With the trend of microservices architecture in the recent years, a monolithic application is refactored into multiple microservices. Container simplifies the deployment of the application build from microservices. Container management, automation, and orchestration have become crucial problems. Kubernetes is here to solve these.

This book is a practical guide that provides step-by-step tips and examples to help you build and run your own Kubernetes cluster in both private and public clouds. Following along with the book will lead you to understanding how to deploy and manage your application and services in Kubernetes. You will also gain a deep understanding of how to scale and update live containers, and how to do port forwarding and network routing in Kubernetes. You will learn how to build a robust high-availability cluster with the book's hands-on examples. Finally, you will build a Continuous Delivery pipeline by integrating Jenkins, Docker registry, and Kubernetes.
