Overview of this book

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.

Summary

Microsoft Azure is a powerful and enterprise-grade cloud computing platform. Beside AKS, it also provides various services in different fields, such as analytics, virtual reality, and much more. In this chapter, we touched the surface of Azure virtual network, subnets, and load balancing. We also learned how to deploy and administrate the Kubernetes service in Azure. We walked through how Azure provides Kubernetes resources via the cloud controller manager for Azure. We got to know how the cloud controller manager for Azure provides a seamless experience for Azure users, such as by creating an Azure load balancer when a LoadBalancer service in Kubernetes is requested or pre-creating an Azure disk storage class.

This is the last chapter of this book. We have tried to walk through both basic and more advanced concepts in this Kubernetes learning journey. Because Kubernetes...
