The Kubernetes Book

I read the 2022 edition which has been expanded significantly in size (judging by the book infos here, 300 vs 100 pages).
I came across this book after having done the Kubernetes Deep Dive from the same author on acloud.guru. The book and the course complement each other well. The course emphasizes a bit more the networking aspect, while the book dives more into topics that aren’t touched in the course (StatefulSets and securing a K8s setup for example).
All in all the book gives a great overview how K8s works, how it is put together and how it is meant to be used. It focuses a lot on Deployments, Pods, Services and ReplicaSets. The material is easy to play around with the examples on the K8s contained in Docker desktop.
In a nutshell it‘s a good book for full K8s noobs like me who want to have a guided start into the topic. That‘s definitely the target audience.
As a consequence note there’s still a lot material for the reader to pursuit afterwards:
- it doesn’t go into DemonSets and Cron
- configuration solutions like cue or kustomize aren’t touched
- Eks and Gks are only touched here and there
- service meshes (multi container pods) are only mentioned
All in all a good intro
