Networking and Kubernetes is an essential guide for anyone who wants to deploy, manage, or troubleshoot a production scale Kubernetes network. Understanding Kubernetes clusters is not enough to operate Kubernetes at scale. Every layer of the stack--the network, operating system, and Kubernetes--depends on the layer below. Successful administrators need to understand each layer and how it works across deployments on-prim, in the cloud, and with managed services. Networking and Kubernetes clearly guides administrators through the layers of complexity and abstraction that come with running a Kubernetes network. It covers: The Kubernetes networking model The CNCF Container Network Interface Project and how to choose the best interface for your clusters The networking and Linux primitives that power Kubernetes How to quickly troubleshoot networking issues and prevent downtime Cloud networking and Kubernetes with the three major providers: AWS, GCP, and Azure The pros and cons of various network tools--and how to select the best ones for your stack
