Description

Key Features

  • This practical guide demystifies Kubernetes and ensures that your clusters are at all times available, scalable, and up to date
  • Discover new features such as autoscaling, rolling updates, resource quotas, and cluster size
  • Master the skills of designing and deploying large clusters on more than a few cloud platforms

Book Description

Kubernetes is an open source system to automate the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. If you are running more than just a few containers or want automated management of your containers, you wish to have Kubernetes.

This book mainly specializes in the advanced management of Kubernetes clusters. It covers problems that arise when you start using container orchestration in production. We start by giving you an overview of the guiding principles in Kubernetes design and show you the best practises in the fields of security, high availability, and cluster federation.

You will discover how to run complex stateful microservices on Kubernetes including advanced features as horizontal pod autoscaling, rolling updates, resource quotas, and persistent storage back ends. Using real-world use cases, we provide an explanation for the options for network configuration and provides guidelines on how to set up, operate, and troubleshoot more than a few Kubernetes networking plugins. In the end, we cover custom resource development and utilization in automation and maintenance workflows.

By the end of this book, you can know everything you wish to have to know to go from intermediate to advanced level.

What you’re going to learn

  • Architect a robust Kubernetes cluster for long-time operation
  • Discover the advantages of running Kubernetes on GCE, AWS, Azure, and bare metal
  • See the identity model of Kubernetes and options for cluster federation
  • Monitor and troubleshoot Kubernetes clusters and run a highly available Kubernetes
  • Create and configure custom Kubernetes resources and use third-party resources in your automation workflows
  • Discover the art of running complex stateful applications in your container environment
  • Deliver applications as standard packages
