What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.

As a reader with a few years of hands-on experience deploying at scale and managing both Amazon EKS and Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE), "Kubernetes - An Enterprise Guide" by Marc Boorshetein and Scott Surovich is an excellent guide for those just learning about Kubernetes as well as seasoned professionals. The end of each chapter includes a summary and questions that can be used for study. They also include a link to their Discord community if you would have questions.The authors start by covering container fundamentals and Docker concepts. Docker is one of the most widely used tooling for developing with containers. It is geared towards individuals who have prior experience with containers. I found this information useful as someone with years of experience. This leads into working with Kubernetes locally by deploying a cluster with KinD (Kubernetes in Docker). This is a great way to learn the basics of Kubernetes without having to spend money on cloud resources or procuring hardware. Chapter 2 covers common components of Kubernetes as well as how to interact with a cluster using kubectl. Example screenshots and configurations are provided which should be helpful for those new to the tooling and concepts when learning KinD.There is a wealth of information in regards to Kubernetes concepts; therefore, it would be quite difficult to learn by simply reading a textbook. The information is similar to what you might find in the documentation online, but with more in depth analysis and focused sections. A beginner would likely need to revisit sections based on what that person's role is in terms of interacting with Kubernetes. Overall this book includes some great information for an individual migrating their organization to Kubernetes.I was able to learn some new things even as an experienced user, for example, the chapter about the K8GB I found particularly enlightening. I knew the basics going in, but have not been working with Kubernetes lately so it was a good refresher to see them again. There were also some insightful explanations I can use moving forward. I definitely recommend reading for anyone with some experience with containers and is ready to level up and start using Kubernetes at scale.There are many solutions to choose from when it comes to cluster components. The authors have chosen some of the most popular solutions to cover in depth so this information is immediately useful for users looking to implement Kubernetes at an Enterprise level.

is an insightful and practical resource for mastering Kubernetes in enterprise environments. It effectively addresses the complexities of containerized application deployments, focusing on key aspects such as scaling, security, and multi-cluster management. The book provides valuable real-world use cases and detailed examples, making it particularly useful for integrating Kubernetes into existing infrastructure.While its depth may challenge complete beginners, it is an invaluable guide for cloud architects and IT professionals seeking to enhance their Kubernetes expertise for scalable and secure enterprise applications.

I like the way author explained about container it helped to understand the concepts better level and also gave me more understanding why we Kubernetes. At the enterprise level, the load is pretty heavy and the author took the time to cover it all in load balancing and building multitenent cluster. This is gives you deep insight information about managing secrets and building a secure k8 cluster. I highly recommend this book for any interested from novice to professionals.

I was impressed with how much this book covers. It starts with Docker basics and building a KinD cluster, a technology that's accessible to developers on a laptop learning the basics of Kubernetes. Subsequent chapters delve into more advanced topics that are useful for experienced readers. The sample code is all available on Github, and instructions are provided for the reader to follow along. I would recommend this book for both people learning about Kubernetes and more experienced Kubernetes developers.

I had the privilege of receiving a prerelease copy of the 3rd edition of Kubernetes - An Enterprise Guide, and I was thoroughly impressed by its comprehensive and detailed treatment of key Kubernetes topics. The authors' recommendation to use Kubernetes in Docker (KinD) for local testing of Kubernetes resources was particularly insightful and practical. This book has already provided immense value, and I anticipate it will serve as an indispensable reference as I step into a new infrastructure-focused role.
