernetes to address scalability and lifecycle management for Grafana’s agent deployments.
