Cloud Native Devops with Kubernetes by Justin Domingus

Cloud Native Devops with Kubernetes by Justin Domingus

Kubernetes has become the operating system of today's cloud native world, providing a reliable and scalable platform for running containerized workloads. In this friendly, pragmatic book, cloud experts Justin Domingus and John Arundel show you what Kubernetes can do-and what you can do with it.

This updated second edition guides you through the growing Kubernetes ecosystem and provides practical solutions to everyday problems with software tools currently in use. You'll walk through an example containerized application running in Kubernetes step-by-step, from the development environment through the continuous deployment pipeline, exploring patterns you can use for your own applications. Make your development teams lean, fast, and effective by adopting Kubernetes and DevOps principles.

• Understand containers and Kubernetes-no experience necessary
• Run your own applications on managed cloud Kubernetes services or on-prem environments
• Design your own cloud native services and infrastructure
• Use Kubernetes to manage resource usage and the container lifecycle
• Optimize clusters for cost, performance, resilience, capacity, and scalability
• Learn the best tools for developing, testing, and deploying your applications
• Apply the latest industry practices for observability and monitoring
• Secure your containers and clusters in production

John Arundel works as a devops consultant, which means he makes a livelihood solving challenging problems. (He isn't brought in for minor issues.) He has worked in the tech sector for 20 years and has done (or seen) almost everything that can go wrong with computers during that time. One of his biggest talents as a consultant, he believes, is his extensive experience of what not to do. He's still working on it. He enjoys authoring books, particularly those regarding Puppet (the Puppet 3 Beginner's Handbook is published by the same company).

At the very least, it appears that some people enjoy reading them. He also offers Puppet training and coaching, which turns out to be significantly more difficult than simply performing the work himself. He can generally be spotted driving a Land Rover up some mountain while he's not working. He lives in a little home in Cornwall and, like Cicero, believes that if you have a garden and a library, you've got all you need.
