Go beyond simply learning Kubernetes fundamentals and its deployment,
and explore more advanced concepts, including serverless computing and
service meshes with the latest updates
Key Features
- Master Kubernetes architecture and design to build and deploy secure
distributed applications
- Learn advanced concepts like autoscaling, cluster federation,
serverless computing, and service mesh integration for observability
- Explore Kubernetes 1.18 features and its rich ecosystem of tools like
Kubectl, Knative, and Helm
Book Description
The third edition of Mastering Kubernetes is updated with the latest
tools and code enabling you to learn Kubernetes 1.18's latest features.
This book primarily concentrates on diving deeply into complex concepts
and Kubernetes best practices to help you master the skills of designing
and deploying large clusters on various cloud platforms.
The book trains you to run complex stateful microservices on Kubernetes
including advanced features such as horizontal pod autoscaling, rolling
updates, resource quotas, and persistent storage backend. With the two
new chapters, you will gain expertise in serverless computing and
utilizing service meshes.
As you proceed through the chapters, you will explore different options
for network configuration and learn to set up, operate, and troubleshoot
Kubernetes networking plugins through real-world use cases. Furthermore,
you will understand the mechanisms of custom resource development and
its utilization in automation and maintenance workflows.
By the end of this Kubernetes book, you will graduate from an
intermediate to advanced Kubernetes professional.
