Overview of this book

Containerization is said to be the best way to implement DevOps. Google developed Kubernetes, which orchestrates containers efficiently and is considered the frontrunner in container orchestration. Kubernetes is an orchestrator that creates and manages your containers on clusters of servers. This book will guide you from simply deploying a container to administrate a Kubernetes cluster, and then you will learn how to do monitoring, logging, and continuous deployment in DevOps. The initial stages of the book will introduce the fundamental DevOps and the concept of containers. It will move on to how to containerize applications and deploy them into. The book will then introduce networks in Kubernetes. We then move on to advanced DevOps skills such as monitoring, logging, and continuous deployment in Kubernetes. It will proceed to introduce permission control for Kubernetes resources via attribute-based access control and role-based access control. The final stage of the book will cover deploying and managing your container clusters on the popular public cloud Amazon Web Services and Google Cloud Platform. At the end of the book, other orchestration frameworks, such as Docker Swarm mode, Amazon ECS, and Apache Mesos will be discussed.

Monitoring in Kubernetes

Since we now know how to examine our applications in Kubernetes, it's quite natural that we should have a mechanism to do so constantly to detect any incident at the first occurrence. To put it another way, we need a monitoring system. A monitoring system collects metrics from various sources, stores and analyzes data received, and then responds to exceptions. In a classical setup of application monitoring, we would gather metrics from, at the very least, three different layers of our infrastructure to ensure our service's availability as well as quality.

Application

The data we're concerned with at this level involves the internal states of an application, which can help us determine...
