Ive actually been personally moving away from kubernetes for this kind of deployment and I am a big fan of using ansible to deploy containers using podman systemd units, you have a series of systemd .container files like the one below
[Unit]
Description=Loki
[Container]
Image=docker.io/grafana/loki:3.4.1
# Use volume and network defined below
Volume=/mnt/loki-config:/mnt/config
Volume=loki-tmp:/tmp/loki
PublishPort=3100:3100
AutoUpdate=registry
[Service]
Restart=always
TimeoutStartSec=900
[Install]
# Start by default on boot
WantedBy=multi-user.target default.target
You use ansible to write these into your /etc/containers/systemd/ folder. Example the file above gets written as /etc/containers/systemd/loki.container.
Your ansible script will then call systemctl daemon-reload and then you can systemctl start loki to finish the example
