Running Kubernetes in Production
In the previous chapter, we discussed governance and policy engines. This is an important part of managing large-scale Kubernetes-based systems in production. However, it is only one part. In this chapter, we will turn our attention to the overall management of Kubernetes in production. The focus will be on running multiple Managed Kubernetes clusters in the cloud.
The topics we will cover are:
- Understanding Managed Kubernetes in the cloud
- Managing multiple clusters
- Building effective processes for large-scale Kubernetes deployments
- Handling infrastructure at scale
- Managing clusters and node pools
- Upgrading Kubernetes
- Troubleshooting
- Cost management
