+#### Objective
+
+In this lab, you will learn how to deploy a MySQL server and configure Probing using Cloudplex.
+
+#### Prerequisite
+
+If you want to deploy this lab, you need to deploy at least one infrastructure. We have labs on infrastructure as well, you can follow them to deploy infrastructure
+
+
+#### Add Application Info
+
+Give name to your application and specify the version, you can add tags to your application as well
+
+![app-info](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/1.png)
+
+Click on the **next** button on the top right corner.
+
+
+#### Add Secret Service
+
+CloudPlex platform provides a secret management service that provides the ability to store sensitive data such as passwords, tokens, and certificates in Cloudplex. Any data entered in this service is stored in a secure vault with at-rest encryption. This eventually becomes a [Kubernetes Secret](https:/kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/configuration/secret) in a deployed application.
+
+To configure the service, Drag-n-drop **Secret service** from pallet to the canvas.
+
+![secret-service](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/2.gif)
+
+Click on the service to open the configuration panel on the right side.
+
+The platform will populate the default values of service (Service Id, Service Name, Namespace)

+
+![mysql-service](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/10.png)
+
+CloudPlex automatically pulls all the tags and metadata of the image and populates default values of service (Service Id, Service Name, Namespace, Type)
+
+
+##### Add new Environment Variables 
+
+Click on the **Environment variables section** to add a new [environment variable](https:/kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/inject-data-application/define-environment-variable-container/#define-an-environment-variable-for-a-container).
+
+Cloudplex provides two types of variables ([Static](https://docs.cloudplex.io/#/pages/user-guide/components/k8s-resources/container/container), [Dynamic](https://docs.cloudplex.io/#/pages/user-guide/components/k8s-resources/container/container)). We are going to use Dynamic variable in this lab to use the ***Secret*** key in our container
+
+![dynamic-parameters](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/11.png)
+
+Select the secret service from the service drop-down and type MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD in the key field.
+
+![dynamic-variables-key](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/12.png)
+
+Expand ***Service Attributes*** and Secrets Data and select ***MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD***. Cloudplex automatically generates dynamic  parameters for you.
+
+![dynamic-variables-key-select](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/13.png)
+
+Click on the save button to save the parameters.
+
+![save-button-2](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/14.png)
+
+A new environment variable with the key ***MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD*** will be added in the list of Environment Variables.
+
+![saved-environment-variable](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/15.png)
+
+Click on the back button on top of the configurations.
+
+
+##### Add new Port
+
+[Ports](https:/kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/services-networking/connect-applications-service/#the-kubernetes-model-for-connecting-containers) are required to access your applications. Click on the **Port section** to add a new port
+
+![Add-Ports-01](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/16.png)
+
+Cloudplex automatically discovers ports from Docker images and populates them in the ports section of the service.
+
+![Add-Ports-02](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/17.png)
+

+
+![service-save](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/18.png)
+
+#### Configure Probing
+
+Now that you have created a MySQL container and a CloudPlex secret service, let’s configure probing
+
+Kubernetes liveness and readiness probes can be used to make a service more robust and more resilient, by reducing operational issues and improving the quality of service.
+
+Click on the ***Advance Configurations*** and then Click on the ***Probing*** section to expand and Configure Probing for your service
+
+![Probing](images/probing.gif)
+
+##### Readiness Probe
+
+Kubernetes uses readiness probes to decide when the container is available for accepting traffic. A pod is considered ready when all of its containers are ready. 
+
+Lets configure readiness probe first, Select ***Exec*** from handler dropdown and pass the following command. 
+
+```yaml
+sh
+-c
+mysqladmin ping -u root -p${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD}
+```
+
+![readiness-prbing](images/readiness.png)
+
+Configure the other configurations using the following mentioned values
+
+```yaml
+
+Initial Delay Seconds: 5
+Timeout Seconds: 1
+Period Seconds: 10
+Success Threshold: 1
+Failure Threshold: 3
+```
+All field descriptions are available on the platform once you hover on the field.
+
+![readiness-probing-values](images/readiness-values.png)
+
+##### Liveness Probe
+
+Kubernetes uses liveness probes to know when to restart a container. If a container is unresponsive—due to some issue, restarting the container can make the application more available.
+
+Lets configure the liveness probe next. Select ***Exec*** from handler dropdown and pass the following command.
+
+```yaml
+sh
+-c
+mysqladmin ping -u root -p${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD}
+```
+
+![liveness-probing](images/liveness.png)
+
+Configure the other configurations using the following mentioned values
+
+```yaml
+
+Initial Delay Seconds: 30
+Timeout Seconds: 5
+Period Seconds: 10
+Success Threshold: 1
+Failure Threshold: 5
+```
+
+![liveness-probing-values](images/liveness-values.png)
+
+
+#### Deploy Application
+
+Click on the **Deploy** button at the top right corner and select the ***Infrastruture*** from the drop down list of your deployed infrastructures, your deployment will start right after saving the application and it will redirect you to the logs tabs or you can save it by clicking on the ***Save*** button to deploy it later.
+
+In the log window, you can see the logs of your application.
+
+![app-deployment-logs](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CloudplexPlatform/developer-community/feature/github-data-fetching/applications/liveness%20and%20readiness/labs/probing/images/19.png)
