Great practical book to get comprehensive understanding of Kubernetes Architecture/components/functionality. Thing I liked most, the way whole content is categorized into 3 parts "Installation-Configuration/Managing/Troubleshooting", makes it easy to follow. Also, the diagrams, try and validate style of teaching, is truly engaging.Highly recommend as one of the key tools to prepare for Certified Kubernetes Administrator exam.

This book is a comprehensive resource for individuals preparing to take the CKA exam. The book covers all of the topics included on the exam, including installation and configuration, networking, scheduling, security, and troubleshooting. The author provides clear explanations of key concepts and offers practical examples to help readers gain a deep understanding of Kubernetes. Additionally, the book includes practice questions and a sample exam to help readers test their knowledge and prepare for the real test. I especially like how it's geared towards folks who may have less experience with k8s, but even those who are seasoned professionals can pick up some important tips for the exam. Overall, this guide is a valuable resource for anyone looking to become a Certified Kubernetes Administrator.

Overall, well-explained book and well done! It helped to explain all the topics that cover the CKA exam. On top of exam preparation, one thing I like about this book is to cover the topic of the namespace concept to relate to the multi-tenant model. Understanding the multi-tenant model is an effective way to help different projects and teams share the cluster and get the most use out of the same cluster. One thing I would recommend is to put more practice testing and emphasize more practice prior to the exam. since this exam requires more practice than any other certification exam.
