A practical guide towards container management and orchestration Who This Book Is For This book is targeted for anyone, who wants to learn containerization and clustering in a practical way using Kubernetes. No prerequisite skills required, however, essential DevOps skill and public/private Cloud knowledge will accelerate the reading speed. If you're advanced readers, you can also get a deeper understanding of all the tools and technique described in the book. What You Will Learn Learn fundamental and advanced DevOps skills and tools Get a comprehensive understanding for container Learn how to move your application to container world Learn how to manipulate your application by Kubernetes Learn how to work with Kubernetes in popular public cloud Improve time to market with Kubernetes and Continuous Delivery Learn how to monitor, log, and troubleshoot your application with Kubernetes In Detail Containerization is said to be the best way to implement DevOps. Google developed Kubernetes, which orchestrates containers efficiently and is considered the frontrunner in container orchestration. Kubernetes is an orchestrator that creates and manages your containers on clusters of servers. This book will guide you from simply deploying a container to administrate a Kubernetes cluster, and then you will learn how to do monitoring, logging, and continuous deployment in DevOps. The initial stages of the book will introduce the fundamental DevOps and the concept of containers. It will move on to how to containerize applications and deploy them into. The book will then introduce networks in Kubernetes. We then move on to advanced DevOps skills such as monitoring, logging, and continuous deployment in Kubernetes. It will proceed to introduce permission control for Kubernetes resources via attribute-based access control and role-based access control. The final stage of the book will cover deploying and managing your container clusters on the popular public cloud Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Platform. At the end of the book, other orchestration frameworks, such as Docker Swarm mode, Amazon ECS, and Apache Mesos will be discussed. Style and approach Readers will be taken through fundamental DevOps skills and Kubernetes concept and administration with detailed examples. It introduces comprehensive DevOps topics, including microservices, automation tools, containers, monitoring, logging, continuous delivery, and popular public cloud environments. At each step readers will learn how to leverage Kubernetes in their everyday lives and transform their original delivery pipeline for fast and efficient delivery.

Increase profitability, elevate work culture, and exceed productivity goals through DevOps practices. More than ever, the effective management of technology is critical for business competitiveness. For decades, technology leaders have struggled to balance agility, reliability, and security. The consequences of failure have never been greater―whether it's the healthcare.gov debacle, cardholder data breaches, or missing the boat with Big Data in the cloud. And yet, high performers using DevOps principles, such as Google, Amazon, Facebook, Etsy, and Netflix, are routinely and reliably deploying code into production hundreds, or even thousands, of times per day. Following in the footsteps of The Phoenix Project, The DevOps Handbook shows leaders how to replicate these incredible outcomes, by showing how to integrate Product Management, Development, QA, IT Operations, and Information Security to elevate your company and win in the marketplace.

This book is an engineering reference manual that explains "How to do DevOps?". It is targeted to people and organizations that are "doing DevOps" but not satisfied with the results that they are getting. There are plenty of books that describe different aspects of DevOps and customer user stories, but up until now there has not been a book that frames DevOps as an engineering problem with a step-by-step engineering solution and a clear list of recommended engineering practices to guide implementors. The step-by-step engineering prescriptions can be followed by leaders and practitioners to understand, assess, define, implement, operationalize, and evolve DevOps for their organization. The book provides a unique collection of engineering practices and solutions for DevOps. By confining the scope of the content of the book to the level of engineering practices, the content is applicable to the widest possible range of implementations. This book was born out of the author's desire to help others do DevOps, combined with a burning personal frustration. The frustration comes from hearing leaders and practitioners say, "We think we are doing DevOps, but we are not getting the business results we had expected." Engineering DevOps describes a strategic approach, applies engineering implementation discipline, and focuses operational expertise to define and accomplish specific goals for each leg of an organization's unique DevOps journey. This book guides the reader through a journey from defining an engineering strategy for DevOps to implementing The Three Ways of DevOps maturity using engineering practices: The First Way (called "Continuous Flow") to The Second Way (called "Continuous Feedback") and finally The Third Way (called "Continuous Improvement"). This book is intended to be a guide that will continue to be relevant over time as your specific DevOps and DevOps more generally evolves.

Containers have revolutionised the way we package and run applications. However, like most things, containers come with a bunch of challenges. This is where Kubernetes comes into play. Kubernetes helps you deploy and manage containerised applications at scale. It also abstracts the underlying infrastructure so that you don't need to care if you're deploying applications to Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, or your own on-premises datacenter. With Kubernetes, you can develop applications on your laptop, deploy to your favourite cloud platform, migrate to a different cloud platform, and even migrate to your on-premises datacenters. Finally, Kubernetes and cloud technologies are developing fast! That's why this book will be updated every year, meaning it's always up-to-date with the latest versions of Kubernetes and the latest trends in the cloud-native ecosystem. --
