Key benefits

  • Build and run efficient cloud-native applications on Kubernetes using industry best practices
  • Operate Kubernetes in a production environment, troubleshoot clusters, and address security concerns
  • Deploy cutting-edge Kubernetes patterns such as service mesh and serverless to your cluster

Description

Kubernetes is a modern cloud native container orchestration tool and one of the most popular open source projects worldwide. In addition to the technology being powerful and highly flexible, Kubernetes engineers are in high demand across the industry. This book is a comprehensive guide to deploying, securing, and operating modern cloud native applications on Kubernetes. From the fundamentals to Kubernetes best practices, the book covers essential aspects of configuring applications. You’ll even explore real-world techniques for running clusters in production, tips for setting up observability for cluster resources, and valuable troubleshooting techniques. Finally, you’ll learn how to extend and customize Kubernetes, as well as gaining tips for deploying service meshes, serverless tooling, and more on your cluster. By the end of this Kubernetes book, you’ll be equipped with the tools you need to confidently run and extend modern applications on Kubernetes.

Who is this book for?

This book is for developers, architects, DevOps engineers, or anyone interested in developing and managing cloud-native applications. Those already running cloud applications and looking for a better way to manage their platform or others interested in a career change given the recent popularity of Kubernetes will also find this book helpful. Some familiarity with cloud computing, containers and DevOps is required, but no prior knowledge of building production applications using Kubernetes is needed to get started with this book.

What you will learn

  • Set up Kubernetes and configure its authentication
  • Deploy your applications to Kubernetes
  • Configure and provide storage to Kubernetes applications
  • Expose Kubernetes applications outside the cluster
  • Control where and how applications are run on Kubernetes
  • Set up observability for Kubernetes
  • Build a continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipeline for Kubernetes
  • Extend Kubernetes with service meshes, serverless, and more

This book goes into everything from Kubernetes fundamentals to best practices and modern patterns in production. A very in-depth resource for anyone that is interested in using Kubernetes!

I wish this book were around a few years ago when I was first using Kubernetes. The first part of this book organizes the firehose of information when first learning Kubernetes while providing invaluable debugging examples of kubelet, unhealthy nodes, container errors, and service communication failures. The second part of the book covers helpful considerations for devs deploying their applications in a Kubernetes cluster. The last part then dives into Istio. This book has something to offer for anyone regardless of their Kubernetes experience. The first part will be my go-to recommendation for folks new to Kubernetes.

Summary: A very “COMPLETE and WIDE” k8s book with many examples/tutorials on many Kubernetes “Parts/Add-ons”, e.g. Rook/Ceph, Falco, Jaeger, EFK, Prometheus, Grafana, Helm, Kustomize, AWS Codebuild, FluxCD, CRDs/Operators for cloud-controller-manager, cluster-autoscaler, Sidecar proxies (Nginx and Envoy), Istio, Serverless (Knative and OpenFaaS), Stateful workloads (Minio, Cockroach DB, RabbitMQ). It is very wide in terms of coverage. However, do not expect very DEEP in some of the topics due to pages limitations. It will be a good starting point to learn all the basics and know many of the important parts/add-ons commonly used in a production k8s env.There are 4 sections. The first two are basics to me (CKA already), but will be good for any beginners. I like more in section 3 and 4 with their examples/detail steps. I read more seriously starting from chap 8 till the end.I like the following topics:1/ ch 8 – node/pod affinity and anti-affinity2/ ch 9 – observability on k8s: Metrics/Logging/Tracing/Alerts. You will learn how to install/use Prometheus, Grafana, Jaeger (and its CRD operator) and alerts manager.3/ ch 10 – troubleshooting k8s: good discussions/case studies, e.g. placement failures, service not responding, etc.…4/ ch 11 – CI/CD with Helm/Kustomize, in and out of cluster CI/CD, e.g. AWS Codebuild, FluxCD.5/ ch 12 – k8s security and compliance: review CVEs, admission controllers, PSP, Network Policies (my favorite), Falco install/config/rules/use cases.6/ ch 13 – extend k8s with CRDs: k8s operators, cloud-controller-manager, cluster-autoscaler (this is also called Vertical Auto Scaler), intro to CNCF.7/ ch 14 – sidecar proxies, service meshes, serverless: Nginx/Envoy (important proxies!), Istio, Knative and OpenFaaS.8/ ch 15 – Stateful workloads on k8s: Minio, Cockroach DB, RabbitMQ. It will help you understand the important points running stateful workloads and then you can apply the same concepts in others, e.g. Couchbase DB, MySQL, etc. in your env.Suggestions:1/ can add more graphs all over the book, e.g. Istio components, e.g. Pilot, Citadel, Gallery, etc. See Istio official page for Architecture diagrams. Similar suggestions for EFK, Jaeger, etc. so new readers can understand the set up better.2/ p.244 has a bug in the yaml file and I filed a PR#1 already in their code github.3/ p.191 has a typo - should be "millicpu"4/ p.203 missing a "-c" in the command k logs <pod name> -c <container name>5/ p.267 has a typo - should be "ls" instead of "Ls"

The book was well written and helped me get a good grasp of all the basics. The latter parts of the book included some more advanced topics that were not necessary for an initial overview but helped me understand more about the ecosystem.All in all, this was a solid read and the examples were helpful. Some topics could have been covered in more depth but the book itself is already quite long.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

How do I buy Early Access content? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same.

What is Early Access? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most. You not only get access to every chapter as it's delivered, edited, and updated, but you'll also get the finalized, DRM-free product to download in any format you want when it's published. As a member of Packt, you'll also be eligible for our exclusive offers, including a free course every day, and discounts on new and popular titles.
