Who this book is for

This book is for the engineer that wants to use Kubernetes in production. Perhaps you’ve just learned the basics and beginner-level information about Kubernetes, and you’re now ready to make it to the next level. Maybe you’re getting ready to implement Kubernetes in production or test out containerized workloads for your environment. In either case, you can use this book as a source to showcase what you should be thinking about in production.

Think about this book as almost a “guide.” There’s theory, hands-on sections, and actual code that works from start to finish to create and deploy Kubernetes resources. As mentioned in the preface, this book can’t cover every single topic in depth, as many of the topics are books within themselves, but you can use it as a “guide” to deploy to production.
