After working at Red Hat for a few years, in late 2014 I was assigned to a newlyestablished
team called Cloud Enablement. Our task was to bring the company’s
range of middleware products to the OpenShift Container Platform, which was then
being developed on top of Kubernetes. At that time, Kubernetes was still in its
infancy—version 1.0 hadn’t even been released yet.
Our team had to get to know the ins and outs of Kubernetes quickly to set a proper
direction for our software and take advantage of everything Kubernetes had to offer.
When faced with a problem, it was hard for us to tell if we were doing things wrong or
merely hitting one of the early Kubernetes bugs.
Both Kubernetes and my understanding of it have come a long way since then.
When I first started using it, most people hadn’t even heard of Kubernetes. Now, virtually
every software engineer knows about it, and it has become one of the fastestgrowing
and most-widely-adopted ways of running applications in both the cloud and
on-premises datacenters.
In my first month of dealing with Kubernetes, I wrote a two-part blog post about
how to run a JBoss WildFly application server cluster in OpenShift/Kubernetes. At the
time, I never could have imagined that a simple blog post would ultimately lead the
people at Manning to contact me about whether I would like to write a book about
Kubernetes. Of course, I couldn’t say no to such an offer, even though I was sure
they’d approached other people as well and would ultimately pick someone else.
And yet, here we are. After more than a year and a half of writing and researching,
the book is done. It’s been an awesome journey. Writing a book about a technology is absolutely the best way to get to know it in much greater detail than you’d learn as just
a user. As my knowledge of Kubernetes has expanded during the process and Kubernetes
itself has evolved, I’ve constantly gone back to previous chapters I’ve written and
added additional information. I’m a perfectionist, so I’ll never really be absolutely satisfied
with the book, but I’m happy to hear that a lot of readers of the Manning Early
Access Program (MEAP) have found it to be a great guide to Kubernetes.
My aim is to get the reader to understand the technology itself and teach them
how to use the tooling to effectively and efficiently develop and deploy apps to Kubernetes
clusters. In the book, I don’t put much emphasis on how to actually set up and
maintain a proper highly available Kubernetes cluster, but the last part should give
readers a very solid understanding of what such a cluster consists of and should allow
them to easily comprehend additional resources that deal with this subject.
I hope you’ll enjoy reading it, and that it teaches you how to get the most out of
the awesome system that is Kubernetes.
