The Complete Kubernetes Guide

Design deploy and manage large-scale containers using KubernetesKey FeaturesGain insight into the latest features of Kubernetes including Prometheus and API aggregationDiscover ways to keep your clusters always available scalable and up-to-dateMaster the skills of designing and deploying large clusters on various cloud platformsBook DescriptionIf you are running a number of containers and want to be able to automate the way they’re managed it can be helpful to have Kubernetes at your disposal. This Learning Path guides you through core Kubernetes constructs such as pods services replica sets replication controllers and labels. You'll get started by learning how to integrate your build pipeline and deployments in a Kubernetes cluster. As you cover more chapters in the Learning Path you'll get up to speed with orchestrating updates behind the scenes avoiding downtime on your cluster and dealing with underlying cloud provider instability in your cluster. With the help of real-world use cases you'll also explore options for network configuration and understand how to set up operate and troubleshoot various Kubernetes networking plugins. In addition to this you'll gain insights into custom resource development and utilization in automation and maintenance workflows.By the end of this Learning Path you'll have the expertise you need to progress from an intermediate to an advanced level of understanding Kubernetes.This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products:Getting Started with Kubernetes - Third Edition by Jonathan Baier and Jesse WhiteMastering Kubernetes - Second Edition by Gigi SayfanWhat you will learnDownload install and configure the Kubernetes code baseCreate and configure custom Kubernetes resources Use third-party resources in your automation workflowsDeliver applications as standard packagesSet up and access monitoring and logging for Kubernetes clustersSet up external access to applications running in the clusterManage and scale Kubernetes with hosted platforms on Amazon Web Services (AWS) Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP)Run multiple clusters and manage them from a single control planeWho this book is forIf you are a developer or a system administrator with an intermediate understanding of Kubernetes and want to master its advanced features then this book is for you. Basic knowledge of networking is required to easily understand the concepts explained. About the Author Jonathan Baier is an emerging technology leader living in Brooklyn New York. He has had a passion for technology since an early age. When he was 14 years old he was so interested in the family computer (an IBM PCjr) that he pored over the several hundred pages of BASIC and DOS manuals. Then he taught himself to code a very poorly-written version of Tic-Tac-Toe. During his teenage years he started a computer support business. Throughout his life he has dabbled in entrepreneurship.
