Telepresence supports both local access from your computer to a remote Kubernetes cluster, and giving the remote cluster access to your locally-running server process.

This asciicast demonstrates local access to the remote cluster.

For more information see the Telepresence documentation.

Telepresence is a product of Datawire. You might also be interested in reading our Microservices Architecture Guide.

While this site doesn't provide GIF conversion at the moment, you can still do it yourself with the help of asciinema GIF generator utility - agg.

Once you have it installed, generate a GIF with the following command:

agg https://asciinema.org/a/109183 demo.gif

Or, if you already downloaded the recording file:

agg demo.cast demo.gif

Check agg --help for all available options. You can change font family and size, select color theme, adjust speed and more.

See agg manual for full usage instructions.
