Managing Advanced Kubernetes Resources
In the previous chapter, we covered Kubernetes and why we need it and then discussed bootstrapping a Kubernetes cluster using MiniKube and KinD. We then looked at the Pod resource and discussed how to create and manage pods, how to troubleshoot them, and how to ensure your application’s reliability using probes, along with multi-container design patterns to appreciate why Kubernetes uses pods in the first place instead of containers. We also looked at Secrets and ConfigMaps.
Now, we will dive deep into the advanced aspects of Kubernetes and Kubernetes command-line best practices.
In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:
- The need for advanced Kubernetes resources
- Kubernetes Deployments
- Kubernetes Services and Ingresses
- Horizontal pod autoscaling
- Managing stateful applications
- Kubernetes command-line best practices, tips, and tricks
So, let’s dive in!
