Design, deploy, and manage large-scale containers using Kubernetes Key Features Gain insight into the latest features of Kubernetes, including Prometheus and API aggregation Discover ways to keep your clusters always available, scalable, and up-to-date Master the skills of designing and deploying large clusters on various cloud platforms Book 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 White Mastering Kubernetes - Second Edition by Gigi Sayfan What you will learn Download, install, and configure the Kubernetes code base Create and configure custom Kubernetes resources Use third-party resources in your automation workflows Deliver applications as standard packages Set up and access monitoring and logging for Kubernetes clusters Set up external access to applications running in the cluster Manage 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 plane Who 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.

Schedule and run application containers using Kubernetes Key Features Get to grips with a wide range of tools to monitor and secure your deployments Manage your container clusters and networks using Kubernetes Get well-versed with the fundamentals of Kubernetes Book DescriptionKubernetes has continued to grow and achieve broad adoption across various industries, helping you to orchestrate and automate container deployments on a massive scale. Based on the recent release of Kubernetes 1.12, Getting Started with Kubernetes gives you a complete understanding of how to install a Kubernetes cluster. The book focuses on core Kubernetes constructs, such as pods, services, replica sets, replication controllers, and labels. You will understand cluster-level networking in Kubernetes, and learn to set up external access to applications running in the cluster. As you make your way through the book, you'll understand how to manage deployments and perform updates with minimal downtime. In addition to this, you will explore operational aspects of Kubernetes , such as monitoring and logging, later moving on to advanced concepts such as container security and cluster federation. You'll get to grips with integrating your build pipeline and deployments within a Kubernetes cluster, and be able to understand and interact with open source projects. In the concluding chapters, you'll orchestrate updates behind the scenes, avoid downtime on your cluster, and deal with underlying cloud provider instability within your cluster. By the end of this book, you'll have a complete understanding of the Kubernetes platform and will start deploying applications on it. What you will learn Download, install, and configure the Kubernetes code base Set up and access monitoring and logging for Kubernetes clusters Set up external access to applications running in the cluster Learn how to manage and scale kubernetes with hosted platforms on AWS, Azure, and GCP Run multiple clusters and manage them from a single control plane Discover top tools for deploying and managing a Kubernetes cluster Learn how to get production ready and harden Kubernetes operations, networking, and storage Who this book is forGetting Started with Kubernetes is for developers, system administrators, and DevOps engineers who want to automate the deployment process and scale their applications. No prior knowledge of Kubernetes is required.
