Leverage the power of Kubernetes to build an efficient software delivery pipeline. Key Features Learn about DevOps, containers, and Kubernetes all within one handy book A practical guide to container management and orchestration Learn how to monitor, log, and troubleshoot your Kubernetes applications Book Description Kubernetes has been widely adopted across public clouds and on-premise data centers. As we're living in an era of microservices, knowing how to use and manage Kubernetes is an essential skill for everyone in the IT industry. This book is a guide to everything you need to know about Kubernetes—from simply deploying a container to administrating Kubernetes clusters wisely. You'll learn about DevOps fundamentals, as well as deploying a monolithic application as microservices and using Kubernetes to orchestrate them. You will then gain an insight into the Kubernetes network, extensions, authentication and authorization. With the DevOps spirit in mind, you'll learn how to allocate resources to your application and prepare to scale them efficiently. Knowing the status and activity of the application and clusters is crucial, so we'll learn about monitoring and logging in Kubernetes. Having an improved ability to observe your services means that you will be able to build a continuous delivery pipeline with confidence. At the end of the book, you'll learn how to run managed Kubernetes services on three top cloud providers: Google Cloud Platform, Amazon Web Services, and Microsoft Azure. What you will learn Learn fundamental and advanced DevOps skills and tools Get a comprehensive understanding of containers Dockerize an application Administrate and manage Kubernetes cluster Extend the cluster functionality with custom resources Understand Kubernetes network and service mesh Implement Kubernetes logging and monitoring Manage Kubernetes services in Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform,and Microsoft Azure Who this book is for This book is for anyone who wants to learn containerization and clustering in a practical way using Kubernetes. No prerequisite skills are required, however, essential DevOps skill and public/private Cloud knowledge will accelerate the reading speed. If you're advanced, you can get a deeper understanding of all the tools and technique described in the book.

Discover how cloud-native microservice architecture helps you to build dynamically scalable applications by using the most widely used and adopted runtime environments Key Features Build robust cloud-native applications using a variety of tools Understand how to configure both Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Docker clouds for high availability Explore common design patterns used in building and deploying microservices architecture. Book Description Businesses today are evolving rapidly, and developers now face the challenge of building applications that are resilient, flexible, and native to the cloud. To achieve this, you'll need to be aware of the environment, tools, and resources that you're coding against. The book will begin by introducing you to cloud-native architecture and simplifying the major concepts. You'll learn to build microservices in Jakarta EE using MicroProfile with Thorntail and Narayana LRA. You'll then delve into cloud-native application x-rays, understanding the MicroProfile specification and the implementation/testing of microservices. As you progress further, you'll focus on continuous integration and continuous delivery, in addition to learning how to dockerize your services. You'll also cover concepts and techniques relating to security, monitoring, and troubleshooting problems that might occur with applications after you've written them. By the end of this book, you will be equipped with the skills you need to build highly resilient applications using cloud-native microservice architecture. What you will learn Integrate reactive principles in MicroProfile microservices architecture Explore the 12-factors-app paradigm and its implications Get the best out of Java versions 8 and 9 to implement a microservice based on Thorntail Understand what OpenShift is and why it is so important for an elastic architecture Build a Linux container image using Docker and scale the application using Kubernetes Implement various patterns such as, Circuit Breaker and bulkheads Get to grips with the DevOps methodology using continuous integration (CI) and continuous deployment (CD) Who this book is for This book is for developers with basic knowledge of Java EE and HTTP-based application principles who want to learn how to build, test and scale Java EE microservices. No prior experience of writing microservices in Java EE is required.
