Kubernetes is the leading orchestrator of cloud-native apps. With knowledge of how to work with Kubernetes, you can easily deploy and manage applications on the cloud or in your on-premises data center. The book begins by introducing you to Kubernetes and showing you how to install it. You’ll learn how to use Kubernetes Services and bring stable and reliable networking to apps that are deployed on Kubernetes. You'll delve deep into the powerful storage subsystem of Kubernetes and learn how to leverage the variety of external storage backends in your applications. As the book progresses, it shows you how to use features such as DaemonSets, Helm, and RBAC to enhance your Kubernetes applications. You'll explore the six categories of identifying vulnerabilities and look at a few ways to prevent and mitigate them. You'll also look at ways to secure the software delivery pipeline by discussing some image-related best practices. The book ends by sharing with you some resources that’ll help take your Kubernetes knowledge to the next level. By the end of the book, you’ll have the confidence and skills to leverage all the features of Kubernetes to develop scalable applications.

This book is a great way to get started on k8s. It's not an end all be all and that isn't it's goal anyways. After reading through the book you'll know enough to start using k8s clusters and what to look for to learn more.

PetkoB Dec 23, 2020

It's concise, understandable, and very well written. There are lots of diagrams and code snippets with just the right length to illustrate the subject.I had a faulty copy, but was reluctant to return the package, as it contained other books as well, and the author was kind enough to send me one himself. That led me to check also his online courses on Docker and K8s, and I am now hooked.Nigel's passion is sincere, he is not only an expert in containers' technology, but also able to explain clearly and to the point.

martin roende andersen Nov 14, 2017

Thank you for the clear and educating way to learn the old dog new tricks.I fell encouraged to move on to heavier docker "stuff" without being scared off.

Amazon Customer May 31, 2019

Surprised a book this short could contain such powerful information. Really great material. It doesn’t go super deep into K8s (the author has a second book for that) but gives you more than enough to get up to speed. Loved the “discussion” on Docker Swarm vs K8s, which is basically a one sentence line like “K8s and Docker Swarm used to be competitor, but K8s won and that’s all you need to know”. Great material, I prefer the print copy. Especially impressive since the book is entirely self-published. Rare to see something this good without a large publisher.
